Who: Ganieda and Belle
What: Meeting
Where: Ganieda's room for now
When: shortly after their thread together last night.
Warnings: I do not expect any. One never knows.

Ganieda got up from the computer and went to find her things for going out. Just in case they went out, of course. Belle seemed like a sweet woman, and she hoped that they'd get along well. Ganieda tried to be good at making people feel at ease; unfortunately, since coming here, her role needed to be changed around, so that she was the one being made to fee at ease.

	Belle knocked loudly on the front door. She was, after all, polite. Well, she could pretend she was, anyway. After hearing Merlin talk about Ganieda, she'd decided it might be best to tone down her modern and exuberant attitude. If she could. She wasn't sure. Either way, she was there, and on her best behavior. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Ganieda answers the door, smiling shyly. "Good even. You are Belle?" She thinks Belle is very pretty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oui. You must be Ganieda, then." She extended a strong, calloused hand. "It's a pleasure t' meecha, petite chere." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She shook hands with her. She had the hands of a hard worker. "The pleasure is all mine," she said. "Please come in. Mother is out working...or studying." Sometimes she does hate being alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Belle nodded and entered the house. It was odd, after seeing Merlin's home, how ordinary it was. Truth be told, she'd rarely been in any home that could be considered ordinary. It was rather nice. "It's very cozy. How y' handlin' things?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-15 08:44 pm UTC (link)
	It is certainly ordinary. And a little shabby, truth be told. The Davies family unit is not very wealthy at all. Ganieda has promised herself she will change that. "As well as may be, truth told," she said. "Though it is strange to be here, I have met some very friendly people." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We all started out dat way, I think. 'Cept some of the superheroes, maybe. Guess it starts getting to be run of the mill when you've done it two or three times." She shrugged. "Would you like to stay here, or go out and explore your new home? I'm up f'r both." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-15 08:57 pm UTC (link)
	"I cannot imagine doing this two or three times," she says, smiling. "I think I would like to go out--it will be better with your company." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-15 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	She nodded. "Great! What woulja like to do? We could just go for a walk, if you like." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-15 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	"I think a walk sounds fine. Though I would not know what to do in this place, anyway." She smiles. She's been staying inside, trying to get used to things slowly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-15 09:46 pm UTC (link)
	"Cool. I don't know the area that well myself, so it'll be an adventure!" She grabbed Ganieda's hand, leading her back toward the door. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ganieda laughed and followed her, shutting and locking the door behind her. She can see why Merlin likes her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-16 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	Belle smiled at the other girl, noting that they were about the same age. For some reason, she'd expected the other woman to be older. It was a hot, muggy day, and Belle immediately wondered why she'd suggested a walk. "What's your home like?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Most quiet. I lived on a quiet island, with nine women who taught me and not many others. There were many apple trees there." She squints in the sunlight. "And it was much cooler." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-17 09:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Apples're nice. I'm from a swamp." She shrugged. "It's hotter and stickier. I'm kinda glad I left." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-17 09:14 pm UTC (link)
	"That does sound rather uncomfortable. But you like it here better? I rather like it better at night. It's cooler and there are lights." Not as pretty as stars, perhaps, but they have a sort of man-made beauty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-17 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	"It was beautiful. I lived with my brother 'n' father. Well, until my brother died. Long story, not particularly worth tellin'." She put her hands in her pockets, for lack of anything better to do. The area around Ganieda's home was fascinating, in a weird way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-17 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	It's not a particularly wealthy neighborhood, not at all, and stores with signs in Spanish and English dominate. There are street vendors and sometimes buskers, though that is normally on the weekend. "I'm sorry your brother died." She can't imagine being wholly without her brother. She is very glad Merlin found her quickly. "What did you do, back in your home?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-17 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not." She'd kill him again if she had to. Even if she didn't have to, really. "I, uh, was going to take over my father's business. Been in de family f'r generations, along with everything else. Was an interesting environment to grow up in." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-17 10:25 pm UTC (link)
	Ganieda blinked, but said nothing. She knew full well that some families did not get along. "I do not know who my father is...or was," Ganieda murmured, as if to herself. The ladies never mentioned him at all. "What was it like, growing up there?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I'm sorry. My father was one of the greatest men I've ever known. Though I suppose if he didn't stick around, yours might not fall into that category."

She thought for a moment. "Hard. My life was planned out f'r me, down to what my children's names would be, and who the father of them would be, from the moment I was christened. Even though the intended groom changed down the line, the plan was always simple. I would marry t' further our power, and Julien would take over de guild. I'm almost glad things worked out how they did, but even more glad to be away from it all here."

	Ganieda smiled slightly. "That sounds rather like mine. Though not much was expected of me except to marry well." She squinted in the bright sunlight. "I miss that life sometimes, but I think that if I try, I may make a way here. Merlin seems to think I will do well." Ganieda is still very skeptical. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I hated it so much. My momma died in childbirth, and while I'm real glad to be alive, I'm not so much interested in producin' children for a guild that would push a person beyond their limits for another heir." She shut her mouth, through sheer force of will. "Oh, look, an ice cream truck." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_twin 2008-07-18 12:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Mine did too," she said softly, and listened. There was much more than met the eye with her. Much more. Ganieda smiled. "Well, that is one of the things about this world that I do like." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonwine 2008-07-18 06:00 pm UTC (link)
	"Bon!" Her expression was sunny, all seriousness absent from her demeanor. It was as though she was an entirely different person. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
