she moves and it's fire, fire underwater

[ex_oneiromancer912]

[Morgana is trying to read in the library by candlelight. She does so for some time, paying little mind to the candle as the wax builds up and dulls the light. Until it goes out entirely.

Annoyed, Morgana looks to the candle—her eyes flash gold—and then the candle is lit again. For the briefest moment Morgana looks satisfied, before surprise and fear move in so fast that she starts and knocks the candle over, spilling wax everywhere as it sputters out again.]

It must have been...

[And now she doesn't even have any matches.]

[He heard the sound of someone flailing, and is preceeded by a soft golden glow]

Is someone there?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

Mu? It's Morgana. [She gathers up the candle and hisses when she burns her finger on the wax. The Graceful Queen of Camelot, ladies and gentlemen.] I dropped my candle.

[lamb_of_gold]

Are you alright?

[And he's also providing about enough illumination himself to see what she's up to]

[ex_oneiromancer912]

It was only a little wax. [She shows the spilled candle.] There are flowers that glow in the forest, so I might read there instead of spending more candlewax.

[lamb_of_gold]

Alright.

Are they enough to read by?

[destinedking.livejournal.com]

[he was attracted to a flash of light he saw, although he didn't see the source. It's gone as quickly as it came though, but he did hear a voice]

Morgana?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

[Sounding a bit more nervous than usual.] Arthur, my candle went out and I don't have anything for lighting it. [Do you have anythiiiing where are rocks when they need them. Morgana can totally spark a fire with rocks.]

[destinedking.livejournal.com]

[Arthur doesn't have a candle either, because he just...doesn't. He fails. But he does have flint on him, because knights carry things like that around probably, or at least I say they do.] Stay where you are and continue talking. I'll find my way to you. [He feels his way along the walls towards Morgana's voice.]

[ex_oneiromancer912]

[Now her voice reveals relief.] Be careful of the furnishings. It will not do for the king to trip in the dark and crack his head.

[punkblaze]

[Eithan came to the library to find a more comfortable place to curl up and take a nap, but Morgana's voice catches his attention and he starts that way, fireball in hand once again. Flames around books? Probably not the best idea, but it's better than running smack into a bookshelf. Which he's already done at least once.

... Ahem. Anyway. He walks over and picks up the candle for her, and even lights it back up with the fireball before offering it to her.]

Here. You okay?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

[She is quiet for a moment, looking at the flame. She almost asks him, but then she stops herself and forces a smile.] I'm fine. Just an accident in the dark. And you are well?

[punkblaze]

[He nods.] Yeah. Just really damn tired... I thought they might have somethin' more comfortable in here to take a nap on.

[ex_oneiromancer912]

I know there were some long chairs [she means sofas] on the higher levels. [But she hasn't gone up because the less chance of tripping in the dark, the better.]

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[Shion has been wandering around, lighting his way with a golden glow as he gets his bearing in the darkness. As he's wandering though the library he hears a voice and goes look through the source.]

Hello?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

[She rises to her feet, picking up the candle, and walks to the light.] It is Morgana.

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[Shion nods in greeting when he sees her] Are you all right?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

I am fine, just a little startled. It never gets this dark in my world.

[sosweet]

[A bit bored and frustrated, Saga decides to walk into the library to read for a while. Until he notices a candle being lit and being blown out all in a blink of an eye, with some crash involved. The Saint frowns and goes into the light's direction. The voice is immediately recognizable.]

[Burns his Cosmo so it produces a great glow and with his Cloth it becomes brighter.]

My Queen... are you well?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

I am fine. [She brushes the wax away from her hand.] Do all Saints produce their own undying light?

[sosweet]

[A gentle smile and chuckle.] Our Cosmo is boundless. Until the day we die. [Looks at the candle.] What happened?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

I was startled by—a noise, and knocked the candle over in my surprise.

[best-served-hot.livejournal.com]

[In his wanderings he comes to the library, he misses the failing of the light, but the voice is familiar.]

Lady Morgana, is that you?

[He doesn't have any matches but he has a torch (not one she would be used to), which he is shining in the direction he heard her voice. If she is determined to read by candlelight, he can help with that as well.]

[ex_oneiromancer912]

Yes, I'm--[she squints at the 'torch'] What is that?

[best-served-hot.livejournal.com]

[It takes only a moment more for him to reach her.]

A torch. One can never be too prepared. Are you all right?

[ex_oneiromancer912]

I am fine. [She is still staring at the Technology.] But there is no flame in it.
