I'm not I'm not I'm not I'm not I'm not I'm not I'm...

[Curled in a ball, Del is very securely wedged into a nook in the outer walls o the castle. After this event she didn't know what to do. Hands clamped over her ears, she's sniffling as she babbles to herself

[Of COURSE Sherlock notices, Sherlock notices everything. What's surprising (even to him, a little) is that he deviates from his path and goes to hover near her.

He stands there, his hands in his pockets, waiting to see if she'll even notice that he walked up. It's part selfish curiosity, part tiny-sliver-of-something-he-won't-call-concern.

... He's not exactly the comforting type.]

[fishy_go_byebye]

[OF COURSE.

She wedged in there tight, her arms wrapped around her legs, and her face buried in her knees.]

I'm not broken...

[workaphilic]

[nope, not going to notice him, apparently. He watches her for another few seconds.

Then he sighs, loudly, and stoops to her level.]

Of course you aren't, it's idiotic to even to suggest it. Thought you were brighter than that, honestly.

[fishy_go_byebye]

[She peaks up at him from her knees, eyelashes all spikey and eyebrows lowered in confusion.]

Can't go higher than the sun.

[Ianto's walking along and pulls his coat tighter around him, slipping his hands into his pockets as he walks past before spotting her. Turning back he crouches in front of her and rests his hands on her arms gently.]

Del, Del what's wrong?

[fishy_go_byebye]

[Shivering sniffling.]

I'm not...

[kinky_stopwatch]

You're not what love?

[Replies as he takes off his coat and wraps it around her]

Come on, let's get you inside.

[fishy_go_byebye]

[She resits very lightly, not enough to stop from being all wrapped up.]

You wouldn't call me that...

[tehoniongirl]

[she's not looking for her, but something about Del's presence always drew Jilly's attention.

And when she spots her this time, the familiar smile is instantly replaced with worry] Del?

[her original path is abandoned as she hurries in Del's direction] Oh, Del....what happened?

[fishy_go_byebye]

[It's Jilly. Oh, it's Jilly it's Jilly it's jillyjillyjilly...

Del reaches out with her hands, grasping for her.]

I... I just... I didn't...

[tehoniongirl]

[there's no hesitation. She steps into that grasp, putting her arms around Del as best as she can, holding onto her]

It's okay, now. It's alright.

[fishy_go_byebye]

[A sniffle and Del buries her head against Jilly's shoulder]

He called me...
