Open... (and also attn. Morgause)

[lionbright]

Morgause could maybe use a little help... the newest arrival has just fainted at her feet in one of the mansion's bathrooms.  The door is ajar and everyone's decent.

Full story is here.

[nothing like a complex plot line for newbie trial by fire.  what was I thinking.]

She did, at least, manage to keep him from cracking his head on the sink, and is now kneeling beside him in some perplexity.

"Mother?" Gawain calls from just down the hall, "Are you down here? I can leave the basket - "

He sets his hand on the door mostly by accident (any inherent nosiness around doors is unconscious), which, of course, makes it swing open. "Oh. I say."

Halfway to her feet, she sinks back again. It is possible she's never been so glad to see him. "Good day to you."

"Good day, Mother," Gawain says, and sets the basket out of the way by the door before coming in.

He crouches down beside her, hands loose on his knees, and kisses her cheek respectfully. "Is it safe to move him?"
