The festival.

[And oh how much she wants to ask what happened at the theater but she pushes that thought down, for Nightingale's sake.]
experiencepoints: (NOT CUTE.)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-06-28 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[She lets out a huge sigh of relief.]

Oh, thank fuck.

[... that probably doesn't help your curiosity, does it, Beverly. And then Nightingale realizes:]

... Why are you laughing.
dancingmd: (don't make fun of your mother)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-06-28 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Because it's cute and because you're reminding me a little of myself.
experiencepoints: (Pig candy made me come.)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-06-28 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
I am not cute-

Wait, yourself?
dancingmd: (now what)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-06-28 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm. Here, I'll show you.

[Beverly closes her eyes - not really necessary for the memory transfer, of course, but it helps her focus. Nightingale will get the image of another spa, where Beverly and a friend are talking about Beverly's love life.]
experiencepoints: (What am I s'posed to do with this chikn)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-06-28 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[she has no idea how to feel about that- There's confusion, wonder (since she has never been to a spa, she's pretty sure- she sure doesn't remember it), and... familiarity, and some very slight amusement.]

Is that really what it feels like, watching me...
dancingmd: (now what)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-06-29 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Beverly chuckles again.]

A little, yes.

[She just sinks in the water a little to cover up her embarrassment. Oh, god, she's so embarrassed.]

So... Did that not work out, or were you dating that person and the one who was here?
dancingmd: (i don't want to look at him)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-06-29 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. [Odan's face - faces - flash in her memory, though the one that sticks is the last, Kareel's, as she takes Beverly by the hand and kisses the inside of her wrist. I will never forget you.
]


No, there were too many... complications, with Odan. And Daneel...

[She drops her gaze for a moment. That sharp feeling of loss returns, just as strong as ever, mixed with a great deal of love.]

Daneel is gone.

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-06-29 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Her feelings can be best described as one overwhelming force of 'I FUCKED UP'.]

I- I'm sorry to hear that...
dancingmd: (sad smile)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-06-30 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, honey, you didn't mess up anything. Everything's going to remind her of Daneel for a while.]

It's all right. Daneel and I knew something like this would probably happen and I don't regret a single moment I spent with him.
experiencepoints: (Lesbian senses tingling.)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-06-30 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
... And... You're okay with that? That you got separated?

[There's confusion, and fear, and a pretty strong mix of homesickness and lovesickness. She misses Yura so bad.]
dancingmd: (jack's uniform)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-06-30 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Beverly has a hard time placing where the fear is coming from, though the confusion and homesickness she understands. And the heartbreak... they seem to be echoing off one another in that regard.]

I can come to terms with it because we had discussed what we would do when the time came and we said our goodbyes while we could... but that's not quite the same thing as being okay with him being gone.

[In fact, it feels a little as if someone has ripped out a piece of her. Long before they were lovers, she and Daneel were friends. Until now, she didn't truly realize how much she had come to depend on his steady presence and his unconditional love, not just for her, but for everyone he encountered. This isn't the first heartbreak she's had to deal with, nor will it be the last, she is sure, so she is equipped to work through it, but that doesn't make it hurt less.]
experiencepoints: (Drink away the pain.)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-06-30 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[The fear is because she's afraid of losing people.

And also because she hasn't forgotten she's still in the water.]


... Yeah. No one and nothing is consistent in these places, but... It still hurts.

I'm sorry.
dancingmd: (concerned)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-01 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
[She gives Nightingale's hand another little squeeze, this time out of gratitude.]

Thank you.
experiencepoints: (M... motherfuckin deres.)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-07-01 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
[And now there's embarrassment.]

I- It's nothing, really.
dancingmd: (you are stronger than you think)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-01 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
It's not nothing. Support from people who have been through a similar thing is always important.
experiencepoints: (Lesbian senses tingling.)

[personal profile] experiencepoints 2016-07-01 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
I... guess so. Misery loves company, right?
dancingmd: (coffee and croissants)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-02 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
A cynical way to put it, but I suppose that's close enough.
