and now, Jaheira decides to have *that* talk with Imoen. It doesn’t quite work out the way she intended…
Oh no...
Oh, come on... *that* talk can't be so bad?
“so, what will it be… have you decided to listen to that old fool?”
Well, if Theo decided to listen to Keldorn.. he'd be the fool. But he isn't! So, no one's going to leave! Yay!
Nope, no one's leaving.
well, she is in relatively good mood, so maybe she won’t scold the poor kid too badly…
Jaheira.. relatively.. heh..
Oh, yes I know... but she isn't grumpy the whole time, really.
I slowly get out of bed and head over to the small table to pour myself a glass of wine for myself and Viconia – I fear that this might prove too difficult with a dry throat.
Or maybe you hope somewhere deep inside that she would get very, very drunk.. and forget the whole thing. Ha-ha-ha!
Hehe, could be... I wonder if the Drow magic resistence works against the inebriation...
Oh, and: "to pour myself a glass of wine for myself anf Viconia." Eh, I think you should erase the other 'myself'.
D'oh! Now how did that one slip by me??? Thanks!!
“What? What kind of a stupid question is that? I…” she stops and glares at me, seemingly unsure of how to go on, “How is one supposed to feel when… in love?”
Poor Viccy.. But I'm very, very glad she has Imoen!
Me too!
“They… they do…” the drow replies, visibly shocked.
Aww... I really like the idea.. (Have liked it from the very beginning!)
You'll get a double helping of this pairing when Weyoun's TnT will advance further...
I proceed to refill my glass, hoping that the alcohol might clear up the eerie situation. I take Viconia’s empty glass from her hands as she stands in the middle of the room like petrified, having refilled it, I press it back into her slightly numb hand…
Maybe you should explain that they have been drinking the wine during the discussion. It feels strange to see that the glasses are suddenly empty.
True! Good point!
“In… love? ” she mutters as the glass slips out of her fingers and drops on the carpet, “that… can’t be…”
Ooops... The carpet! Oh no.. I hope the innkeeper won't notice it.
Pah! Theo will just send Jae to glare at him!
She hears the door to her room opening slowly and someone steps inside.
And the (sorry Theo!) nightmare begins...
Nobody cuts poor Jae any slack...
“Back so soon? I thought you were going to be tortured by Jaheira’s interrogations… boy, if she gets into the mood, you better watch out…” Imoen chortles, not bothering to look at who the visitor is.
Ooops! Tsk, tsk, tsk... Imoen, that was a bad mistake!
Immy: D'OH!
“Sometimes I thought that I loved him more than you have ever loved him…” the words come out faster than Imoen can stop them and only after they are out, she quickly presses her palm over her mouth.
I'm happy that you don't mean that..
She liked Khalid a lot and felt really sorry for him as she found out about Theo and Jaheira...
and you know – I guess I always felt like that for Viconia, I was just too… confused and ashamed to admit it to myself… silly me, but …”
Yep, silly you! It's so great to see you two together!
I certainly think so, too!
“Oh, Imoen… of course not… now that we have spoken about it, I feel much more relieved…” Jaheira smiles and extends her arms to draw the girl closer. Imoen drops on her knees and wraps her hands around Jaheira’s waist, her head resting on the older woman’s chest, while Jaheira places her hands on Imoen’s shoulders as they hold each other tightly as if to seal the deeper friendship between them.
Awwww... I really liked the whole scene!
Thanks a lot! I want my girls to be all friendly!
“Aww, Vic… don’t be mean to Jaheira, she only meant well… how did your talk with Theo went?”
Um.. well, I think. She found out her true feelings and stuff. ^^
Yeah, sort of...
"How did your talk with Theo go."
I have a tendency to use a past tense again after 'did'... can't get rid of that habit.
“no doubt to resume what you were up to before I interrupted. Poor boy is probably starving for some mouthful of your ample bosom, Jaheira… don’t keep him waiting,” Viconia smirks as Jaheira rises to leave the room.
Theo: Well, I...
“You may, Viconia,” Jaheira laughs, as the Drow briefly and hesitantly hugs her, but just as she wants to recoil from the embrace, suddenly another pair of arms wrap around them both as Imoen joins into the group hug…
Awww!! (There, are you happy now!? Kidding..
Gee, thanks a lot!
Liked this episode very much!
Oh, yes! One of my most, if not the favorite band - heh, and of course I snatched the title of the novel from their album, it seemed so fitting!
