008 | Video/Action - Backdated to morning of 10/22

[Belle doesn't know what it is that wakes her up so suddenly. Her dreams had been peaceful and vibrant until she was suddenly yanked back into the waking world. For a moment she wonders if she heard a noise; wind against her window, birds or...perhaps Beast is back? Her heart beat speeds up with joy as she thinks it. That must be it. He's already been away so long...

Before she can think she's out of bed and throwing on a robe over her nightgown. She nearly races down the hall to Beast's room. She's not sure why, but she believes wholeheartedly that he'll be there when she opens the door. But he's not.

Belle moves slowly into the room, flicking on the light. It brightens up an empty room. Of course it's not exactly empty-all the furniture is in the proper place. But all of Beast's things, all the things that lended a personal feel to the room, a feeling of ownership, are gone. His journal, which she'd last seen laying on top of the nightstand, is gone as well.

She stomach drops as she stands in the middle of the abandoned room feeling lost. Silence echoes throughout the large house, making her feel sad and more alone than ever.]


[She spends the next couple of hours calming herself down. After all, Beast has other friends in the village that need to be notified. Finally she feels well enough to open her journal and speak her message.

Her eyes are red rimmed and her expression sad when she appears.]


Good morning, Luceti. I hope you are all well. I have some...unfortunate news to give. My dear friend Beast, whom some of you may know, has been sent back home. I only realized it this morning when I checked his room and found that his things have vanished during the night.

I am not acquainted with everyone he met during his stay here or I would tried to give the news in person. I would just like to say thank you for being his good friends, and ask you not to be too sad. I don't believe he would have wished that. [Belle attempts a weak grin before slowly closing her journal.]

[Later that day Belle can easily be found in the library, like usual. She's shelving books, working at the counter, or helping people find what they're looking for. Except there is now an air of sadness around her, and her ever present smile will start to fade as soon as she believes no one is looking.]

[He enters with a grateful nod. He peers around as he goes to set down the basket.]

Just some juice would be fine... please.

...It was him during the invasion, I thought. That's...what he said anyway. Adam?

[She is very, very confused. Did she say something wrong?]
windandrain: (Unsure)

I sort of...figured it out. We talked after the invasion, and during it he and I had a confrontation. An argument. I just sort of put things together, and asked him and he said yes. But honestly, Beast is a nicer name for him.

[He did settle into a seat at the table - a little fidgety and nervous. He wasn't sure about the best way to go about this, and he didn't want to mess up and somehow make things worse for her. He didn't want to lose his sister. But he gave a sheepish grin as Belle returned and claimed his juice]

Thank you, Belle. You're too kind.

I didn't mean to upset you further. I know that he did not mean to hide it from you. It probably just became more comfortable to be called Beast. I do know how that can be. Changing identities like that.

[He takes a moment to sip his juice, while thinking things over. Her eyes did look so sad. Would bringing up the subject directly make things better or worse? They had to start somewhere...]

Well... The thing is... I wanted to talk about Beast. And... how you're feeling.

No, you're probably right. You'll see him when you return to your world, after all. This is more of a temporary goodbye than anything else.

But even so, you shouldn't feel bad about missing him.

Yeah, alright, I have a question. [ he's peering at the shelves. ] What kind of order are these in?
savedtheworld: (serene)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2013-11-15 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
It isn't strange at all, Belle. There's nothing wrong with being sad.
windandrain: (Insolent)

Alright.

[Skeptical...but...]

Belle. Would you...like to come stay with Helios and I for a time? We have space in the castle. And I know from experience what losing a companion is like. When Valvalis departed, I was...lonely.

If it was an imposition, I wouldn't have offered. We've far too many rooms, and I should think that the dragons and Keiko would love having another person in the house to romp on.

You do like dogs, yes?
windandrain: (Pleasant)

Good, that's good to hear. I'll make sure a room is set up for you. Do you prefer ground level rooms, or higher up? The shift Helios and I had added to the house gave it some new height since you last visited.
savedtheworld: (sickly)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2013-11-18 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
Me? I'm - I'm getting used to it. I have been a friend of him. I knew him since... a while before you got here.
