There's a girl a bit down the bar, writing in a notebook. She keeps writing, then scribbling things out, then taking a sip of a milkshake.

"Oh...damn," she says, after scribbling out for what seems the umpteenth time.

She blushes then, and looks around, seeing the woman just a distance away. She looks...vaguely familiar, but not really. She's probably seen her around the bar.

"Um...hi. Ever had one of those things that just wouldn't get written?"

Probably.

They've met once before, anyway.

Everyone meets her at least twice.

"A few times," she grins. "I tried haiku, once. I never could get the syllables to line up right. My brother's much better at poetry than I am in general. Especially the structured kind."

"Haiku's fun sometimes, unless the teacher assigns me a specific topic. I hate being pinned down to just one thing."

"If you love to do it, one thing's all you need."

angela_edmunds January 12 2007, 03:35:15 UTC

"True. But I'd rather pick it." She grins. "Hi, I'm Angela. Have we met before?"

She just has to ask.

last1out January 12 2007, 03:47:22 UTC

Course she does.

And Death grins back.

"Yeah. Not like this, though."

angela_edmunds January 12 2007, 03:51:45 UTC

Angela considers that answer. "No, it wouldn't be, would it?"

She smiles a little. This woman could be from any time and any place, and know her from...well, just about anywhere.

"Do you come here a lot?"

last1out January 12 2007, 03:58:25 UTC

"Not really. I used to come here more, but I haven't for a bit. I might again. Do you?"

angela_edmunds January 12 2007, 04:00:51 UTC

"Well, right now, I'm Bound. I don't mind so much. I was Bound a lot longer a couple of years ago." Angela swings her feet a little. "At least being Bound gives me more chances to write."

last1out January 12 2007, 04:07:16 UTC

"You like writing, then?"

angela_edmunds January 12 2007, 04:09:44 UTC

"Yeah, it's kind of my favorite thing to do." Even moreso than surfing, really. "I get nuts if I can't write at least a few words a day."

Upon reflection, Angela sometimes thinks that had been the worst part of being kidnapped. Not being able to write, or see to write, or...

Well, there had been a lot of things that had been bad about that situation.

"Do you like to keep it private, or could I see?"

angela_edmunds January 13 2007, 01:53:06 UTC

Angela bites her lip a little and nods. She's shy about it, but she doesn't mind. It's mostly prose, sort of a sci-fi/fantasy adventure, and it's obvious she's having problems with it, as evidenced by the many cross-outs.

But the storyline is good, and the writing is excellent, so she gives the notebook over to her.
