October 31, 2012: Warehouse Hallowe'en Party

[damncompass]

Welcome to Leena's Bed and Breakfast. It's a homey-looking place with a well-loved lived-in feel. Once you come in the front door, you're faced with a hallway. To the left is a large living room, with a sunroom off of the side, and a dining room off of the back. Straight ahead is a kitchen, with a private wing behind it and a bathroom. To the right is a stairway upstairs with a ribbon tied across the banister. Go under the ribbon to your own peril.

Joshua, Helena, and Claudia are milling around.

Have fun, and please don't trash anything too badly!

He shrugs, he doesn't know much better he is,

"Full of ups and downs the same as you said. I did something that I've wanted to but that broke another's heart and spent a week as a ten year old."

"Oh, dear." Helena winces. "Hopefully it will work itself out in the end?" She pauses. "Ah. Was that the same Milliways strangeness that hit Joshua?"

"I hope it will, but relationships are never simple. Yes, it was. We got along rather well at that age."

[timelessinventor]

"Relationships are rather the opposite of simple. There is a reason that I tended to avoid them in my original time. They simply complicated matters."

Joshua changed everything, however.

"He told me about that. I dare say you both were quite adorable."

[balancingminds]

"I think we were, but then I'm rather biased. No, they're not but that's why they're so precious. I would rather have complicated relationships than no connections."

[timelessinventor]

"I have learned that in the last few months." She smiles wistfully. "There are people in my life that have taught me how important deep relationships of every sort are."

Joshua, Myka, Claudia, even Artie to some extent.

"I'm glad, they're precious. And while what happened has probably lost me one relationship, now I can explore another with someone who pulls and pushes me unlike any other."

[timelessinventor]

"Sometimes, one has to lose something to gain even better things." She pauses, a fleeting memory of her daughter crossing her mind. "I am beginning to learn that."

"I hope that's true and I hate the idea of zero sum equations brought into the world."
