ooc: Finally coming back from what turned out to be an incredibly long hiatus, sorry about that everyone. After some thinking and discussing I decided that what makes the most sense (I should have thought about this in advance I know) is that Lirael here has been mallynapped. This is her return home after that experience. She's fine, just a little confused since it's been weeks.

Action:

[ If anyone wants to wander into a slightly confused and disoriented Lirael, this is your chance. Break time and space and go crazy, she can be just about anywhere but eventually she does make her way back to house 44 and gets inside, at which point she immediately heads for the kitchen and starts rummaging around to find something to eat. She's a little too out of it to actually manage anything constructive though so she might need a hand. ]

Video:

[ Once the dust has cleared and Lirael has been fed and rested and had a bath and all of that good stuff, she makes one of her rare and usually brief video appearances because ugh showing her face to everyone is just so very awkward. Still, it felt like it might be a good idea since she's been gone for quite a while. ]

Uh, hello. I don't know if... [ If anyone noticed? That sounds a little rude, doesn't it? ] I mean... um... I've been gone for a while. Apparently.

I just wanted to say that I'm back now, and I'm fine. In case someone was... Just... In case.

[ Yes Luceti, the Queen of Awkward has indeed come back to you. Aren't you all so glad? ]

With her it's different. I...she's not mortal. She's like me. So we can't be separated by time like that.

And...I know that, logically. But that doesn't make it any less distressing. If my memories aren't my own then what are they?

[keyandstar]

Just because something can be taken away from you it doesn't mean it's not yours. People can take pretty much everything away, when you think about it.

That...is true. I just...it didn't feel right, staying with Clint. It was greedy, having two loves. And that scared me too. It was all confusing. And maybe it was wrong, but I think it's safer this way. Even if it hurts now.

[keyandstar]

If it didn't feel right then maybe it just wasn't. You shouldn't be with someone if it feels like it's wrong, that probably won't lead to happy things in the end.

[windandrain]

Right. That...well, that was it too. I don't want to accidentally ruin what we have, by keeping things so serious. That's...well, I want him in my life, but in that way it doesn't feel right.

[keyandstar]

How did he take it?

[windandrain]

He was confused. But I...think everything's alright. We talked for a long time, and we had a nice dinner after.

We've both taken a little time to ourselves though, to sort out our heads.
