Subject: Being pulled out of her thoughts by the sound of his voice, she halts, turning around to face him.

In reply to: Lord Nickolai 's message, "*His gaze rested 'pon distant waves and far-away places, a soft sadness in his eyes. He looks with almost longing toward a distant shore and only half-heard Anne's remark...* A heart is deeper than an ocean and more tumultuous than the tempestuous storms thrashing it's surface... *A pain flitted his eyes but an instant 'fore he turned his gaze to Anne...* My dear girl, you would be swept away by one well sized wave standing there! You are a silly dreamer, are you not..." on 12:40:34 09/18/01 Tue

She notes the strange look in his eyes, but does not ask about it, not wishing to pry.

Amusement dances in glittering eyes, a grin crossing soft lips.
"If one does, I know how to swim. Besides, it would probably carry me away to some far away place, and I always have wished to travel more." There is an almost childlike playfullness to her voice, amusement becoming more evident at his latter comment. "A silly dreamer? My old friends would have found that amusing. No, that I am not. I rarely dream, and when I do, it is almost never about something silly. I just...think over things. What has happened, what is happening, and what will happen."

The grin fades into a curious smile, eyes watching him for a few moments. Completely forgetting where she was standing she lets go of her skirt and clasps her hands behind her, skirt tumbling to meet the water, the light material quickly becoming soaked.
"Why? Is there something wrong with dreaming?" There was no challenge in her words, mearly a curiousity.

Not all dreams are silly, but some can be very, very painful... Some dreams make people leave and shatter the security of those who loved them. Dreams can take a person away from loved ones and desert them in an unknown place with little to call one's own and leave them to realize what they lost. *the pain again in his eyes, he looks at his feet for a moment, then shakes his head and returns his gaze to Anne* Your dress, it is now soaked. I do not think you intended that... *He smiled* (NT)Lord Nickolai12:26:03 09/19/01 Wed
