Ada has found some small mending or other with which to occupy herself, and now sits bent over it, her brow all scrunched in concentration.

She is, in all honesty, waiting for Richard, whenever he might come and whatever he might require. But she would be glad of any other company, as well.

T: He's coming, I promise. Once I finish the Curio thread and figure out just how upset he is. *cough*

[dearcousin]

Oh, don't worry about it! XD

"Miss Clare?" Fanny says tentatively.

[dearcousin]

"Oh!" She starts and looks up. "Hello!"

[modestnature]

"I am sorry if I interrupted you."

[dearcousin]

"No, not at all. I was simply surprised." She smiles.

Richard has cleaned up a bit, gathering himself before going to visit Ada. He's still upset, but quiet now, and knocks on her door.

[dearcousin]

She is on her feet at once. "Yes? Come in."

[jarndyceheir]

"Good evening, dearest." Perhaps closer to morning, now, but still. He kisses her cheek. "I'd rather hoped you'd managed to fall asleep, as late as it is, but I saw the light."

"I said I would wait. Won't you come sit?" she asks worriedly.
