[37] Be careful what you wish for part 2

Jul 12, 2008 13:21

I'm definitely not going to make any wishes. They just fuck up.

But the last time this happened, I did, and it didn't fuck up. But that was just a coincidence, right?

Returning back to their own "world" had stolen the memories of this place, so when he returned, it was as if nothing ever happened - that he didn't just spend a few months in this bizarre City that was supposed to be a Nexus, potentially connecting all worlds, or just having this omniscient ability to pull and yoink people out of their respective "homes" and into this place.

So upon returning, you could say Roiben was disturbingly muddled and had stood in a random part of the City. The answers to mental questions like where am I or what is this place took a few minutes to appear, and without much hesitation, it all returned to him from the moment he had arrived to the City the first day and to the point where he had departed ( ... )

[Some great curse. Kaye had been pestered by a number of Arabian Nights-styled persons and events. Their apartment was full of sand. There were pillows and rugs of bold, rich colors, gleaming gold, strange musical instruments. Flowing fabrics covered the windows as drapes. It was like some kind of Arabian faerie kingdom. And Kaye didn't like to think about that ( ... )

[Roiben wasn't sure to think when she opened the door - he knew time passed differently in their own 'world,' and the fact that he didn't have any memories of coming here back at the courts didn't give him the moment to actually miss her.

It was still slightly overwhelming, with the new exposure to what he saw of the, um, new decorations in the apartment? But he was more muddled and overwhelmed by Kaye's greeting. Naturally, Roiben was the taller and bigger of the two, so catching her was easy enough, but she did manage to make him stumble a few steps backwards.

He winced with a tinge of guilt. How long has it been? He was hoping it wasn't too long.

Either way, his arms enveloped around her into tight, firm embrace, and he pressed his cheek against her temple.]

How...long has it been?

[Kaye hugged Roiben as if he would vanish again at any moment. After she got that out of her system, she finally answered him, trying to think.]

Two or three weeks.

[She didn't exactly keep up with the precise amount of days, but it felt like a long time. She was so glad he was here again, and yet, she wasn't, because it meant he was away from home too. And back in the City. But she didn't think about that right now.

After a moment, though, she pulled back from the hug and her expression suddenly changed to fury with the remembrance of the acorn message he left her. She hit him on the arm, but not hard at all - she had no hope of hurting him physically, nor did she want to. It was more just a gesture to show she was mad.]

Did you stay out of trouble, Roiben?
