011: Embarrassed

[livingmyths]

I'm feeling really pretty foolish today, but, judging from the other things I saw, at least I wasn't the only one and I was luckier than some people.

Abby, thank you for taking such good care of me. And please forget everything I said about - well, about practically everything.


Mr. Stark, I'm really sorry I didn't show up to work yesterday. I know it was supposed to be my first day and all, but I... really wasn't myself. I'm at the library right now, but if you still want me I can come today.


Anybody else, well, I'm kind of gonna be working in the most out-of-the-way places I can in the library.


And is it really true that Ianto's gone? He was so nice to me. I'm gonna really, really miss him, if it's true.

Sure thing. Take your time.

I get scared kind of easily.

At night I like to be able to be outside where I can see the stars. in the woods. That's the safe place. That's where my mom told me to go.

[canisfidelus.livejournal.com]

Can't argue with your mum.

So... do I know you? My name is Rain. Well, for right now I'm Ocean Rain, but usually I'm just plain Rain.

[canisfidelus.livejournal.com]

No, just commenting where I'm probably not really wanted.

I'm Sirius Black.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I like that name. Like the dog star. I know lots of stories about that.

Hi, Sirius Black.

And it's okay for you to comment. I... I know I have to find some way to manage. Back in the other world we'd just move to somewhere warmer when it got cold. Can't really do that here.

My mother had a bad sense of names. She named my brother Regulus Black.

Hi, Ocean Rain.

I heard it snows here. If you need any help, I'm about, yeah?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

She liked stars

My mother -

She picked good names for me. I just... I can't use them anymore.

Yeah, it snowed a while ago like crazy. I just stayed here. Ianto said it was okay.

Thank you. I can always use friends. Maybe you could come see me at the library sometime?

It's sort of family tradition.

I'll even bring Moony to meet you.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'd like that!

Who's Moony?

[canisfidelus.livejournal.com]

He's my best mate.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh!

It's good that you are here together. It's hard to be alone in a strange place.

I'm pretty used to it, but it's still hard.

[canisfidelus.livejournal.com]

You'll like him, he likes books.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Then yes, I would!

Books are my best friends. They're the only things I can count on to be there.

[canisfidelus.livejournal.com]

He's exactly the same.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I think I would really like him then.

Either that or we'd make each other crazy!
