Title: Drabble #17
Written for: ginamak
Prompt: something from Lucy's POV, about her parents? She can be any age.
Notes: I kind of misplaced ginamak's original request from her Support Stacie bid, and so last night I asked her for a new prompt. Of course, I then *found* her request...but wrote this one anyway.

Drabble Number Seventeen )

she has a wonderful example set for her by her parents

She really does. As well, she has a wonderful example set for her by her grandparents.

Lucky girl.

I just love this image. Happy Peter and Rose, Lucy getting an idea, perhaps, how lucky she is to have parents like hers :)

Lucy and her parents (mostly Peter, but also sometimes Rose) do clash; but she never, ever doubts that she's loved, or that her parents love each other. In which fact she's just about the luckiest girl in the world.

Hello! I know I've beem MIA lately, but I'm hoping to catch up on all my reading before Christmas.

Anyway, couldn't resist commenting here and noting that Lucy seemed a bit surpeised to see her parents sitting there alone. Was she expecting her sibling to be there with them? I know I've been away for a while so I don't know if we ever received any info on the question raised by Chicklet73's last fic. Or are you just going to keep tormenting teasing us?

She lives! She lives!

(I hope the bastards haven't been getting you down...too badly)

Lucy was fully expecting that her parents would be with her sibling, yes. :)

I promise, you'll get more of the story. But not this month. Suffice it to say that Peter and Rose *do* have a second child together.

Perhaps said younger sibling was swept off by Graeme and Eirlys in an effort to give Peter and Rose a little quality time together, with Lucy being well old enough to fend for and entertain herself?

*g* That's exactly the scenario I had envisioned.

Da was leaning into her mum, saying something with a small smile. Her mum turned to him, and said something in reply that made her Da laugh.

No doubt reminiscing about the pre-Lucy days of skinny-dipping on a whim. XD

She blushed as she watched her Da kiss her mum, and she turned to take another walk along the shore.

Yays.

It's good for her to have such a healthy example set by her parents-both in terms of their relationship together and in terms of not helicoptering around her. There are definitely parents out there who would never have let her go on walkabout alone regardless of her proximity to adulthood.

Perhaps about the time she beat him to the water, one memorable summers' morn.

Oh, yes. Peter and Rose are both protective of her, but they're also very, very good about being restrictive. In Croy, I think she's had free roam for quite a while; and even in London, or at school, she's given a good sense of freedom and self-determination (although there is certainly a guard watching her at school, whether or not she realizes it).

An actual race, or did he come outside looking for her and spin around like Wonder Woman trying to figure out where she'd gone?

(although there is certainly a guard watching her at school, whether or not she realizes it)

She might not realize it when she's younger, but by the time she's a preteen? Yeah, she'd know exactly who they were and where they were, although I think as Peter and Rose's daughter she would know well enough that there are good reasons she's got a guard and wouldn't do anything foolish like try to ditch him or her.

He woke one morning to find she was already up--and, more specifically, to find a note that said "I'm swimming"; as you might imagine, he wasted *no* time in heading downstairs and joining her.

she'd know exactly who they were and where they were,

Heh. She's actually 10 by the time she cottons on; she whinges, but Peter gets her to agree not to be too hard on the poor bloke. And by the time she hits her teens, she realizes that it's actually a pretty good thing to have him there, and that her parents might just know what they're doing after all.
