Post Nine: Dance?

[witchofthechalk]

What is this dance thing everyone's talking about now. I didn't think we had any lords here to throw balls.

[And she's not even going to ask about Morris dances....bad memories.]

I think they'd be dangous even if they didn't drink.
[She does note the tone though] They're kept in line though. So even if you were in my world you wouldn't have to worry about them. They're actually quite nice when you get to know them. (One of the few people who can say this)

Oh...I see. You must be very responsible then. [Approval is there.]

[pencilpremonition]

Well...I do my best.

...Some people around here don't think that's good enough, but...I do the best I can. It's been a lot of work making sure he's been taken care of, and making sure he'll be safe after I die.

Around here. In Mayfield?

...you intend to die soon?

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah...my 'sister' seems to think I'm not good enough to breathe just because I don't know the whole dictionary and then some.

But...it's not a matter of what I -want-. I hate being a prophet.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

That's foolish of her.

A prophet?

[pencilpremonition]

That's what my 'mother' says people like me are called. I...see the future.

Usually nasty things like people getting killed or dying in accidents.

I drown.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Seeing the future. Interesting.

How do you drown, if you don't mind my asking.

[Not a comfortable topic. Becca whines low in her throat, but only quietly, and tries to press on.]

I...fall.....off of a bridge....

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Then avoid bridges.

[pencilpremonition]

It's not that easy. Trying to change the future just makes it more difficult...and it happens anyway.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Really. You've tried it then? What exactly happend?

[pencilpremonition]

It...happens anyway.
