Dear Muse,
Why do you only show up once finals are upon me? I could have used you some during the school year. Or is it that the ski slopes are finally closed and you got bored? Is that it? Yeah, I thought so.

Love, Me


Another little scene. Yrael and Svava, this time. Referencing this thread from OMG way back when.


Long-Laid Plans

Beware! The fireworks were beautiful, sending green and blue sparks all over the sky above the bar. From the vantage point across the lake, the exploding stars of color were doubled by their reflections upon the quiet lake surface.

Here Yrael poured them both another glass of wine, grinning contentedly at the spectacle. "We should have done this long ago."
thereSvava bit into a chocolate liquor with a slightly guilty smile, "Let's just hope they don't figure out who locked them in. Ooh, that was a nice one, there."
Both their faces were lit with the blue light from the explosion that sent sparks falling into the lake. Yrael sipped the blue-lit Atlantean, smiling. "Maybe he was able to dodge it."
be "Hopefully." Svava held up her wineglass to gaze at the fireworks through it. "Will they be done soon, do you think? It's been over an hour already."
white While gesturing to the fireworks display with one hand, Yrael snuck one of Svava's chocolate liquors from the tray with the other, grinning. "Well, look at it this way. The longer this goes on, the safer we are from retribution, my friend."
text. Svava sipped her wine, thoughtfully. "True. Want another chocolate?"
Bwah. Yrael grinned. "Why thank you."

Preddy!



But, uh, and this is very possibly a stupid question, locked who/what/which in?

It's a lovely vignette, and I can just see it taking place.

One suggestion, for the benefit of the random reader -- exposition as to just who's been locked up (and why, if needed), might add to clarity and depth because otherwise it can leave people wondering.

(And yes, I found that which was hidden.)

You are one sneaky sneaky person. Bwah.

And I have to agree with the others. Who exactly is fighting?

Hee! Reasonable question. It was supposed to be secret, due to the plan only being between Svava and Yrael themselves.

They locked Moiraine and Arithon in a room together, then went a safe distance away to watch the explosions. They planned to do it, nearly six months ago, now.

About six months ago, Svava and Yrael planned to lock Moiraine and Arithon in a room together, then go a safe distance away to watch the explosions. Of couse, it never happened. But this is just a secretive little what-if.
