rebellious-ginger:

{ Alice nods— the Gardens are beautiful. ]

Don’t see why not. Thank ye.

{ She grins up at him. It’s been a while since she’s really had time to relax. }

Always get the inexplicable urge ta jump into the fountain when I’m there, me.

You’re very welcome. [smiles softly, and laughs] Can’t say I’ve ever had that urge. [continues walking, looking back at her to see if she’s following] Have you ever given into the urge?

{ And Alice is following, laughing softly. }

‘Course I have! I’m a Scot, me. We give into all sorts o’ ridiculous urges!

It's one of those nights...

odenberg-prince:

Turning on a new leaf, are we? Good for you.

Officially clean an’ sober, me.

It's one of those nights...

odenberg-prince:

You? Deal with things? I thought you were more the type to run away.

Ah… aye. Tryin’ a different approach. Hasn’t been treatin’ me too badly, either.

It's one of those nights...

rebellious-ginger:

Hey, Elliot.

Alice Buchanan. Didn’t know you were still around.

Ahm, nope! Sorry ta disappoint? Went home for a bit to… deal with some things, but I’m back now.

It's one of those nights...

{ Alice laughs too, ducking her head for a moment before she peeks back up at Dominic. }

Jus’… wanderin’, really. I do it a lot to clear my head.

[nods in understanding] I seem to do it a lot myself. I always end back up in the gardens, though. [smiles] Would you care to join me this day?

{ Alice nods— the Gardens are beautiful. ]

Don’t see why not. Thank ye.

rebellious-ginger:

{ Alice just looks at Dominic for a moment before she breaks into another smile and shrugs her shoulder. }

Maybe ye’re right. In that case, Scotland might not be doomed.

[chuckles] That’s the spirit. [looks at her curiously] Where were you heading, Alice? I was on my way to the gardens.

{ Alice laughs too, ducking her head for a moment before she peeks back up at Dominic. }

Jus’… wanderin’, really. I do it a lot to clear my head.

dominiclancaster:

[smiles] Not many people are truly a “queen” type naturally. It’s a rarity. You become that “type” from experience.

{ Alice just looks at Dominic for a moment before she breaks into another smile and shrugs her shoulder. }

Maybe ye’re right. In that case, Scotland might not be doomed.

dominiclancaster:

I know what you mean. I feel the same, at times.

It is quite phenomenal what a person can do under pressure, though. I’m sure you would make a fine queen.

Yeah? I’ll… hafta’ keep that in mind. I’m a bit… not the “queen-type”.

{ … ‘course there’s that bit about her being a recovering alcoholic and drug-user, but she isn’t bringing it up. }

dominiclancaster:

Indeed, I am. What about you, Alice Buchanan of Scotland? Is the throne going to be yours someday?

Oldest o’ my sisters, so… aye, it is. Bit… intimidatin’. Sometimes I wonder if I’m cut out for it.

Sun, 18 Nov 2012 20:20:21 -0500

dominiclancaster:

You are very welcome.

Ahhh… circumstances. Mainly, my parents said I needed to come back. [smiles] I was at home for a little bit.

Jus’ got back from home myself. Ye’re… in like for the throne, aye?

dominiclancaster:

Lovely to see, you, Alice.

Well, you are quite a sight for sore eyes.

You too, Dominic.

{ The Scot flushes faintly and waves a hand. }

Thanks. So, ahm… what brings ye back? Where’ve ye been?

dominiclancaster:

You would be correct, Miss… I’m sorry. I can’t seem to remember yours. Seems I should, with a face like that.

{ Alice merely chuckles, hands on her hips. }

Alice Buchanan. Of Scotland, if ye couldn’t tell. Accent’s a bit thick, I’ve been told.

{ She pauses, cocking a brow playfully. }

Oi. With a face like… what?

xheartofgold:

pink floyd - hey you

Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out
Would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I’m coming home.

rebellious-ginger:

Jus’ sort o’… walkin’, love. I do live here.

My apologies… I didn’t mean to sound rude. I’m admittedly a bit “on edge” lately.

{ Alice grins briefly, turning to look at the prince. }

Aren’t we all?

{ She recognizes him after a moment— she hasn’t seen him around in a long time. }

Dominic, aye? Lancaster?
