011 [voice/action]

Are there any musicians here? It has been too long since I was able to enjoy a performance. I would like to hear a song from your world. If you will indulge me, I will share one from mine.

[If any of those musicians (or anyone else) happens to be around house #47, they might hear some quiet flute music from that house's porch. Sigmund is mostly just playing for himself, but if anyone stopped by to listen, he'd play louder for them. He's in an unusually good mood, barely even a hint of his usual morbidity or ill humor. What could possibly be causing that?]

(OOC: Sigmund's AU needs no linked explanation. He did not disappear in a blaze of idiotic glory. That's really all you need to know.)

[After a moment of thought, he sets the flute aside.] You didn't need to do that. [Shouldn't have.]

[But she wanted to. ...And she fidgets again, a little worried now.]

If it bothers you, I'll change immediately.

No, I- [He sighs. How does he always get put in these situations?] I appreciate it.

[And she's pleased at once, shifting over just a smidgen until her shoulder bumps against his.] I'm glad of that.

[Sigmund shifts - not away, but in a sort of half shrug - and tucks his chin towards the opposite shoulder.]

[Sigmund that was kind of pathetic. Then again she's not expecting great wonders of epiphanies or love confessions. Sigmund is Sigmund, and she's fine with that. The fact that he didn't move away is... important.

So with a smile she lifts her head, gazing at the sky.]
What were you playing, my lord?

I'm not sure. [That sounds really pathetic, doesn't it?] I overheard Capell playing it once.

[Remember Capell? His son? He thinks it would do her well to be reminded that the man she's leaning against is old, with a son her age. The attention is flattering - it always has been - but...]

[She makes a faint humming sound as an acknowledgement, obviously not bothered by it. Sorry, Sigmund, if you were trying to get her to shove off, that was not the way to do it.]

He's an excellent musician.

[He turns to look at her, which has the side effect of moving his shoulder from against hers to behind hers.]

Yes. I am... very proud of him.

He's done great things with the Force.

[Sigmund's sure that he has, but he's not sure that it's an appropriate topic of conversation while she leans against him like that. He looks at her with a peculiar expression. This isn't possibly interested. This is... something else.]

[She's just biding her time, waiting to see what he'll do- whether he'll dismiss her or let her stay. Slow and steady, slow and steady.]

...Still... I'm glad it's you who's here, now.

[He watches her for a moment more, not sure what to make of this situation. There's talk of their memories being wrong. He shouldn't. But what is he to do, wait forever for the other shoe to drop? That's no way to live. He doesn't want that to be his life any longer. He has his son and he's ready to live again.]

...We should go inside.

[Was he suggesting they go someplace where the whole village can't see her trying to slowly sneak her way into using him for a pillow? Yes, he was. If they're going to discuss this - even think about discussing this - it should be in private.

He grabs his flute, heads for the door, and stops dead right inside it. They stay in the main room, Katie might still see, but adjourning to one of their rooms would be... and he's still not entirely sure he wants to encourage that line of thought. So he blocks the doorway instead.]

My lord?

... We can speak in my room.

[And that's where he's going, his room, with the two armchairs tucked away in the corner. He has a feeling he's going to be giving his priorities some serious thought soon. At least until then, he can count on the relative safety of separate chairs.]

Have you thought about what you're doing? [He has to ask, at least.]

People can change.

[This is less a question of 'no longer' than of 'suddenly', really.

Sigmund knows he's not good at this, but it isn't as though he's actively trying to hurt her. He reaches over to tuck her hair behind her ear. He's doing his best, alright?]


That isn't what I meant.

So what did you mean?

I'm not the man I was when you met me. [Seriously not, since he doesn't even know what she remembers him being like. Other than in bed with her, apparently. Unfortunately, he trails of, because he becomes somewhat distracted tracing her jaw with the back of his fingers. When he realizes what he's doing, he pulls his hand away and presses his lips together.]

As long as you realize that...
