She slept late--well, that's half true. She woke when Caspian did, because he tripped over Lavender getting out of bed and knocked half the nightstand over.

It involved a minor fire (his pants), a slight burn to the fingers (hers), and entirely too much excitement before tea was had (for either), in Lucy's opinion. And no chocolate at all, thank you. Which isn't something that she's going to stop thinking about in the next few days, Lucy thinks, and is vaguely irritated by this.

But she's the blessing of not needing to rise so early as he, so she'd taken the chance to go back to bed, after fires were put out and burns tended to.

And she's not precisely grumpy, but Lucy finds she could use some peaceful moments after a morning starting like that, and so she's found herself a mug of tea and gone out to walk by the lake. Corella will likely be taken for a ride, later, but for the moment it's nice to stretch her legs.

She blushes, looking shyly away. "There's not much chance for that sort of thing on the pilgrimage," she protests mildly.

"Mm-hm. I was nine, when I went there--Wakka and Lulu are a few years older than I am. Chappu was my age. Wakka and Lulu pretty much raised all of us, with help from the Temple. "

"Well, I'm moving all the time. Even if I met someone, I'd only be moving on soon. The only people I'll really be around all the time are my Guardians." She gets just a shade pinker.

"They are," she says earnestly. "I'm so glad to have them with me."

"There's Kimhari, too," she says. "He was the one who brought me to Besaid, and he was always there for me growing up. But he doesn't really understand children." She laughs. "I don't think he understands humans, really. But he's always been kind to me."

She nods. "He's my Ronso friend I mentioned before."

She's suddenly a lot less animated than she was a second ago, although she's still smiling.

"Mm-hm. Wakka, Lulu, and Kimahri. And maybe my friend Tidus, the one from another world. I'd like him to come with us, if he's willing to."

"Lulu thinks I'm crazy," she admits.

She laughs. "For wanting him to come. He doesn't know anything about Spira, and he doesn't have any training in fighting or magic."

"But he's really a natural," she says earnestly. "He's already improved so much. And his father was my father's guardian. Lulu thinks I'm seeing signs in everything, but it's just too much of a coincidence. It must be the blessing of Yevon."

She nods. "In the end, it's up to him, anyway."



"What's your husband like?"

Yuna smiles. "He sounds very nice--and you seem really happy."

"Maybe he can introduce me to the chocobos," she says brightly.

She beams. "And maybe I can try and make friends with some horses."



"They're frightening, though. There's too many legs."

"All right," she agrees easily.

Horses are less scary than just weird, really.

[identity profile] night-hibiscus.livejournal.com 2006-10-18 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
"Let's go!" she agrees, excited laughter burbling in her voice.

"Hello," Yuna says shyly, inclining her head and drawing her hands into a circle.

"Can they talk?" she whispers to Lucy.

She puts out a hand cautiously to let the horse smell at it, trailing yards of white and orchid sleeve.

"She's beautiful."
