Nathan and Alison, Sunday afternoon

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Backdated to Sunday afternoon, before Nathan leaves the medlab. Alison stops in to visit him. They talk about matters both frivolous (gray hair) and serious (the team), and there are a few undercurrents to the conversation that they both let stay beneath the surface. She gives him some food for thought, and he adds it to the pile. Oh, and he solves his puzzle box.

( I feel like I'm waiting for my life to start again. )

The Finding of Meggan

[x-bamf.livejournal.com]

Margali hears that a rival clan have a "demon" for sale.

( ~I think I shall see this demon for myself.~ )

***

Margali discovers that the "demon" is a sick mutant child, tries to free her, but is caught doing so and forced to leave.

( ~I, Monster.~ )

***

Szardos family conference. In which they discuss what Margali found, and decide what to do about it.

( ~Do we have the money to buy the child? The Grgics are asking for a heavy price.~ )

***

Stefan, Kurt and Amanda go to get Meggan out.

( ~ Would you like to hear a story? About a little girl, who lived with a very bad man, who hurt her all the time. It made her very sad, because she couldn't get away...~ )

Meggan, Amanda - two logs from the first night.

Meggan's first night with the Szardos caravan, and it becomes obvious there are definite holes in her knowledge of being a person, rather than a Monster.

( It'll all still be here in the morning, I promise. )

Sleep brings dreams, of the particularly meaningful sort. Symbolism's more than just that when you're a witch.

( Ties that bind. )
