[She clears her throat and begins speaking calmly and sounds composed but it is clear she is a bit stressed by the situation]

Excuse me, I cannot be kept here, I cannot be locked up like this. Not again. Nothing good ever came from locking someone away. I can see that I am not the only person in this position, should someone find their way out, I do hope you will share the secret with the rest of us. What if there's a fire?

[Cheerfully, in a long purr.] Then we burn.

That does not sound ideal to me.

Only because you are not a match! [As if this was the most obvious thing on the planet.]

I cannot imagine that match would like to burn either, it eventually goes out and is useless.

But it has a good run!

But it has a light that fades quickly, and before it has even started it is finished and forgotten.

[Faintly sing-song.]

You are awfully negative, my girl.

I am locked in a room. There is not much to be positive about at this moment.

[Hesitant.]

Again?

[contemplatively]

It is a very long story. I am afraid that I spoke a little frantically before. I just remember everything I learned the last time this happened, and being locked up now well...It is simply a part of my life I thought was over.

Last time? [A pause.] I don't understand.

The woman who raised me did so in her own private prison.

Oh.

I'm sorry - that's terrible.

Please do not pity me, it could have been much worse. Do you mind if I ask who I am speaking with?

Christine Daaé. And you?

My name is Estella. It is very nice to make your acquaintance even if this is all a bit impersonal.

You as well - I - well, it's not the best circumstances either.

Are you from this building ...normally?

Well, Darcy lives here. She is a pill.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]still_lotte
2010-05-27 05:51 pm UTC (link)
Darcy? [A pause.] Is she like Charlotte?

...and how can a person be a pill? Forgive me, I'm a little confused.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]unrequitedcharm

Who is Charlotte?

By pill I mean a little bit of a problem, she knows the proper way to behave and chooses not to.

Someone who's going to come and take care of things when the sun rises.

Ah. That can't be pleasant.

That is very nice, the best I have is Darcy.

It isn't pleasant at all.

My [...] friend doesn't seem to have a good one either. Her woman is - well, something not for polite company.

[Clearly uncomfortable]

I know all too well how that can be.

Maybe you two should talk and figure things out. Meg seemed rather horrified by her.

Come the dawn, all will most likely be quite normal. For now we should be thankful that we're all safe.

[info]unrequitedcharm

I am glad for the safety, but I only get one night. Normal for you might be better, normal for me is Darcy misbehaving every chance she gets. We were not raised to behave that way once we get a little taste of freedom.

And what sort of mischief does this Darcy girl get into?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]unrequitedcharm
2010-05-27 07:14 pm UTC (link)
She drinks alcohol and brings men home at all hours of the night.

Oh! Well, then. Perhaps she needs a guiding hand? Where are her parents?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]unrequitedcharm

Unfortunately she has no parents, we have that in common.

No relatives to lend her a hand? Perhaps I should tell my counterpart to help her when she returns. She has a bit of experience with [...] wayward girls like that.

It might do her a world of good. My name is Estella.

My name is Mina. It's lovely to have met you. It's a pity the circumstances weren't more ideal.
