It is a known fact that a mun who once rpsterbates will, in fact, give in to rpsterbating again, even if she had sworn never to, for the sake of her sanity.

This may be why Kitty is sitting with Sunny on her lap, an amused expression on her face.

The amused expression may be caused by the fact that Sunny is reading to her Alice in Wonderland, pausing now and again to babble about one part of the story or another.

Pretend there's an appropriate icon here for this scene.

There's a pause.

"But he's the Lion."

Poor Kitty. Mayhap she'll feel closer to him if she thinks about the fact that her name is feline?

"Ye've not met him, then." She seems certain of this, and the reason why is clear as she continues,

"Ye'd understand, if ye had."

Susan's smile is bright and shining now, and she hugs Sunny to her, beaming at Kitty.

"He's-- he's the Lion. He's a Guardian. He's -- he's wonderful, Kitty, say true."

She blinks.

"Why wouldn't he?"

"He's the same as the Man Jesus?" Blankly, then Susan shakes her head and says gently,

"He's -- the Guardians, the stories were, looked after the Beams that held up the Tower. One of them is a Lion -- mayhap it's not the same, but it -- oh, Kitty, it might as well be. He were-- it's hard to explain."

"But I'm not-- I'm not good, either, and he-- he were kind to me."

"He's in the forest betimes," Susan tells her. "Mayhap ye'll see him there."

Shifting Sunny's weight to one arm and her hip, Susan stretches out her other hand to Kitty, in comfort.

"It'll be all right."

She's a little bit shell-shocked by this, but squeezes Kitty's hand tightly and focuses on that which she understands.

"There's naught to be shamed of in being scared, Kitty, say true. But thee needn't be scared like that, not of the Lion, I wot."

"Mayhap ye will," she says hopefully. "I'd not thought I'd ever-- but I did, and so."

"I were glad to," she tells Kitty, smiling softly at them.

"Long days and pleasant nights to ye both."
