There was a knock on her door. A rather haggard knock.

And, surprisingly, a yip.

The knock was expected. The yip, perhaps less so.

"Come in," Lulu called, not at all hesitantly for all that she was concerned at the unexpected sound. "I'm in the kitchen."

Although if it were who she expected, Lulu rather thought that he'd think to look for her there anyway.

He slipped in, looking a little more pale even than usual and the puppy that toddled after him was certainly new.

"Miss Lulu? Hello. I... hope you don't mind Makejoy. She's been a bit attached."

"Not at all, Liir," Lulu said, pouring him a cup of tea. "Would she like anything, do you think? Perhaps even just some water?"

new_to_liirness January 5 2009, 01:36:48 UTC

"Water, yes," he said with a nod, looking infinitely pink over something or other.

"I got your phone message, though. Is something the matter?"

The puppy went over to sniff at Lulu since, well, she was new.

Lulu got up, filling a bowl with water from the fridge before setting it on the floor. She scritched Makejoy behind the ears before turning back to Liir.

"There are... issues at home," she said. "Political things. I need to go back to help." She sighed. "I'm... not certain I'll be coming back, at least not to stay. I do plan to come back to visit."

He almost said something foolish before nodding.

"You'll be missed," he said. "And... if you let me know you're coming, I'll make sure to have dinner waiting for you."

mistressofblack January 5 2009, 02:07:03 UTC

Smiling, Lulu nodded. "Absolutely," she said. "And... would you like to sit, for a bit? We've not spoken much of late."

new_to_liirness January 5 2009, 02:13:08 UTC

"No, I suppose not. Especially since you haven't met the puppy."

The puppy was laping water, but upon being mentioned, returned right to her daddy's side. He sat where he usually sat.

"Happy Lurlinemas. Incidentally."

mistressofblack January 5 2009, 02:18:29 UTC

"Lurlinemas?" Lulu asked. "Is that the winter holiday of your world?"

new_to_liirness January 5 2009, 02:25:58 UTC

He nodded.

"My father got me Makejoy for Lurlinemas. It was a week or so ago. A little more than that."

The puppy sniffed around a little before putting her paws on Liir's thigh. He looked at Lulu for permission to let the puppy into his lap.

"Is there anything I could help with?"

mistressofblack January 5 2009, 02:34:54 UTC

"I don't think so, no," Lulu said. "Things at home are just... tense. I'm going more to make sure that a friend doesn't overwork herself trying to fix everything."

new_to_liirness January 5 2009, 02:58:55 UTC

"Understandable," he said, though he hoped he didn't sound too upset. He would miss Miss Lulu.
