Homecoming (backdated - for Percy)

[dragon_dealer]

Cimorene's not shaken and crying this time. She's angry, but she has nothing and no one to direct her anger against. It's what she hates most. She threw some rocks in the lake, she took a long walk, and her hair's a mess, dress a little torn up. But finally... finally she comes home. There's really nothing else to do.

Percy's waiting for her; he made supper as usual, served Haynes in his room, and then cleaned things up. There's still her portion on the table, covered with a plate to keep it warm.

Now he's waiting in their room, sitting on the bed by candlelight and whittling a dragon out of an apple twig.

She doesn't eat, but she does take a moment, to clean a little in the front room. So he probably hears her a little bit before she finally comes in. "...hey."

[fingersofleaf]

"Hey." He looks up and smiles at her.

[dragon_dealer]

"...sorry."
