My honeymoon was cut short because some sadistic bastard hurt my daughters

I don't know, Liz. But I understand what you might be feeling. And I'm sorry. I can help you rip. Sibling bonding and the like.

[elizabeth_long]

I love you, Peter.

We're going to do things, right? You're going to do...that thing you do?

[father_peter]

I love you too, Elizabeth.

Hell fucking yes I am going to.

[elizabeth_long]

Thank you.

[empress_tasha]

I think we're going to have to take a limb each. I'm sure there are plenty of other people wanting to hurt that sick fuck, too. If I ever get my hands on him...

It's okay if I stay with you for a bit, right? I don't really want to let Hope out of my sight...

[elizabeth_long]

Tasha, you are welcome here absolutely any time for as long as you want.

Thank you for being here for Hope. And Fiona and Zoe too.

[empress_tasha]

Thank you, Liz. Thank you. I'll be there for them, and for you, always.

Oh, Elizabeth. I wish I had the answers for you. I don't, though. I don't think any amount of wisdom can make us understand a man like that. And well we may not want to.

I'm so sorry he ruined so much. Hope will be alright. Your brother owns a hospital, and she will never be lacking in the very best parenting, or medical attention. After what Fiona went through, her silence isn't surprising. She probably just needs to deal with it at her own pace, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't encourage her to talk when she's ready. But really, you know all this anyway. You're one of the best there is at taking care of people. Your daughters couldn't be in better hands.

[elizabeth_long]

I don't want to, no.

She knows we'll listen when she's ready. I'm just afraid she won't be ready. I worry for her. For all of them. And I wish I'd been here when it happened.

[lady_with_thee]

Yes... I worry about that too. You got here as soon as you could, Liz. I know it will mean so much to them that you came back from your honeymoon to be with them. You haven't done anything wrong. You've done everything right, sweetheart. You're a fantastic mother, and your girls are very lucky.

[elizabeth_long]

I could never stay away when I was needed.

Which I see is the same of you. Thank you for coming for him.

I'm so sorry I didn't know about it when it happened! I was dealing with another crisis... there are far too many of those. If you think I could help anyone by visiting there, I shall. Goddess... of all the people... I cannot understand why one would hurt Hope and Fiona.

[elizabeth_long]

I didn't know either. I was in France, completely unaware. Argh.

You are just as welcome here as Tasha is. And I don't know either. How could he?!

[seminalsemiotic]

I'll be there, then. After hearing what happened to them, I have to see my girls with my own eyes.

[elizabeth_long]

Yes. I did too.
