42nd Legend [Voice; Accidental]

Jul 20, 2009 20:21

What-

No, stop, don't, don't do that.

Why are you- Where are you going? Stop! STOP IT! Don't leave, why are you-

Please, don't-

NO!

What, what on Earth was that?

...

Just, just a nightmare. Just a nightmare.

[ooc: Someone didn't check the network before sleeping. Nightmare is everyone he cares about leaving him.]

[Anne hears Arthur crying out -- since Merlin left, she has been keeping an eye on him, knowing that he needs someone with him -- and immediately rushes to his room.]

Arthur!

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 04:03:15 UTC

[Arthur is sitting up in bed, covered in sweat, and wide awake.]

Anne! You're- you're here.

I'm, I'm fine. It was just a bad dream. I sorry I woke you.

[Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 04:17:38 UTC

[Anne scrambles into bed with him and promptly wraps her arms around him, heedless of the sweat.]

Of course I'm here. [She speaks like it's immutable fact, written in something more permanent than stone.] And it's all right. I was having trouble sleeping anyway.

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 04:21:59 UTC

[Arthur hugged Anne back, purely for her benefit of course.]

Sorry, yes, of course you are. I just- it was just a bad dream.

[Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 04:25:45 UTC

What about?

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 04:47:47 UTC

[He sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose.]

People leaving.

[Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 04:53:42 UTC

[Anne snuggles him and says, with just the barest thread of nervousness in her voice.]

People can come back, you know.

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 04:55:15 UTC

[Arthur accepts the snuggles and gives her a small hug.]

It was just a dream.

[Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 05:04:54 UTC

But people can come back! Even if they've had a really bad fight. An apology is all it takes...

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 05:17:35 UTC

[More sighing.]

Anne, I don't want to talk about this right now.

Re: [Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 05:27:57 UTC

All right.

[Anne doesn't push the subject, but she does wilt against him just a little. If nobody ever talks about it, how will anything ever get fixed?]

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 05:55:45 UTC

[He gave her another small hug.]

Come on, if we're up we might as well have some tea and something to eat.

Re: [Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 05:58:47 UTC

[Anne jumps eagerly off the bed.]

I made some chocolate chip cookies earlier! And I made sure to pay very close attention while I was baking them, although I had this lovely thought about a nun in a convent that I wanted to follow but I forced myself to concentrate and I didn't forget a single thing! And I tasted one and it tastes good, so you don't have to pretend you like it when really you don't at all.

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 06:16:14 UTC

[Arthur gave her a puzzled look.]

A nun in a convent?

Re: [Action] ann_withane July 21 2009, 06:22:40 UTC

Oh it's ever so romantic! She took holy orders after she was spurned by her first love, only to fall in love with a dashing prince who shows up at the convent, injured after having battled a great dragon! She tends to his wounds and promises to leave the convent and marry him once he is better, but the head of the convent tells her that she made an unbreakable vow to God and she cannot leave. Broken hearted, the prince DIES, and the nun spends the rest of her life praying that they will be reunited in heaven.

Re: [Action] thefutureking July 21 2009, 06:50:09 UTC

[Arthur gave her a more puzzled look as they made their way to the kitchen.]

Do all your romance stories involve not actually being in a relationship?
