Another holiday, of sorts (Open)

[faramir_hurin]

There is another one of those Earth holidays today. Father's Day. My father is here but I am sure he does not wish to see me. I am myself a father, but my son is gone. This reminder makes it hurt more than I really thought it would. I'll see him again, and his mother, I just don't know when

There he was, in the park again. What was with him an brooding outside? Dream would always hole himself up in his realm and broadcast his brooding to everything that he could. But this interest in walking... No, only the Prodigal Son had ever done his brooding that way.

Desire didn't like the Prodigal Son.

It had been on edge since the conversations with John - those had not gone the way it had wanted. And now it just didn't know what it wanted in the first place, anymore.

Pushing that aside, Desire clad itself in its disguise. Drawing the comfort of at least faked serenity over its troubled thoughts, it started towards Faramir.

Desire took his arm, tucking into the crook of his elbow and having the Tabitha persona beam up at him. "I would be honoured."

This was interesting already. Desire had to wonder what other things he and John had talked about.

A response is on the tip of my tongue--a modern, witty sort of thing I'm not sure that I can say. Her closeness makes me bold and now is a time for acting and not thinking.

"But would you be pleasured, lady?" Thank Eru the hotel is not very far.

Desire smiled up at him through her lashes. "I think I will be very pleasured, m'lord."

It is not long before we reach her door. I, wisely--in my opinion--choose to keep my mouth shut until we are there. My nerves go from strained to calm and back again, depending upon how much I concentrate on her presence.

The problem with the concentrating on her and having my nerves go is that... It's better to be nervous, at least in public. But I can speak again.

"I would have you pleased. If being in control of things would be enjoyable for you, I would try it." I smile slightly and do turn pink. "I'm told it might be good for me, that I would enjoy it, and I trust you."

Desire paused outside its door, looking Faramir up and down. Best not show him the toy room, hm? Though it did have a bedroom, fairly free of anything that would make his innocent little head explode.

Unlocking the door, she held it open and gestured him inside. "Please come in."
