If I ever asked someone to ship me somewhere without my consent or knowledge I don't remember saying it.  Maybe I got lost. But how do I get lost from the market to my house? Can't be because I'm losing my mind to old age.

[this is where she sighs.]

Hellooo~? Anyone know which direction it is to get back to the Empire? Thank you~.

You'll go back, one day. But I won't be there.

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[she stares at him for a little bit, and the fact that they're not home is the only reason she'll say this.] ...You weren't there for eight hundred years Abel. I'm not going back if I have to wait another eight hundred years to see you again.

...

[something in his eyes softens; he's sorry. he knows he is, but he also knows he'd done what he'd had to, and would do so again.]

I'm... sorry.

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[She cuddles the pillow to her chest and sighs into it. She got that he never really listened to her but she couldn't seem to think of who was so important that she was nothing compared to them.] ...Just don't leave me here, alright?

[priestish.livejournal.com]

[he slings an arm lightly around her shoulders, pulling her a bit towards him.] ...Of course not.

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[she nestles up against him and smiles a little] Good.

[priestish.livejournal.com]

...Maybe we'll be here for another eight hundred years or so. How far will that get me?

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

Depends. What do I get to break during that time?

[priestish.livejournal.com]

Oh, well... let's see. The castle regenerates itself if you--

...You're not taking about the castle, are you?

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

No, no I'm not~.

[priestish.livejournal.com]

[a haggard sigh] So cruel. You'd really beat me up? [GOD HE ALREADY KNOWS THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION, Y SO CRUEL LIL SIS]

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[CAUSE YOU DITCHED ME FOR 800 YEARS, GDIT BROTHER] I think I have the right to!

[priestish.livejournal.com]

[WHAT HIS SOULMATE DIED AT HIS BROTHER'S HANDS AND THEN HEKILLED HIM, YOU'D BE EMO TOO] Can you at least go easy on me? I'm fragile! Very delicate! A weak constitution!

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[AND YOU'D BE ANGRY IF THE ONLY LIVING SANE RELATIVE THERE IS DITCH YOU FOR A DEAD WOMAN] Oh please. That's a lie. Don't make me hurt you know. Besides, what happened to the "My head is bleeding, ow. Seth I'm sorry!"

[priestish.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes... It's... t-terribly painful... I don't think... I can stand it... The world is going black... [flops onto his back on the bed]

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[places pillow over his head] You are such a faker. A bad one at that.

[priestish.livejournal.com]

[muffled] You love me anyway.

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[pulls pillow away, and being a nice sister will give him a little kiss on the forehead.] I do, my silly brother.

[priestish.livejournal.com]

[f-fffff, Seth, you're too good to him]

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[Yes. Yes she is. Now then, she's going to flop back down comfortably onto the bed and lightly kick him. more like lazily tap him with her foot.] So we can live here as brother and sister, right?

[priestish.livejournal.com]

Mm...

[he sits up on an elbow, looking at her a moment before pulling something out of his coat - a picture, (http://i48.tinypic.com/35krfx2.jpg) slightly rumpled and certainly old, handing it to her, voice soft]

Esther already knows. She found this, during... a period of chaos in the castle.

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[she stares at the picture, silently. She seems to go completely silent, her breathing even coming to a stop. She is staring very intently at the woman's face though.]

Who...Abel...who is she?

[priestish.livejournal.com]

[he stares at her in silence for long seconds.]

...Seth? Who is...?

[...no. she can't be saying... no. don't jump to conclusions; it wouldn't... she couldn't forget her. none of them could.]

[alessergoddess.livejournal.com]

[She had to have known that woman. As a child she rarely attached herself to anyone. She shut her eyes and tried to think but it wasn't there.]

Why am I with her in this picture? Why...?
