Resi stood at the edge of the bustling square, the crisp spring air filling her lungs. She hadn’t seen Lara in what felt like ages. Her heart quickened with excitement, and a soft smile played on her lips as she scanned the crowd. Then, there she was.

"Well, look at you," Resi called out, her voice a mixture of warmth and teasing. She took a few steps toward Lara, her eyes sparkling with affection. "Have you been hiding from me all this time, or did the mountains just swallow you up?"

She pulled her friend into a tight hug, her grip firm but gentle. "I can't believe it's really you. It's been far too long, Lara."

There was a half smile on the face of the blonde woman, it was always a thrill to see Resi again. She wasn't hard to pick out in a crowd, and once she'd spied her she made her way over that much quicker than she'd been. "Look at you" She had replied to her, but still twirled so that her friend could admire the sunflower patterned sundress that she was wearing. "I think the mountains might have swallowed me up a bit, but it is nice to be out and about again. I'm sorry if I have caused you some worry."

"It has been," She hugged her back, tightly. "How have you been? Anything new or exciting?"

“Living without protecting what needs to be protected is the same as death...”

"Hmm?"

The blonde woman tilted her head, placing down the flowers she'd been picking and eyeing the little reindeer in front of her.

"Is there something you feel needs to be protected that isn't being so?"

[chopperpirate]

Chopper blushed, his head lowering to avoid eye contact with the Swiss representative as he took in a deep breath, sighing in defeat.

"A lot of political turmoil is happening and I feel people are too obsessed with their own interests to even consider the right option."

[songofthealps]

"I see," She shifted a bit so that she was able to face the little reindeer in front of her.

"I think that is, unfortunately, common these days. Does any of it directly affect you?" Her head tilted as she wanted him to know she was paying attention.

@islandiis / continued 

At first, she’d worried she’d made a mistake. Not all people liked when someone just came to their home to see if they were alright, even if they had good intentions. Thankfully, Fannar only gave her the impression that he had seen a ghost for a few moments before he’d stepped to the side. And it was then that she could finally breathe for a moment, because she was sure that he wasn’t upset. At least.. If he was, he was masking it really well. 

“Nothing you need to apologize for,” She speaks as she does step into the doorway, reaching her hand down so she can slip her shoes off. “It’s not like you’re the only one who stepped away for a bit, and, you don’t need to be sorry about not sending anything my way either. I know we care about each other, we don’t need a gift to define it.” She smiled at him, genuine. Not truly one for material things, though sentimental when she had them from those she loved, she was more so someone who valued time. 

Observant as he was, he’d be likely to note that her hair was piled up in a bun with various strands poking out, the whole thing threatening to fall down in a heap. Her eyes had bags, which wasn’t the norm for her either. And, on a more subtle note, her socks didn’t match. Lara normally at least attempted to look put together. Today, however, that wasn’t happening. She’d stared at her mismatched socks for a moment when she was removing her shoes, but quickly tried to recover. 

She stepped in fully, placing her shoes in a corner before closing the door. “Ah, I’d love coffee if you’re in the mood for it.” And, once he invited her to stay for a bit, she worried her lower lip between her teeth. “Are you sure it wouldn’t be trouble..? I mean, I ask because, well, I did pack a bag or two in case I would be staying for a bit.” 

[songofthealps]

“Yeislandiis

“Thank you. It means a lot,” he says, genuinely. It’s always nice to know there is somewhere to go, if one just needs to… get away, you know? “Oh, I remember them! So sweet. I would love to see them again.”

“Oh, there are good snacks in Bónus. And 10/11 — eh, 10/11 is more, like, a convenience store, so more snacks and stuff like that. I can show you what is nice!” Although, he holds his hands up bashfully, and with a grateful smile he waves the idea away. “I couldn’t ask you to pay. You’re the guest — we’ll figure something out, but I can cover this.”

The door is closed after her, but (as usual), he doesn’t lock it. With a smile to her, he then leads her to the elevator, and pushes the button. To their right is a tall window, with a view of the city lights — it’s dark out, naturally, but they offer up a cozy sort of feeling. At least it’s not snowing, he figures.

“Do you like the dark winters?” He asks, glancing up at the elevator as they wait. “Some people find it depressing — and, I suppose, I get it. But I like them, somehow. They feel… cozy? Familiar? What about you?”

“Yes, I do think that it’s always nice to know that you have places that you can think of as a safe haven. I for one like knowing that I have people that I can rely on in the event that I want to get away for a bit.” She smiled warmly at him, counting him as one of the people that she knew that she could rely on. It was nice, and the warm feeling that she got from it was always positive. “But I am sure that they’d love to see you, too. You have a way with animals you know.”

She looked fascinated as he described the 10/11. “We have Kisok, which is kind of like a ‘coffee and more’ situation. You can get a lot of little things there, but yours sounds like it’s more fun. I am excited for you to show me as well.” When he offered to pay, her cheeks heat up a bit. She always felt a bit guilty when others paid for her. “Okay, how about you get it this time and I’ll get it next time, or the next thing that we do.”

“I do, and I also like when there is a bit of snow on the ground. There is something a bit magical about having all of the snow all around you, you know? And to be able to look up at the stars in the sky and to realize that we’re pretty tiny in this big world.” She glanced over his way. “What I do not like are really hot summers, I find that I burn easily and I’d prefer to avoid that if possible. Do you like the summers to be warm? I bet they’re lovely up here.”

@songofthealps from ask 

"I um-" How was she even going to put this? What could she even say? That she'd been in the right place at the right time for his friend to grab her and ask her to call for help? That she'd held pressure on a wound, come with him here? That she'd been sleeping in this chair the past couple of days because they'd said he might never wake up?

"I just was around one of our usual haunts. Something must have happened to you.. There was so much blood. I was so scared for you. We got you here and they told us you might never wake up again so I.. I've been sleeping in this chair and trying to keep an eye on you. I'm just relieved you're sitting up and talking."

Stares at her still a bit dazed but as she answered his question he became worried, shocked. “Where was I shot..” Was it one bullet or several? He tried to remember but his mind was still very fuzzy. 

“You just happened to be at the right place at the right time? I’m sorry I scared you.. and screw what the doctor said.. I’m fine..” As far as fine goes, he was alive and talking anyway. “Really darling I’m okay.. feel like shit but.. could be worse..” 

Tried to lighten the mood, wasn’t overtly fond of this and more so confused as to why she cared so much. Still it showed in her expression, her voice, this really scared her. 

“How long was I out.. I hope not too long.” Couple days, weeks? Hell if he knew, head was heavy, fuzzy and it felt like this very moment was some kind of dream. The beeping of the monitor he was hooked on was annoying enough to indicate it wasn’t though. 

“My friend.. was it a guy with messy black hair? Didn’t talk?”

“I mean, I happened to be in the area when this happened to you. I don’t know how it happened, I just heard something go off, and then I turned the corner and saw you and your friend. That was..” There was a visible shiver that went over her when she said it, looking like she was about thisclose to being ill. Being in medicine, there wasn’t much that made her nervous, but there were some things that did. And knowing there was a chance that he could have died was enough to make her feel ill. 

“Look, I care about you. Like it or not, you’re someone that I care a lot for. Either way, I’m here now, and I’m not planning on going away. I just want to make sure that you’re alright. As for my little spot in the corner, I’m fine. I’ve stepped away when I’ve needed to do things. And since my mom passed.. There isn’t a lot that I’ve had to do other than work. And with that.. Well I have a bit of paid time off. So I’ve kind of taken care of that.”

She shrugged when he told her that she could or should leave. “I don’t have a big desire to leave you. Not that there is much that I am missing at home. But, if you want to be alone for a bit now that you’ve woken up, I understand and can head home for a bit. Can come back later if you want. Would be happy to bring you something that you actually want to eat.”

“I um-” How was she even going to put this? What could she even say? That she’d been in the right place at the right time for his friend to grab her and ask her to call for help? That she’d held pressure on a wound, come with him here? That she’d been sleeping in this chair the past couple of days because they’d said he might never wake up?

“I just was around one of our usual haunts. Something must have happened to you.. There was so much blood. I was so scared for you. We got you here and they told us you might never wake up again so I.. I’ve been sleeping in this chair and trying to keep an eye on you. I’m just relieved you’re sitting up and talking.”

“You’ve been out for about two weeks. I mean, it’s not like it’s the least normal for something like this, but it doesn’t stop me from feeling a bit of worry about things. Like, the idea that you might not wake up did come to mind, and the fact that the doctors were saying that to me a bit. I’ve kind of made your room into my second home.”

She gestured the spot where the small chair was in the corner. Her laptop was there, plugged into the wall. She had some bottles of coffee, and other snacks, scattered about. There was even a change of clothing or two. She’d not been lying when she said that this was her home base. She’d stood a bit, made her way over to the bed, and then glanced down at his hand like she wanted to take it but wasn’t sure if she should. Her hand hoovered in an almost awkward position, and she held it there before she spoke again. 

“Yeah it was. And no, he didn’t talk.”

At first, she’d worried she’d made a mistake. Not all people liked when someone just came to their home to see if they were alright, even if they had good intentions. Thankfully, Fannar only gave her the impression that he had seen a ghost for a few moments before he’d stepped to the side. And it was then that she could finally breathe for a moment, because she was sure that he wasn’t upset. At least.. If he was, he was masking it really well. 

“Nothing you need to apologize for,” She speaks as she does step into the doorway, reaching her hand down so she can slip her shoes off. “It’s not like you’re the only one who stepped away for a bit, and, you don’t need to be sorry about not sending anything my way either. I know we care about each other, we don’t need a gift to define it.” She smiled at him, genuine. Not truly one for material things, though sentimental when she had them from those she loved, she was more so someone who valued time. 

Observant as he was, he’d be likely to note that her hair was piled up in a bun with various strands poking out, the whole thing threatening to fall down in a heap. Her eyes had bags, which wasn’t the norm for her either. And, on a more subtle note, her socks didn’t match. Lara normally at least attempted to look put together. Today, however, that wasn’t happening. She’d stared at her mismatched socks for a moment when she was removing her shoes, but quickly tried to recover. 

She stepped in fully, placing her shoes in a corner before closing the door. “Ah, I’d love coffee if you’re in the mood for it.” And, once he invited her to stay for a bit, she worried her lower lip between her teeth. “Are you sure it wouldn’t be trouble..? I mean, I ask because, well, I did pack a bag or two in case I would be staying for a bit.”

“Thank you,” He answers, with a small sigh of relief. Not that he doubted Lara wouldn’t be understanding, especially since it has been an impromptu visit — but still, it’s nice to hear. “Of course. Make yourself at home, okay?”

He nods as she hops back up, and tucks a lock of hair back behind his ear as he closes the fridge again and straightens up. “Alright! It does sound fun. Shopping is always better with company.” A smile, and then he pats his pockets to feel for his wallet. “Just a second while I get my coat on. It’s not a long walk, just a few minutes.”

Leaving for just a moment, he digs through his coat pockets and finds his wallet there, along with his keys. His phone is on him, so he nods to himself and then tugs his coat on, followed by his shoes.

“Oh, that’s maybe the only house rule! If you don’t mind, please take your shoes off here at the entrance.” It’s then that Mjási appears, stalking out of his bedroom and looking like she’s just woken up. He grins at her, kneeling down to ‘pspsps’ at her, but she only blinks at him and then wanders into the bathroom for her food. He rolls his eyes and straightens up.

“Children,” He says, like an exasperated mother, before holding the door open for her with a smile. A glance at his phone, and then out the window at the end of the corridor (dark, which tells him nothing — it’s Reykjavík!) and then suggests, “We’ve got a few hours before Bónus closes. Let’s get coffee, and then we can get groceries on the way back? Does that sound alright?”

------

“You’re so kind to me, truly. It’s nice of you to want to make sure that I am comfortable. You know that you are always welcome to come and stay at my home if you wish. You know, should you ever feel that you need a break. As I am sure you know, I have a small army of animals, all of which will probably want to come and love you. It’s just how they are.” She didn’t want to tangent too much, but did believe that he’d met at least a few of her furry friends in the past. 

She didn’t mind him taking a few moments to get ready, it would take her just as long to find her own coat, shrugging it on, and then going to retrieve her shoes where she’d left them, close to, but not quite where Fannar had indicated that she should. She made a mental note of where he wanted them, and nodded her head. “Sure! I don’t like shoes on in my home either. For as much as I don’t mind the dirt, I’d rather it stay outdoors where it belongs. You know?” 

She’d grinned when she saw Mjási, slightly saddened that she didn’t come over for pets, but determined that if she did come over by her later that she’d give her a lot of love. She nodded knowingly to his children comment. “Liebe is like that, though Maxwell and Pumpkin are a bit more friendly. Wonder if the three of them would get along.”

His plan sounded lovely, and she was quick to agree. “Can’t say that I have ever been to a Bónus before, so I am excited to be able to try out some of the things there. Do you recommend any snacks? I am happy to buy them for us.” She was Switzerland afterall, and more than happy to spend money on those she cared about. “I’m excited for the coffee too. Really just being here is so nice.”

“Thank you, for being so understanding,” he answers, equally genuine. He is the type to stress over gifts, although he does truly enjoy giving them, especially when handmade. But more than anything it’s just being thought about — knowing that someone would care enough to text or send him an email, that means a lot. It goes both ways, though, so he does feel a little guilty that he only turned his phone back on after the holidays had already come and gone. Still, he knows it was necessary.

If Fannar had noticed her mismatched socks, he draws no attention to it — although he had, admittedly, noticed her looking a little… worn.

“Of course. And, I’m certain — I will have to work, and I’d have to ask for your understanding with that. But, I can take the weekends off, and I have a spare key I can lend you. Although, eh, I… Don’t lock my door very often, between you and me.” He says it wish a sheepish laugh and rubs at the nape of his neck, before he gestures for her to follow him into the kitchen.

The coffee machine is started, and Fannar then pulls the little key - affixed to a keyring bearing the Icelandic flag - off from the side of his fridge. It’s pressed into her hand, and then he gestures to the seats at his kitchen table. “Please, feel free to sit. I’ll put together the spare bed while the coffee brews — unless you would like to take a shower?”

He also takes a moment to pull open the fridge, and then pensively presses a knuckle to his lips. Now he has company, he actually has to feel embarrassed about how bare his fridge is. “Actually, I should probably get groceries… Would you like to come with me so that you can decide what you would like? Or would you prefer just to rest here for a little bit?”

[songofthealps]

“No need to ask it’s already given.” She replies, referring to his request that she understand that he had to work. She did, and she was adept at finding ways to keep herself otherwise occupied. She was sure, at the very least, she’d be able to find a coffee shop that she’d fall in love with and could spend some time in.  “Besides, absence makes the heart grow fonder, I am sure it’ll make the time that we spend together over the weekend feel that much more special.” She always valued time with those that she cared for, but still. 

“Thank you for the key,” she’d replied, closing her hand around it and then slipping it into her pocket. Not one to misplace things, she was sure that she’d be able to keep it safe. She did take his offer to sit down, taking out her phone and quickly scrolling through. She never said that she’d be away, and she was sure there would be at least person who was wondering where she’d run off to. However, that was her prerogative, so it wasn’t more than a minute or two before she slipped it back into her pocket. 

It was in that time that her brain caught up with the fact that he wanted to know if she wanted to shower or come with him to the store. Mentally weighing her options, she hopped out of the chair, making her way over to him and leaning against the counter. “I think I’d like to come with you, it’s been awhile since I have been to a grocery store in Iceland, and you’d know more about what is here than I would. Besides, then I can help with the groceries.” It didn’t seem right to have Fannar have to spend more because she was there. 

Making her way back to her bag, she dug through it for a few moments before she produced a wristlet wallet that she slipped on before she strode back to him. “Come on, it’ll be fun. I can shower when we get back.” It was then that coffee dawned on her. “If you’re not wanting to make coffee before we go, I can get us some while we’re out, or we can make it when we come back.”
