This world was far better than the last one. Sirilla had enjoyed the island, mostly, even the deserted island, until Trouble had left again. Cynically, she felt that this time it was probably for good. Even more cynically, she was starting to think that if she stayed here long enough (and she was still very determined to stay), she might lose everyone here that mattered. Even Dame Zeta, since she'd lost Miss Kappa before, though she hoped at least her dameface might be able to say goodbye.

Even when people returned, it hurt. Her colour-world counterpart was going through that right now, and Sirilla had a fair idea of how much it must hurt. She couldn't decide whether she was hoping to be in his position or not, with her own Moony returning. She hoped that if he did come back, she might be over him enough by then not to be quite so affected if he didn't want her back, for any number of reasons. Oldfoot hadn't been given nearly long enough, but Sirilla was going on half a month. Maybe, just maybe, she'd manage it.

In the meantime, she had plenty of distractions in this world. She was the mayor of this weird little town, which was a little bit confusing in that it meant she had a woman inside her head worrying about policies and laws and the like, but also awesome in that she still had her own mind enough to make it her own. She just needed to get this mayor lady to relax and do some fun things and then no one would really care if she didn't get something else right.

But of course, her enjoyment of her job couldn't keep out everything else forever; she was due for a reality check. It happened when she was walking down the street with a milkshake, greeting everyone as she went-- the handy thing about this Mary Smith lady was she seemed to know everyone's name-- when she ended up in front of Larry Davis. "Hello, Larry," she greeted him in her mayor's voice without thinking, and a split second later Sirilla's brain kicked in to remind her who this was. She glanced around to see if anyone was listening to them, and then lifted a hand to press the back of it against her mouth as if she were wiping away a bit of milkshake on her lips, even though she didn't have any. "I mean, Remus."

The mention of Lily made Sirilla's heart squeeze a bit, because she had broken that friendship a bit too, and that was her fault. She needed to do something about that, but Merlina, she just wanted to hide under her blankets right now. She might have been doing that, except for this stupid mayor, except for her stupid pride that refused to crawl into a corner. "Then maybe we'll all be running together this month," she said. Except for the Wormtails, but she didn't bother to specify. "I'd like that."

She blinked at the napkin, but shook her head, composing herself. She wasn't going to cry, because she simply wasn't going to. She refused, and besides, they were sort of patching things up. She wasn't ready to cuddle up with him the same way she'd done with the faction world Remus, but she curled her arms around herself and met his gaze, dry-eyed. "Me too," she said. "Sorry that I let her get to me, that I'm still letting her get to me, even here. That what happened in my world and in colour is breaking things even when we're not in our worlds anymore, even when our Wormtails aren't around. It's not my fault that things are broken back there, but I'm the one that's here, the one that can't go back to the way things used to be. And that's not really my fault either, but it's hurting people, and I hate hurting people. So... I'm sorry that you got hurt, too."
