Lucy feels quiet.
She didn't know she could feel quiet, but she is, as she sits under a tree and picks at her skirt, pull threads and lint away.

She's alive.
And she still doesn't know what she thinks about that.

She doesn't sound terribly happy about it.

"I am grateful to him. I am going to give him a very nice Christmas gift. It is only if he does, that is all."

no subject
Date: 2006-07-24 07:03 am (UTC)And she's silent for several moments before answering the second question.
"Because I'm not supposed to be, Mary, and many of the people I love aren't."
