Marian stood before the door. Staring at it. All she would have to do was twist the knob. And it would be simple as that. No one would know she was in. Because she would return before she was missed. How bad could it be? How bad?

Her hand dropped to the knob, feeling the pressure behind it. All it would take...

Slowly she released the breath she didn't realize she was holding and turned the knob.

	"No one's saying your an invalid, but is it so wrong of us to want to protect those of you carrying the next generation?" Connor retorted, crossing his arms and scowling back at her. "I've seen too much death over the centuries, especially among women." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"When they all but say 'all you're good for is sitting there and watching the pretty blinking lights, and make sure that none of them go out, if they do then hit this shiny button here and tell someone, don't go looking for why', then yes, they are." She gritted her teeth at them. "Just like when they say 'You can't do something you've done almost all your life, save for maybe with a foam rubber sword rather than wood one'." She gave him scowl for scowl. "Something tells me you're quite good at telling someone they're useless."

	"Why are you so bloody determined to go over there anyway?" Connor stared at her, exasperated. "You're eight months pregnant for heaven's sake! You ought to be resting up and relaxing while you can, not sticking your neck out for strangers." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Because people need help over there, and... And I can't sit over here and twiddle my thumbs and pretend they don't. I've never done. And never will do. Pregnant or not." She just wasn't that sort of person. To sit idly by while someone else suffered. Not while she was well, and could help.

"Now you have a choice you can knowingly let me go, and let me make this choice, or I'll simply wait until your gone and go anyway." She pursed her lips obstinately. "You are neither my husband nor my father, and I can promise you that I am far from needing a protector."

	"What you need is someone to sit on you and save you from yourself," Connor stepped aside. "But that won't be me. You ought to be conserving your energy, but if its this important to you, on your own head then," (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It is, very important. Thank you." Marian saw no point in conserving energy when whatever she gained she lost in a days time. When there was something she could do with it. And feel good when she fell into her bed, then she was going to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Connor watched her go through the door and shook his head. He'd met his share of stubborn women before, but this was ridiculous. He just hoped nothing happened to her. (Reply to this) (Parent)
