[Splashing! But the camera is on her boat, and she's just above the waterline, in and out of the water]

When all sky's are grey and it's a rainy day,
Think of the birdies in spring!
When you're up to your neck in hot water,
Be like the kettle and sin-

No, that's not right at all.

[The moon is bright but not quite full, so Lucy is still thirteen and not her real age. She's sitting on the prow of a small fishing boat, and she's looking out at the sea. It's quiet.]I wish I knew when people were going to leave ( Read more... )

[There's laughing, and it's pleased and lovely. Lucy's sitting in the middle of a field, turning around and around]

Look, look, this song makes everything tinged gold! This is much better magic than what I saw in the magician's book.

I went out today to the beach because it's the last official weekend of summer, really, and I wanted to take photographs with my device. I like to have things to remember summer when it gets colder, and it's so easy now that I don't have to sit and draw everything out.

I didn't think I could fly, but I would certainly love to try. I've been on the seas and I've been on a horse, and I've even ridden with a gryphon but wouldn't it be wonderous to fly by one's own strength ( Read more... )

[Lucy is currently weaving through crowds; she's an adult, today, because of the full moon last night, and she's managing all right until she finally heads to the square. She knows there's a curse today but she's confident in her ability to avoid it.

Oh, is she wrong.]

Mr. Arthur, I really am sorry about this morning. I'm pleased you did manage to get up, though.

[A sigh]

I've arts and crafts this afternoon. Is anyone willing to swap? I'd much rather be outside, truly! Swimming or horseback riding or even in that lesson about...bb guns?

Or canoeing?

These days come around and I always wonder who will be here. Every time it's different. In the three years I've lived in the City, I've never seen the same people every time.

So many of my friends have gone home, and I've gotten older. I wonder if they'll remember what I look like. Hullo! I'm here and I would like to see you!

[ooc: Anything goes

[This is Lucy. She's in front of a mirror, and the angle is wrong, suggesting she doesn't know this is being filmed. She's wearing a dress that's perhaps one size or two too big, and she's definitely matured. She looks grown up, almost, but still with that slight awkwardness of being a teenager. She's fiddling with her hair up, and then down]Oh, ( Read more... )

It's the third time, here. I know there will be a party, but it won't be like last year or the year before, and that's all right. I'm not too old, but with Tianzi and Cat gone, it's not the same. It's just...different, now ( Read more... )
