040: Giving Thanks

[livingmyths]

There are so many things I am thankful for.

First and foremost, that I'm here in the City and not back home. May whatever deities are listening know I am grateful to them as well for keeping me here.

Next for all the wonderful people and friends I have met and made here. It's hard for me to believe you all care so much for me. Very hard. But I appreciate it so very, very much.

Iron Man, you are the best friend I've ever had. You make me so very happy and I always feel special when I'm with you. Thank you for the hugs and the flying and the safety I feel when I'm with you. I'd do anything for you.

Tony, thank you for everything you've done for me. My house is so amazing. I'm safe there and I'm not scared and I even have my own bed! I love working with you and going for coffee or a picnic. You make me feel special too and pretty. I always know I can count on you and Iron Man if anything happens. You know I'd do anything - more than anything - for you.

Mat... I don't even know where to start. You make me feel like I matter and you always seem to understand what I mean. You gave me my first kiss and first date and first dance and you showed me how something I always thought was ugly could actually be really beautiful. And very pleasurable. I always end up wanting to spend more and more time with you.

Abby, you're the only person I ever remember saying that they love me, except my mother when I was really really little. And you hug me and make me do good things for myself and laugh and hug me and you're just wonderful. I hope you never leave.

Logan, the furniture you made for me was beautiful and you have been so kind to me.

Silk, I love hearing your stories about the Gods and spending time with you.

Jack, thank you for the food for my dinner today and your kindness and the money you gave me. You're wonderful!

Cat, I know you don't like me, but thank you for letting me borrow your dress for the ball. I felt all pretty in it and it was very nice of you.

Ianto, thank you for letting me work with you and saying I can stay at the Library to be safe and worrying about me. I do so appreciate it.

And everyone else, there are so many I can't even say them all. You're all special and so good to me and I am thankful for every one of you.

I mean... thank you, Rain. I don't know that I've ever had so many genuinely nice things said to me.

What do you mean?

And you're welcome. I mean all of them.

Re: 2/2

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

Nothing, I'm pretty sure I know what it means.

I know you do, that's why they mean so much to me.

You seem upset. Mat's always been so wonderful to me.

Well... I know it's a curse, but still, it's true and I wanted you to know. You - I would do anything for you.

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

I'm not upset, I promise. And I'm glad, you deserve someone wonderful.

I just want you to be my friend, that's all I need from you.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure what deserving someone wonderful has to do with things, Except that he is a wonderful friend. And he does make me happy. I didn't believe you, you know. That sex wasn't just kind of ugly and messy and not fun.

I'll always be your friend.

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

You deserve someone wonderful and you got someone who, according to you, is wonderful. Well I'm glad you saw I'm right.

Good.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I... don't think I have him. But yes, I definitely want to try it again. And maybe again and again and again.

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

What do you mean you don't think you have him? That's... great that you're so enthusiastic about it.

[ooc: Tony's mind is breaking with the "again and again and again" comment.]

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

He's not mine. Not like Cat is yours. He's just a friend who's been very good to me and showed me things.


[ooc: Hee!]

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

I... okay. Good, I'm glad you have a friend that... yes, I'm glad you're happy.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Tony?

You seem... funny? Is everything okay?

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

I'm perfectly fine, Rain. I promise.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Okay.

I wouldn't want you to be upset.

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

Do you want me to come visit? Then you can tell for sure I'm not upset.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Yes. I would. Then I could feel that it's okay.

[morethanasuit.livejournal.com]

Alright, then I'll be right there.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Okay. I'll be waiting right here for you.

[king-coffee.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Rain.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, Ianto!

[silk_for_calde]

You are too kind, Rain. It is a pleasure to spend time with you as well.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Silk!

I'm not too kind, I'm just telling the truth! And I'm glad you like to spend time with me.

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

...Am not.

All right, fine. You're welcome, Rain.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

The food was delicious, of course. I've never had something special like that before.

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

It wasn't much. I'll make you something really special, soon. You should know the difference and ride my ass when I slack.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh gosh, I wouldn't do that!

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

You should. Help keep me in line.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

But I'm just - I'm not a chef or anything. How can I do that?

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

Hey, you know what you like, right? So tell me when I don't do something you like, and I'll fix it. Easy as Beef Wellington.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Yes. I can do that. I can tell you if I like things or not.

Okay.

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

Good girl, Rain.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Why do I feel like you would pat me on the head if you were here?

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

Because you're a smart kid?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

*giggles* No head patting!

[head-chef.livejournal.com]

Not even a little?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Well.... maybe if you feed me really good food at the same time?
