124. Plans

I've been thinking about it for the past few days, and I think...I think I wanna have a tea house. It was...I liked it. Anyone wanna point me in the right direction for a place where I could put one? The place it was...y'know, before...isn't what I can use anymore.

[She's thought about how doing something like this is pretty much declaring, after all this time, a belief in the permanence of her situation. ...Oh well. It's also something to do and maybe it'll give other people here a chance to just not think about some stuff, if they need the chance.]

Hey, Elicia? D'you think I could come and...look at some of those, uh, pictures you had? ...The ones from the orchard, I mean.

[Alternately, you can meet up with her on her way to the clothing shop to see if there's anything...well, if there's anything.]

It happens. Better the glass than me.

[a nod, but nothing else really.]

Sorry. I shouldn't have gotten so mad over what you said.

[a bit more silence first]

I just wanna know if it's all real. If this would even be happening if we were where we belonged.

I can't say for sure. Wouldn't say it's impossible, though.

Isn't it? They wouldn't accept you and Meltokio doesn't want much to do with me either.

Who said anything about Meltokio? The way things are going, all my influence will be gone pretty soon anyways.

...Well it's where you live. And I don't think I'm gonna be able to stay there.

We'd figure something out.

[she just throws her dish towel in the sink and starts looking around for the band-aids]

Here, I already got one for you.

Thanks.

[...then you are doing it. Have a hand again.]

[Sure, sure. He'll fix her right up.]

Thanks.

[arguing with you is so tiring.]

[Well he is kind of like a brick wall some days.]

Anytime.

[She needs to hit a brick wall some days.]

I'm sorry I yelled at you too.

Sometimes I need it, you know.

[Want a hug, dear?]

Yeah but...not all the time.

[yes. Hugging is go.]

Whatever you say.

[Yay!]

[he's doing most of the hugging and she is doing more of the making herself as small and huggable as possible.]

[Well, that works too.]

[...She may be having a moment. It's so dumb to get this way over a drinking glass]

[True, but Zelos doesn't really care. She can have all the moments she wants.]

[Even the ones where he ends up with a wet shirt and a ninja who suddenly feels very awkward?]

[Yeah, even those ones.]
