46 [Accidental Video]

[showchoirstar]

[Rachel is lying on her bed, one hand hanging off of the edge to rest on the head of her dog, staring at the ceiling with half-closed eyes. She's wearing shorts, and a tee-shirt, and worn sneakers -- she looks as if she might've just gone running. On top of that, Rachel looks exhausted, and her breathing is slow and even, as if she's drifting off

I hate when I forget which journal I'm in XD

[Juliet is finally starting to wind down for the day when she catches this on her PCD.]

As always, your song is lovely, Rachel. Would that everyone's dreams were as nice as the little girl who narrates the song.

FFFF happens to me all the time.

[showchoirstar]

[Rachel smiles somewhat sleepily when she looks up, having woken up from her brief nap.]

She's singing about her mother.

[capuletnomore]

It is a sweet song.

[showchoirstar]

It is, it's very sweet.

I was Cosette in a local production once, when I was little. My fathers signed me up for it.

[capuletnomore]

What happens to Cosette in the story? Does she find her happiness?

[showchoirstar]

She marries her true love.

[capuletnomore]

[That makes Juliet smile.]

A happy ending. Would that all stories had such happy endings.

[showchoirstar]

They are woefully rare in theatre, unfortunately.

[capuletnomore]

Rare in life as well as in theatre.

[Her face falls for a moment.]

One would think the theatre would be full of happy endings, to give the people watching hope and joy.

[showchoirstar]

Art almost always imitates life.

[capuletnomore]

[She considers that.]

How closely does it imitate, do you think?

[showchoirstar]

It would depend on what you read, I suppose.

[capuletnomore]

[Nod.]

I shall keep this in mind. Thank you, Rachel.

[showchoirstar]

You're welcome, Juliet.
