Remind me to thank him then.

[She gives Wrath a little squeeze.]

How are you liking the planet so far?

[Beverly loves it, loves the people here, even if it makes her a little homesick for Deanna and heartsick for Daneel. Wrath may pick up small flashes of memory of them, mostly their faces, Deanna's big smile and Daneel's quieter, enigmatic one.]

I really like it! I've been spending most of my time on the beach so I can work, but I'm trying to look around a little in the evening.

[And hey, Wrath's thinking about Charles looking so happy. That's the best part about this place as far as she's concerned.]

It's making you miss you friends, though?
dancingmd: (he has to wake up)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-13 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Beverly hums in the affirmative and leans into Wrath a little.]

They both can do this all the time. Read people's emotions.

Oh, kind of like Charles can read people's minds? That's so cool, though!

I wish I could do stuff like that.
dancingmd: (pen smile)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-15 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
At least you get to experience it here a little bit, right?

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-07-15 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
That's true. Maybe I should ask him how to do it right...
dancingmd: (smile)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-16 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
You're doing fine. [Beverly takes Wrath's hand.] Or at least, I'm very comfortable sharing with you.

[The soft hum of her affection buzzes between them, for once not darkened by worry over Wrath's health]

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-07-17 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, that's good. [Oh, and she gets that affection. She's a bit surprised, but there's a lot of affection right back atcha, Beverly.]
dancingmd: (head tilt)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-18 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Beverly raises her eyebrows.]

You're surprised. Why is that?
pain_train: (i wish i could remember)

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-07-21 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know... I guess I'm still not really used to people giving a shit? [She's just a nothing, really, thought maybe now things will get better because she can start working again.]
dancingmd: (hug)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-22 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Beverly's heart aches at that, so she leans over and gives Wrath a soft kiss on her temple.]

You're so incredibly important to me and as long as we're both here, I'll always be here for you.

[It feels really good to hear that, even if she hasn't done anything to earn it. But she will!]

Thanks, Beverly. I'll be here for you too.
dancingmd: (smile)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-07-28 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I know you will.

Thank you, by the way, for the hug. I needed that.

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-08-01 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Because you miss your friends. It's okay. [Have another hug. They're a resource that never runs out.]
dancingmd: (ouch)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-08-10 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Beverly accepts the hug gratefully, realizing how very, very spoiled she had gotten with Daneel - all the kisses and hugs and little touches, she misses them terribly. She lets out a little sad sigh.]

Losing people never does get easier does it?
pain_train: (raveled care)

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-08-10 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
It always sucks no matter what. Even when it happens all the time. I think if it stops hurting, that means you've kind of died too.
dancingmd: (he has to wake up)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-08-13 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods solemnly.]

Sometimes, after Jack died, I thought it would be better not to feel anything at all but... I would rather remember the love too, even if it hurts.

If you have good times, they're always worth remembering. You have to have something to keep you going when times are bad.
dancingmd: (hand holding)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-08-18 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
For me, that's always been other people. [She takes her hand again and starts to walk down the shoreline.] The people who are still here.

[Like Wesley, like her crew - Enterprise and Blue Fish, like Wrath herself.]

People are the most important. [Remembering them is the most important.] I'm glad you have so many good friends.
dancingmd: (smile)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-08-25 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Seems strange to say, considering our situation, but I am very lucky.

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-08-29 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know, I think it's a pretty great situation. Though I know you come from a much better place, so it makes sense if it doesn't seem that way. But as long as you stay positive, you can still find the good in a bad situation.
dancingmd: (i didn't know you danced)

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-09-01 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Guilt settles in her stomach. Not everyone misses home as she does, she is aware of this, and yet she can't always help those comments that slip through. Sorry, sorry, she wants Wrath to be happy, is glad she's happy here.]

I admire that about you: you have a tremendous talent for finding joy and bringing it out in others too.
