Lyn : "Aren't you tired? You've been awake longer than I have." Tora : "A little, I suppose. I don't sleep to well." Lyn : "Me neither. Is something bothering you? And what have you been up to?" | |
Tora : | *sips tea* "I've been on that...contraption *points at computer* reading Malakhim's site, since you kindly left it open. Seeing how Gavrael is. Finding out about the people he lives with. I've been...thinking. About us. All of us." |
Lyn : "Tora...are you lonely?" | |
Tora : | *thinks* "I suppose we all are, in a way. I'm glad Gavrael has...a someone. *blinks* Orange pencil dear. Wrong shade." |
Lyn : *starts* "Crap! Thank you for noticing." Tora : "Not a problem." Lyn : "You have a...someone too, don't you?" | |
Tora : | "I don't know. You come here, and everything is alien, and you get this...*looks thoughtfully at hand* ...form. You're forced to change, because that's all you can do. I'm not the same as I was...then. I know things now...that I could never have known back then. Things which change me, whether I want them to or not. I doubt my paramour will be any different, even if you could afford a shell for them to... inhabit. We'd have a lot to talk about, at least." |
Lyn : | "I...understand. But I can tell you're frustrated at being here.*points* Would you like more tea?" |
Tora : | *hands over cup* "Thank you. I think that problem stems with everything being so wildly... different. You're something of a slob, you know." |
Lyn : "...And a monkey, apparently." Tora : "You're a primate! Fact. I was not being rude. I'm...I'm a... *screws up face*" | |
Lyn : | "I know what you are. And it's ok. For what it's worth, you've never offended me yet." |
Tora : "I'm honest. What can I say." |
Lyn : | *hands hot tea over* "Maybe we should send you over to visit Gavrael sometime. He's older than Gabriel and Este, maybe you'd not find it so annoying." |
Tora : *sips and chuckles* "Ah... but we'd have Mikael to deal with then, wouldn't we?" Lyn : *smiles* "They think you'd fight with him." | |
Tora : | "Only because we're so alike. I admit, the little one *points at Zafkiel* needs someone like him though." |
Lyn : "What do you mean?" | |
Tora : | "He's like Aziraphale... only happier. Too good natured. Only in Aziraphale's case, he's scarred for life, so tends to be scared of everything." |
Lyn : "Zafkiel has his own problems though." Tora : "Ah. Tzadkael. Yes. We'd like to deal with that one." Lyn : "Deal with him? It's not your place to do that, Tora." Tora : "Perhaps I will make it my place, if he upsets the little one." Lyn : *looks at him thoughtfully* "He's been here for two days and you're fond of him." Tora : "We find family in unusual places." |
