095: River not Rain

[livingmyths]

I decided I am going to stay out by the river for a while longer, because I'm going to be River for a while instead of Rain, so I should watch myself a little more.

People can still come visit if they want. I'm not so hard to find.

Mat, if you're around I hope your friend is doing better.

Thomas, if you want to come watch the stars one night...

I think... I think being River for a while will be good for me. They're both water, but River sort of stays put even as she moves all over.

Anyway... just didn't want people to worry.

River it is, then. Do you need anything brought to you?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

No. I have everything I need here. Thank you, Romana.

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

That's good then. Are you feeling any more... settled?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I think River will be.

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

But... you'll be Rain again soon, won't you?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I don't know how long I'll be River.

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmm.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

What?

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

I'm worried about you, being River is all well and good for a little while, but it doesn't change the problems you had as Rain - they're... still there. You'll have to face them eventually.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I know. But if I'm River I can see Rain better.

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

I suppose that could be true, you're saying you can... learn how to be a better Rain if you look at her as River?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Mmmhmmm.

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

That rather gives new meaning to the concept of self-analysis. Is it something you've done before?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, I do it a lot!

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

Well then. You won't mid if I come by a few times to check on you?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

You can come see me whenever you want.

[lady-wandering.livejournal.com]

I'll do that, then. Be well, River.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I will. Thank you, 'Mana.
