STATUS: Incomplete

The morning with Willow had really got Tara thinking. At this point, she was finally starting to understand what was going on within her self, her thoughts, feelings and what she had to do about it. Eyes wondered over the festivities with a sparkle in them as a small smile curved her lips upwards. The smile just wouldn’t leave her lips as Tara continued to eat her salad and sip at the glass of tea she had made earlier. Finally the brew was cool enough to easily drink and she savored the warm feeling of the glass in her hands as eyes wondered around the festivals of the fair. Watching goblins and people move to and fro from tent to tent reminded Tara of all the days in college in which she used to sit in the cafeteria people watching. She had always taken pleasure in watching others interact, smiling and laughing as the walked off to their classes and other appointments.

Now there were no appointments to be scurrying off to though. Maybe there were some classes though? She still hadn’t had the chance to discover if there was a library in the area or not, perhaps that would be a task for later in the day, or perhaps tomorrow. There were still a lot of things to go over before the day was complete. Being off in a land of day dreams, thoughts floated around her head of what was to come. Maybe if things worked out well some of the day dreams that caused a mischievous smirk to draw on her lips would come true. Finishing off her food and tea idly the blond witch stood taking her dishes into the tent and dropping them off, offering a shy ‘thank you’ to a goblin before slipping back outside.

With a smile on her face Tara began to search for something else to do with her day. Maybe she could find a class to attend? Walking in the direction of more tents eyes curiously scanned the area trying to find anything that struck her interest.

Anxiously, Rose pushed a few strands of hair off of her face. It was so unlike her, opening up to a complete stranger. She'd kept her walls up and tightly for so long that she almost didn't believe it. But she did need to get this out, and desperately. And honestly, she had the feeling her companion could stand to talk, too.

"It's funny," she commented carelessly, looking around them as she shoved her hands in her pockets. "You'd think... I mean, we're technically being imprisoned here. You'd think it'd be dull and dark and awful, but it's actually really beautiful, you know?" She'd been captured before, had her life threatened, but never had she had anyone make her jail time so...comfortable. "Where are you from, anyway? I feel foolish, having not asked and all."

This all was incredibly complicated and Tara couldn’t imagine it was any easier for anyone else. Obviously, it wouldn’t be. They all had been taken from their lives right in the middle of whatever they had been dealing with. Would the issues they were dealing with be there when they returned? Or would those problems have moved on without them? Not like there wasn’t enough issues here to fill a life time of turmoil as well.

With the words her head turned to look at the other woman, paying careful attention to what Rose spoke of before nodding in agreement. “It-it’s not what you’d, um, e-expect at all. O-or anyone would, I’d, um guess. It’s always hard to tell what’s going to happen w-when dealing with e-evil.” Eyes turned back to the area they were walking in for a moment, taking in the beauty of the area around them. “Oh, I’m from Sunnydale, California.” She paused for a moment before realizing that might mean nothing to the other woman. “In, um, America and you?”

Rose might've snapped back with a 'I know where California is', had it not been for their surroundings. She'd done a lot of thinking over the last few days and was able to admit that not everything was like it was back home. In fact, very little was. "I have a friend who's American," she said, instead, though she paused. "Well, he has an American accent at least. I don't know if he's actually...well, from there." Jack was a unique case, that was for certain. "Closest I've ever been to California, though, was Utah." That had been an interesting trip, to say the least, but she'd grown to know the man she cared about even better than she had before.

Which, she had to admit, was part of the problem. "I'm from London," she told her new friend, offering a smile. "Two-thousand and seven. Well, it was two-thousand and seven last I remember. It's...complicated." Time changed so differently in her new dimension. "Probably a world of difference from California, though. You hear about California being so sunny all the time and it rains a lot back home."

Retaining the soft smile the wicca nodded. Her smile widened at the Utah comment. What other places had this woman been? What did she know? Where was she from? There was a million questions Tara wished she could ask but those would have to wait for another time, a time when such serious emotions were at bay, at least temporarily. What had Rose spoken of in the entries? It was hard to remember with so many people scribbling out all their thoughts, feelings, dreams and nightmares.

Tara nodded in response to the location in which the woman was from. With the accent given it wasn’t really all the surprising, however the next words that fell from the woman’s lips left the quiet wicca silently reeling. 2007? How many different time periods where people from here? Goddess, what had this man done to all of them? These actions had to be incredibly upsetting to the balance of energies and the world. It took a moment to register the change in topic and Tara nodded again. “Oh, it really depends on where in California you are. S-some parts can be, um, very rainy at the right time of year.”
