Hangovers, of a sort [open]

Oct 28, 2006 08:24

There was a light visible under the door to Ali's, in the very early morning. For those with exceptional healing, pacing can be heard: human and canine.

There was a knock at her door. Victor had a gift for Ali, as a thank-you for her wonderful company when they found the rings the other day.

There's an answer, after a few minutes. Ali doesn't look much better than when she let Spider in. She stared at Victor in some confusion.

"Don't you have a key?"

"I do, but I wanted t' knock first. I haven't been over f'r a while. A-are you okay?" She scanned her face, then swallowed.

She shakes her head, and doesn't bother brushing the hair out of her eyes afterwards.

She leaned up, shakily, to move her hair back.

Ali allows her to, and manages half of a teeny smile. "Thanks. Come in. This is your house too."

There was a huge relief that washed through her insides at those words. It was nice to know that she had a home. She stepped in. "Is there anythin' I can help with?"

vicioussweetie October 28 2006, 14:27:08 UTC

She shakes her head again, though she moves her hair for herself this time. "I don't think so. What brings you by?"

Casey watches Victor for a moment before padding off to his giant doggie bed to rest.

Oh! Yes! That! She searched in her purse and pulled out a necklace. It was tangled around a paintbrush, and she extracted it carefully, giving it a fair amount of attention. It was a fairly short necklace that had shiny, gaudy buttons. It was tastefully bizarre. "A present."

vicioussweetie October 28 2006, 14:43:19 UTC

She can't help but grin at that. "I love it. It's gorgeous. Could you help me put it on?"

victormakesart October 28 2006, 14:46:43 UTC

She smiled and nodded eagerly, moving behind her to clasp it behind her neck. "'M glad."

She pulls her hair up out of the way with her hand and crouches a bit so Vic can see what she's doing.

victormakesart October 28 2006, 14:56:45 UTC

After a little bit of trying, she managed to get it closed (silly itty bitty closer-thingys) and she stepped back.

vicioussweetie October 28 2006, 22:22:29 UTC

"Thank you." She straightened it a bit, then turned to face Victor again.

victormakesart October 28 2006, 22:28:38 UTC

She smiled at her. "Anytime."

vicioussweetie October 28 2006, 22:45:22 UTC

"So what's the occasion?" She wave Vic towards the sofa and chairs, going to make tea. It's a slow process now.
