Dear Colin and Dickon she starts. Then she scribbles it out furiously. At least the last three attempts had managed to make it past the salutation. Even if they had then been consigned to the flames. It just sounds so--so formal, though. It feels wrong, to be writing to Colin and Dickon in the same format as the form letters in her etiquette book.

Mary has wasted enough paper, though. Colin and Dickon know she ca be a bit of a mess. They won't hold it against her, she doesn't think. And if they do, she has plenty on them, they ought to know well enough to keep their mouths shut. On the line just below the scribbled out salutation, she tries, my dear boys but then instantly scratches that one out as well. Far too cloying, who does she think she's trying to fool

Mary kisses Dickon when she's thirteen and Dickon's fifteen. Colin doesn't even enter her mind, then - he's unkissable, still a child, while Dickon is growing taller and stronger and ruddier. Dickon laughs when she does it, when she leans over in the garden as they crouch at their weeding and presses her lips clumsily to his, and says, "Ah, lass, tha've grown bonny while I weren't watching." He puts one earth-stained hand against her arm to steady her, and draws her in again, his wide mouth smiling against hers

Awwwwww, my sad, guilty, fumbly darlings! Thank goodness Mary figures things out for them eventually! This is lovely, a really really sweet set of snapshots.

♥ Glad you liked. I kind of want to expand it. >.> I LIKE NEGOTIATIONS.

I TOTALLY ENCOURAGE THAT. Because there's no way there won't need to be waaaaaaay more negotiating, and it sounds like in this version, Mary and Dickon have had a thing for a while that Colin has been on the outside of, which would effect their dynamic, I bet.

Yesssss. It would be very complicated! Also Dickon and Colin have been cheating on Mary. COMPLICATEDER.

[psuedo_catalyst]

SO COMPLICATED. Oh wow, and I bet there is ANGST about that on all sides!

[surexit]

ALL THE ANGST.
