005 ~*~ Of blood, sweat, and tears

[not_so_great_wall]

[ Toast was in the toaster, so it was time to fetch the mail! Meiling skipped out, humming tunelessly as she opened the box and pulled out... oh, that's quite a few letters. This was exciting!

She enters the house again, deposits what isn't for herself or Patchy on the coffee table, and then ascends the stairs. ] Miss Patchouli, we have mail! And breakfast will be done soon~

[ No, she didn't read the address or anything, and just slipped her not!daughter's letter under her door before making her way back into the main bedroom to get dressed. She mumbles to herself as she digs through the closet. ] --that's weird.

[ Meiling then calls back into the hall. ] Has anyone seen my cap? I know I can't wear it to work, but I like to have it on around the house!

[Flandre blinks.]

Won't I get little green things on me, Meiling?

[She means grass.]

[not_so_great_wall]

[ A bit of a laugh. ] Not if you stay up here! [ She puts a little bounce in her step for emphasis. ]

[This time Flandre squeals, ducking her chin a bit and kicking her feet.

Well, okay then. This was a nice place to be, anyway; not the dream, exactly, but in Meiling's arms. Like it always was; a good place, a safe one.

The little vampire rests her cheek on the gate guard's chest, face turned up and smiling at her.]

[ Meiling giggles, careful not to let go of Flandre for anything. She's still trying to stay focused on the surroundings, and prone to falling into silence as they continue on at such a hurried pace. ]

[Despite the rush, this was...relaxing. Meiling wasn't putting her down anytime soon, and there was no jostling or rattling or anything. And the sun was...warm. Pleasantly so, no burning or itching.

It was nice.

Flandre peers around only a little bit, eventually closing her eyes with a little happy murmur.

...Meiling was awfully quiet, though.]

What is Meiling looking at?

[not_so_great_wall]

Hm? [ She blinks, briefly looking down to her little passenger. ] Just seeing who's out-and-about...

[there-were-none.livejournal.com]

[BIG SMILE right back up at her.]

Is Meiling looking for someone?

[not_so_great_wall]

Kind of. [ She bites her lip a moment. ] I don't think it's anyone you know, so don't worry about it, okay?

[there-were-none.livejournal.com]

[The smile fades a tiny bit, and Flandre tilts her head slightly. Something seemed...marginally wrong here.

But what was it? Meiling said not to worry about it, but....she couldn't help it.]
