093: Accidental Video Post

[[After directing Harry as to where to find Thomas, Rain had done as Thomas and 'Mana had asked and gone deep into the woods to hide. She tucked herself away in a hollow beside a rock, half burying herself in leaves, unaware that her Network device had begun broadcasting from on top of her backpack where she'd left it, letting anyone who cared to watch Rain as the exhaustion and fear of the past two days caught up with her and she slowly drifted into sleep.

It continued to broadcast as she slept, catching her restlessness and occasional murmurings throughout the night.]]

Rain, love, your network device is on.

She rubbed at her face, sitting up to lean against a rock.

Must have hit it when I was covering myself in leaves.

Are you okay, 'Mana?

Yes, I'm fine, especially now the circus has disappeared as quickly as it arrived.

Good. I'm glad.

Are you in the Deep Forest?

As deep as I could get before my legs gave out.

That was very smart, but it's safe to come home now. Can you make it on your own?

Maybe in the morning, Romana. I'm tired.

Are you warm enough? Do you need anything?

I used to sleep outside all the time, 'Mana, I'm fine.

Thomas wants me to go home, though.

I won't admit that I'd rather have you inside somewhere as well, but I'd rather you feel safe.

I like sleeping outside.

And Thomas says it's okay if I want to sleep here.

It's far to get home.

Then rest, Rain, it's been a long week, you've earned it.

Yes. And my house is lonely anyway.

Where is Mat?

He's gone for a while. Helping a friend.

That's nice of him, but are you alone in the house, then?

Well... yes. We're the only ones who stay there.

Are you alright being there alone?

Oh gosh, yes. I lived alone there for a long time before Mat needed a new place to live.

I just... I got used to him being there. And holding me at night.

I'm sure he'll be back soon, Rain, and you won't be alone then.

I know.

I just miss him.

I know you do.

But I was always alone before so I'll be just fine.

Well, let me know if you need any company, I'm sure I can come out some evening if you'd like.
