Subject: The trails of her velevet dress fly behind her as she quickly walks in. Author: Lorilei Wise [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 17:49:14 05/09/01 Wed These eyes of deep brown hold tears that refuse to be set astream down her ivory cheeks. Her pearly teeth grit as she holds the stne in her throat that hurts her so. She does not take notice of the pain, for there is a much greater pain in her stomach as she thinks back to the last events. Again she was made to be the manor fool. Even since she became quiet, they have always found some way to hound her with embarassment. Again she is left to hold back the salt water of her eyes. Furthermore, Henry was nowhere to be found. Again he has run off, most likely to be with the local parson, fantasizing over his future as a holy man. All she would need is her best friend's smile to make her day better. She bites her lip to keep it from quivering as she sits upon the edge of the main funtain, again pulling out her literature, and begins to work on her art again. Her even more so harsher than usual, as she takes her pain and anger out on the paper she writes upon. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date He rises suddenly from his same perch on the bench, concern writ on his handsome features. He moves closer, a soft, tanned hand placed on her shoulder. "Forgive me, gentle lady, but I could not help noticing your distress. Is there anything I can do?" (NT) Marcus Trent 18:48:51 05/09/01 Wed The hand had shocked her, and she jumped in her perch, her ink bottle suddenly tipping over onto the cobblestone pathway, breaking and splatting ink in all corners... she quickly gets on her hands and knees... blushing furiously, and quickly talking to conserve her embarassment.. "I am fine, yes..... just... just a little event during the feast is all... yes... " Her quiet voice is barely heard as she takes the broken peices in her hands, which are now covered in ink.. (NT) -- Lorilei Wise, 20:15:04 05/09/01 Wed He smiles gently, bending also to gather the shattered glass. "Careful, there's a sharp piece near your knee." He brushed it away, his eyes finding hers. "I'm sorry, I suppose I didn't give you much of a chance to notice my approach. Forgive me." He gave a smile. (NT) -- Marcus Trent, 16:27:05 05/10/01 Thu She looks up fr a moment, then looks back down, trying to clean up the mess... "It is fine... no need to apologize" She says, and wipes the back of her hand to her nose, and under her eyes, keeping the ink away from her... she takes her handkerchief and tires to wrap the peices of glass in in, so that she could find a place to throw it away... the hemming f her dress is slattered with in, amng other things... She takes a deep breath and stands up straight, "Thank you..." (NT) -- Lorilei, 18:43:03 05/10/01 Thu He straightens, ink-saturated hands holding the shattered pieces of glass. He offers to take the handkerchief full of shards as well. "I must insist. I'm not usually one to announce my presence. Are you sure you are all right?" He takes the rag from her fingers gently. (NT) -- Marcus Trent, 15:54:03 05/11/01 Fri She gives the rag to him gratefully... "Yes I am fine... just a bit jumpy I suppose... " She smiles alittle... laughing at the situation... "I was foolish to let the problem bother me... " She loosens... feeling more comfortable... a smile from her mouth is all it takes before she begins talking with ease... "My family is all have they're garments on alittle too tight... " She shakes her head slightly... and looks to her ink hands... Lorilei 13:38:21 05/13/01 Sun He laughs, russet eyes twinkling gently. "We can all be like that from time to time." He stops, smiling apologetically. "I am sorry again...I fear I have not introduced myself. Marcus Trent, newly arrived." (NT) -- Marcus Trent, 17:54:55 05/13/01 Sun Nods... "Lorilei Wise..." she smiles softly... and then looks to her paper... closing her book... and holding it to her chest... (NT) -- Lorilei Wise, 18:48:32 05/13/01 Sun He smiles again. "It is a pleasure, Lorilei - if I may call you that..." He takes the handkerchief in one hand, the other making a sweep of greeting, almost a mockery of the guesture. (NT) -- Marcus Trent, 20:34:59 05/14/01 Mon Her fingers glide across the paper of the book... "I do not mind, Mr. Trent... " feeling slightly uncomfortable saying his first name. (NT) -- Lorilei Wise, 19:08:00 05/15/01 Tue He smiles, feeling he is imposing by the nervousness of her stance. "Then please, do call me by my first name. Unless of course, you feel uncomfortable." He paused, taking out a pocket-watch. "I fear I am pressing your time. Forgive me, Lorilei." He nods, and gives a wink before turning off to deposit the inky rag into the nearest receptical...
