[warriors_swan]

Walks up behind her but doesn't say anything.

[littletreewitch]

*throws the last stone harder and bends to pick up some from near her feet*

Hello.

[warriors_swan]

Hello angel. Swan kneels down picking through the sea shells in the sand.

[littletreewitch]

How...How have you been? *tosses another stone into the water but it doesn't skim*

[warriors_swan]

Surviving. Swan shrugged looking out on the ocean.

[littletreewitch]

*she chances a quick glance at him* Where've you been?

[warriors_swan]

On the streets.

[littletreewitch]

Oh.

*goes back to tossing stones*

cause I came looking for you but you weren't here so.

*shrugs*

[warriors_swan]

I was staying away from everyone.

[littletreewitch]

*throws her last stone before wrapping her arms around herself*

I see.

*falls silent for a while*

I've been thinking about leaving.

[warriors_swan]

I figured you were.

[littletreewitch]

Is that all you have to say?

You're just going to let me go like that?

[warriors_swan]

You seem convinced that Mercy and I are involved. Nothing I say can convince you that we're not.

I'm not going to beg you to stay if that's what you want.

[littletreewitch]

All I am convinced of is that she still wants you, who wouldn't? You...you're...

*looks back at the ocean*

No, I don't want you to beg but it would be nice to hear that you don't want me to go. After all, you're all that's holding me here. You're all that has ever really kept me on this Earth.

[warriors_swan]

Do you think she gets everything she wants? That any of us do?

Swan watched her. I was all that was holding Mercy here once. I'm not going to ask you to stay if you don't want to.

[littletreewitch]

I don't know Swan, I don't know what she doesn't and doesn't get. But I know I don't, Snake, Hope, Rayanne and so many others don't.

*shakes her head* Maybe if you had given her a sign you wanted her to stay you two might have been happy together. *looks over at him* It's not a case of asking us to stay, it's a case of us knowing that we're wanted and needed. I've felt like you've not wanted or needed me in so long.
