chaincutter: (y u do this?)

016 [Voice] (Backdated to... morning?)

  • Dec. 26th, 2010 at 5:02 PM
Stay in the box. [...] No. Stay in the bo- Stay-

[And that's when Sigmund realizes the journal already started recording while he was distracted.]

Sokka

I need workspace in the smithy. Stay out of my way. I won't be in yours.

Simon

Come to the smithy later. I need to fit you for something.

Katara

We will speak tonight. After dark, past the southern edge of town. If you are willing.

[Sigmund will not be home today until quite late, so the chances of catching him are slim. But everyone will find a neatly handwritten note slipped under their door, to the effect of "I made you something. It is in the kitchen. Your name is on the jars." And, as the notes said, there are three little pyramids of six squatty little jars each on the kitchen table. And in those jars... is pie. Portable pie. Sigmund-cooked portable pie. For Capell and Katie, apple. For Edward, venison and mutton.

...Pie.]

[And so, round about seven o'clock and in her new, Catherine-given parka, Katara heads out to meet Sigmund past the Southern edge of town.]

[He will be waiting just past the last houses, with a little white ball of light floating just above his head, and a heavy blue cloak bundled over his shoulders. While he waits, he appears to be... quietly scolding a bundle of cloak balled up in the crook of one arm.]

[All serious business aside, Katara's momentarily fascinated with that ball of light and hardly notices that Sigmund has seemed to move on to scolding himself.]

Woah.
What's that?

[Sigmund blinks at her and tucks his bundle of cloak closer - is it... squirming? - before pointing at his light. This?] It is a sunstone.

Oh. It's beautiful. [Well, that answers that, she guesses. Some kind of stone from his world? She'd ask further, but then... she can't help but notice the squirming.]

And what's that?

[It is at this point that an overexcited ball of reddish-brown fluff frees itself from his grasp and tumbles into the snow. The puppy toddles on over to sniff around her feet, and greets her with an aggressive little urf.

...]



Bad Dog.

[Katara's eyes widen in surprise and then she kneels down, holding out a hand so the dog can get a better sniff.]

You brought a... beardog?

[The puppy sniffs her hand once, like it's doing it to be polite. Then it turns around in a circle and half-sits, half-flops, whining. Sigmund sighs, and scoops it back up again.]

It gave me little choice.

And Katara indulges in a little mental snicker at watching Sigmund cater to the puppy.]


Since when did you have a puppy?

[Sigmund is not amused by Dog's antics, but he bundles him back up in his cloak with only minor grumbling, so that now he has a ball of cloak with a puppy head sticking out.]

Since two days ago.

But where did you get him? I haven't seen any animals like this around.

[...yes, she is completely distracted for the next moment or two.]

From the statue.

Yes. [Awoourf, interjects the fluffball. And then it sneezes on Sigmund's clothes.] Hush, Dog.

I didn't ask you here to discuss that.

[Please tell her that you did not name the puppy Dog. That would just be cruel and unusual. And all right, fine. She sobers and looks up at him.]

All right. I'm listening.

I know that you were upset that I did not tell you everything you wished. I do not think that entirely fair.

[Oh, of all the arrogant--]

No, I was upset because you lied to me and then asked me to trust you. I don't think that is entirely fair either. I know you had your reasons and that's why I'm willing to hear you out, but starting out by insulting me is a pretty bad way of doing it.

The one had nothing to do with the other. I told you that I would keep Katie safe. Did I lie?

You were the one who asked me to come out here. If you did that, then you know what I want to hear. [And she stops walking and looks at him.] The truth, Sigmund. I've heard enough, between what Capell said in that cell and during the last experiment to put some pieces together. But you still denied it to my face. If you're going to offer me any explanation at all, it had better be the truth. Or else just - don't bother.

There is much truth to tell... and I've already told you more than you think.

[He looks up to check his sunstone, and then hugs Dog a little closer, giving him a scratch behind the ear.] Ask your questions.

[She pauses a moment, knowing that what she's about to ask is deeply personal. But he's lied about it, and lied about it, and lied about it to her face. And he was the one to call her out here and offer explanation.

...that counts for something.

And that's why she doesn't bother verifying what she already knows to be true. Instead she goes straight to the heart of it.]


Why did you lie to me about being Capell's father? It's obvious how much he means to you.

The first time you asked, I hadn't told Capell yet. It isn't a simple issue.
