017 - Feet to the Sky

[ambitious-woman.livejournal.com]

[Since the labyrinth was such a well received addiction to the Plane Reinette has returned -- with a new escort of sorts. A strong, sturdy tree, though that is only part of the story. Attached to it is a wide, carved wooden swing. There is a rope attached to it as well, designed to prevent the user from swinging too high. Though that hangs rather uselessly to the side. Reinette is in the swing, gently pushing it back and forth with a single satin shoe as she looks up at the stars]

When do I not enjoy myself?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, I suppose the occasion could come up where you don't. Making sure you are.

Need a push?

[ambitious-woman.livejournal.com]

I find myself quite well, with no immediate complaint.

[she smiles briefly]

I do not need one, but it would be lovely all the same.

What of you?

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

[steps behind her, gives her a gentle push]

Well, you know how it is. Comme ci, comme ca. Like this, like that.

[the swing is low enough that her skirts move against the ground, back and forth. She listens to the sound]

Only without any point of reference, I cannot think what it is like at all.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Well, I haven't had any horrible monsters to chase as of late. So, maybe a little more boring than usual.

[and shall we attempt to change the subject? Let's.]

What's the rope here, for? Bit in the way of the momentum of the swing.

[ambitious-woman.livejournal.com]

You do not wear boring. There is no room for it underneath your suit or in your thoughts.

[but she will allow it]

It is to bring be back down to earth.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

I don't wear it, but sometimes it wears me. Or at least tries to stain my perfect action-adventure veneer.

[makes a face at the rope, then pulls his sonic out to cut it]

Well, we can't have that, can we?

[ambitious-woman.livejournal.com]

[she arches her head backward, as if to catch a glimpse of his suit and examine it for stains]

Vandalizing my swing is hardly boring, I think.

[she is smiling]

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

No, and we all need a little excitement in our lives, I think.

[and he sets it to the right setting so the extra rope breaks]

There we are. No reason for you to get tied down!

[ambitious-woman.livejournal.com]

[she watches as the rope slithers to the ground, emulating a snake]

Is that what I am?
