I13DT - Daughter of War

"She's alright."

"We lost a couple books we're still working on replacing. Sam's asking if she can come in."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 10:48 pm

"There's no battles in here, so it should be alright," she said after a moment's consideration.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 10:53 pm

"You can come in, Sam."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 10:55 pm

Sam looks genuinely sheepish as she ducks her head in.

"Figured I'd... give you a bit of time."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 10:59 pm

"It's alright, Mum. I'm sorry I interfered with your demonstration."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:00 pm

"What? No, that was perfectly alright," she says as she slips in and shuts the door.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:12 pm

Miranda seemed torn by the paradox of wanting to disagree but feeling bad about disagreeing with Sam. She buried it though, "If you say so, Mum."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:14 pm

"It was a sandbox of sorts. There was nothing to disrupt."

"Honestly, did you think I was angry?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:17 pm

"No," she answered truthfully.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:19 pm

"You just... left rather suddenly, aye?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:25 pm

Miranda fidgeted and gave Nailah what might have been a nervous glance.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:29 pm

"She just felt she was interrupting in a way she shouldn't have. Not that you'd get angry, just that it was something that felt... off. Right?" she says, looking at Miranda and putting her hand on her shoulder.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:30 pm

"Well I didn't... want to make anyone uncomfortable."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:36 pm

"Sort of," she says, sort of agreeing with Nailah. Then she seems to find her courage somewhere and Sam would probably catch a strong whiff of the Seer in her mental presence. "And... pushing both sides just felt off."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:38 pm

"You're more than welcome to speak up about things that make you uncomfortable. I'd never do that outside of the Danger Room."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:39 pm

Nailah smiles at Miranda somewhat proudly.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:41 pm

Miranda stands up and crosses to Sam, wrapping her up in a hug. "Okay, Mum. Sorry I worried you."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:45 pm

"Nothing to be sorry for," she says, hugging back.

"You work on speaking up, and I'll work on not making you need to."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 8:03 am

"I'll do that."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:28 pm

"Anything else you want to know about?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:30 pm

She pondered for a second, "I was wondering if you guys put up a Christmas tree. I'm told it's a tradition."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:31 pm

Nailah chuckles. "We haven't yet, but I think we will."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:36 pm

Samantha smiles.

"Aye, that's definitely on the list."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:36 pm

"There's a list?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:43 pm

"I don't think there actually is. Unless you have suggestions for what to put on it, then we could make one."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:45 pm

"Highly informal. Things mothers want to do with their daughters."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:46 pm

"I think Kay has a list of things to introduce me to... like movies and stuff. I don't know what all is on it."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:47 pm

"You're more than welcome to invite Kay over, especially if she's staying over the Christmas break."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 12:55 pm

"Glad you're making friends that want to help you catch up." she smiles.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 1:06 pm

"Kay's nice. We watched... Amelie and... Frozen," she said, taking a moment to recall each of the names. "And we had popcorn. That was pretty good."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 1:30 pm

"Sounds like your movie education is in good hands."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 1:37 pm

"Aye, doubtful that she expects you to be a movie buff overnight."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 1:55 pm

"I need to set up another movie night with her. More things to add to the to-do list." She looked at each of them. "Anything either of you want to do that I should add to it?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 1:57 pm

"Would you like us to take you to see the big tree lighting in Trafalgar Square? You could bring friends."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 2:05 pm

"Sure!" She followed up quickly with, "Is that in London?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 2:18 pm

"Aye, you can have your first time in the big city."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 2:38 pm

"Cool! I've been to Maldon a couple of times to get things, but I imagine London must be a lot grander."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 2:48 pm

"You could say that. Maldon doesn't quite compare."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Jun 04, 2014 4:36 pm

"Maldon at least has a nice art supply store."
