Nineteenth Prophecy: Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend [Video]

[feel_nevermore]

[The feed switches on. Raven is sitting by the lake, staring at the water. The sun is setting behind the horizon. It's almost completely gone. Perfect date setting. Raven talks quietly as if someone was there with her.]

It's the first time you've ever stood me up, Harry. [A slight smirk.] ...And I can't even blame you for it.

[She picks up the PCD and looks just as impassible as always.]

For those who knew him, my boyfriend, Harry Potter is not here anymore.

And it seems that Spike has been sent back too. So if anyone else needs something to bleach their hair, just ask me. I'd hate to see the solution I prepared for him go to waste.

[And she cuts the feed. See Rei? She's learning. It doesn't hurt any less but at least she's getting better at hiding it.]


[Private video to Horst]
We could meet tonight at the bar? If you need to feed. Or whatever.

You did, yes.

[She shrugs.] Me neither.

[She ponders this a moment.] Pretty much everything you saw. But I didn't try to interpret what I saw, my main focus was on you and your emotions.

Were you able to interpret any of it?

[His curiosity is just getting the better of him now.]

War, pain and the feeling of betrayal were the easiest to make out. ...I'm sorry about your village.

It's not your fault, and don't think about that too much now. I was just curious.

If you're hungry or anything, I'm pretty sure Katara's back at the house.

It's normal that you are. I really hope it'll help you figure out things, and live better here. [As well as possible at least.]

[Raven smirks slightly. What is it with boys from Katara's world offering her food? First Sokka, now Jet.] I can cook. And so can my housemate. Don't worry. I ain't gonna let myself starve...

I don't have much to look forward to at home, may as well make myself comfortable.

[He returns it with a casual shrug.] Just an offer. I'm not sure...what else to.

That bad, huh? [Raven nods softly. She feels just the same some days. But she just doesn't think that she can avoid her Fate. Not even by staying here.] What was about to happen to you in your world when you were brought here? ...If you don't mind me asking.

I appreciate it.

I was going to help Aang find Appa. Just...apparently I die in the process.

[He says it without much hesitation having already heard the story more than once. Still, he never openly brought up the topic, but he trusted Raven with the rest of his memories, so why not this?]

What happens to you?

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Oh. [Not much to expect... Right.]

My spaceship crashes on some unknown planet.

[fn-rebel.livejournal.com]

Do you know what happens from anyone else from your world here?

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

No. My teammates and I had been attacked by an alien creature before that happened. And we got separated. [Her look and her voice are confident when she speaks next.] But I know they're alright. All of them. I trust them too.

[fn-rebel.livejournal.com]

That's good. You have nothing to worry about.

[He sounds strangely convincing.]

[offline]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It is.

[That earns him a small smile from Raven. She has more trust in her teammates than in anyone else. Let alone in herself. She's far less confident in her own abilities than what her calm and detached demeanor lets on.]
