6th Royal loss

[solarhussyalert]

[First the Prince got droned, her brother didn't even know he was her brother. This put Lym in a dark mood, but when the next day Lyon also was acting the same weird way her mood worsened. She was moving in a slow way and it looks like she cried herself to sleep the next morning as she left the house]

Action 1 - Home to School

[Lym is going to school, not because its interesting, but more because being around Drone Lyon feels like she was kicked in the teeth. That being said she's just sort of shuffling there not paying much attention. If she bumps into someone, she just stares at her feet and moves around them before continuing on in a mechanical fashion.]

Action 2 - School

[Are you in the elementary school? Do you have a class with Lym? Maybe you teach one, who knows. But at the beginning of every class she asks if anyone knows anything about attaching a rune, then is generally quiet and sulky through the class before continuing her depressed shuffle to the next one.]

Action 3 - Park

[Its late and Lym hasn't gone home. She's really just sat in a swing not swinging since she saw a few drones on the way home from school. She's probably not going to be moving at this rate either but she looks utterly miserable]

Well... think of it in the way that everything is the front here. Sometimes psychological torture doesn't have any enemies you can fight face to face.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

So is that what this place is? Psychological torture?

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

I don't think I've seen anything to convince me otherwise.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I see. I kind of hoped that was over.

[She lets out a breath]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Can I be extremely cynical for a moment and say it's probably never really over, not anywhere? All most people get is periods of tranquillity, when they're lucky.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

No, cynical is all right. I'm trying not to end up being like that myself, especially with everything that happened at home, and now being here instead of being able to rebuild, and well... Brother.

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

When you go home, you can rebuild. And wouldn't your brother want you to be strong in the meanwhile?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I guess. Its just easier to be strong when... Well when you know what is going on.

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

It might be easier, but that certainly doesn't mean it's impossible this way.

[Canada watches the girl for a moment, then makes a soft, sympathetic sound.] You might need a night to recuperate before you get started on that strength, though. So do you have any friends you can stay with for tonight? One night out won't get you in trouble, and then tomorrow, I bet, you'll find your bravery.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Not really. I haven't been here very long and I spent most of my time with my family. Maybe I'll just stay on the swings.

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Why don't you come over to my house? I don't think staying all night on the swings will make you feel much better, sweetheart.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Are... You sure?

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Of course. [She tries, when her boss allows it, to always keep her home open for whoever needs it. Usually this means immigration, but living in Mayfield has simply made it mean that whoever shows up in her living room gets her attention and whatever sort of thing they need to help them along.]

My name is Canada, by the way.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Canada. I'm Lymsleia Falenes but everyone just calls me Lym that knows me.

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Lym. [The nation gives a warm smile.] It's nice to meet you, too.

[She hops off the swing and forces a bit of a smile before bowing]
