Gavroche is up a tree, outside.

Garion peers up from his spot at the base of the tree as a leaf drifts down into his tea.

"Hello."

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
He gets peered right back at.

"Hi. Sorry."

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
He shrugs.

"That happens. Add a little extra flavor, perhaps."

"Garion."

He puts his tea down before giving a look either way and slinging himself up the branches. He looks around.

"Any particular reason your up here?"

He can't see one.

"I like trees", Gavroche says with a shrug.

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
He nods.

"I used to like trees. Then one day, a boy fell out of a tree on our farm and my aunt forbid me to climb them."

He shrugs.

"My wife loves trees."

"Does she still forbid it now?" Gavroche asks curiously.

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 02:57 pm (UTC)(link)
He shrugs.

"She might. I'm not listening to her about it though. Important things, yes, but not things like that."

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Gavroche nods, grinning. "It's your decision."

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:00 pm (UTC)(link)
He laughs a bit and nods.

"I should hope so. Also, there were some other things going on at the time, I think, that had to do with why she was so careful with me."

He leans on to the trunk.

"You're like me. Ask a lot of questions. I don't mind answering them, though."

He looks over at Gavroche.

"A man was trying to kill me."

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"Why?"

Yeah, insatiably curious, this boy.

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Cause I had something to do later and he didn't want me to do it."

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh. What were you supposed to do?"

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
That's another wince.

"Fix some things."

He's not saying how till he has to.

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
This time Gavroche sees it.

"Did it work?"

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
He nods.

"Yes."

At least he thinks so.

Poor, poor Garion. The deer doesn't even see the headlights yet.

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Not more doom for poor Garion?

"Good."

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
A whole five more books of it.

"I should say so."

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
He smiles.

"I bartend on the weekends. And, apparently, people call on me when they need things done that I do well."

[identity profile] street-sparrow.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
He walked right into that one.

"What things?"

[identity profile] wellthrownstone.livejournal.com 2005-10-21 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"Um...fight...things. Gods. And such."
