Day 7: Come back soon
Rated Teen, Laral/Lyn, Rhythm of War spoilers
Can you fly?
Not without you.
Hi, Lyn. I was worried about you all day. Are you okay?
Yeah. I kicked Fused ass as usual. Can’t say too many details but it was good. I got to save Kara too so we’ll have to figure out how she can pay me back.
You know I don’t like it when you save other women.
And you know I like it when you get jealous.
That is no way to treat a Citylady!
Oh, sorry Brightness. Will you ever forgive me? I’m curtseying so deep right now. How are the twins?
I’ll forgive you if you stay alive. They miss your flying lessons. They’re obsessed with becoming Windrunners. Battah save my sanity. Oh, and they broke one of the spears you gave them.
What happened?
One held it between two chairs and the other jumped on it. Broke it right in half and caused a huge snap noise. I thought one of them had smacked his head and killed himself.
I guess I’ll have to give them the “spears are not for jumping” lesson when I get home.
How long until you're home?
You ask me that every day, Laral. It’s yesterday’s number minus one.
No, tell me. I need to hear it from you.
Well, since you're asking so nicely. Eight more days, then I’m home. You didn’t work yourself to the bone again today, did you? Let Hesina help you.
She’s busy with that extra stuff Kaladin is doing.
She’s not too busy for you and you know it. I confirmed it with her before I left. Maybe tomorrow I’ll spend my assigned spanreed time on her instead of you, just to make sure you’re not a husk of a woman when I return.
You wouldn’t dare.
Oh I would. I will do it Laral, I swear on Nalan’s right arm!
Alright, fine! I’ll talk to Hesina tomorrow.
Tonight. It’s not even sunset yet in Urithiru.
Tonight, then. And I’ll use all my free time tomorrow to worry about you dying.
You still having nightmares?
Yes. You still there?
Yeah. I wish I could help with those. I’m sorry.
Just come back soon, okay?
As soon as I can.
