Muse wakes up slowly and sits up just as slow. Her head feels like there's a bunch of teeny little beings in there hitting her on the inside and she winches. owie... She puts her hand to her forehead and winches all over 'gain, even her hands hurt! She has no idea where she is or how she got there but all she knows is she's gettin' featherdustry, real featherdustry. There's no being 'round, just like when she was put in the white room! Oh no... what happened?!

She pushes her-being up as fast as she can, even tho' it hurts bad to move at all. This place doesn't feel like the bad room but still, the PTB's are very tricky and if she's done somethin' so bad that They took 'way her mind 'gain then this must be Their room. She starts tremblin', even if she did somethin' really bad, she doesn't think she can stay and take her 'ment like a muse, not if this is 'nother place like the White Room. She goes clear and runs as fast as she can out of there. Maybe if she runs far and fast 'nough by the time They find her, They'll have forgotten that They put her in the different room at all and just yell. Yellin' she can deal with, maybe she can find a way to make right whatever she's done wrong, but not the other stuff... never the other stuff 'gain. She would rather fade 'way then that so she runs.

She has no idea where she's runnin' to but she winds up back at her tree house. She scrambles up and inside, maybe this place is safe. She glances 'round quickly, she can't feel Their presence yet but that doesn't mean an'thing. She darts over to her desk and climbs underneath it. Drawing her knees up to her chest, she wraps her arms 'round them and starts rockin' back an' forth. She hurts and she's more feather dustry than she's ever been and she knows now that runnin' 'way is a very bad thing. No matter what bad thing she must have done, she should have stayed 'cause now it'll prob'ly be amoeba time for sure. She hides her face 'gainst her arms and starts leakin'.

"It'll be okay Muse."

[b_mused]

Muse pulls back slightly and nibbles on her bottom lip and looks at him for a few seconds.

"I dunno 'bout that! I'm a feather duster Frostie!"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"Don't be scared until you know for sure you have something to be scared about. You might be perfectly safe then you'll feel silly for being scared later."

[b_mused]

Muse rests her poor boo-booed head back on his shoulder as he speaks. She tries hard to 'lieve what he's saying, after all he's Frostie!

*whispering* "Can't help it!"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"I know Muse. It's hard sometimes. I'll stay with you until you're not feather dustry no more okay?"

[b_mused]

"Okay..." *she keeps her blankie pulled 'round her tight as she curls up 'gainst him.* "But if They come you gotta go, 'kay?"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"If you really want me to, I will" He holds her close and starts singing her a lullabye, not to put her to sleep but to help calm her. This was good practice for when he has kids too.

[b_mused]

Muse's about to tell him that she doesn't want him to but she has to 'tect him until he starts singing quietly. She looks up at him an' just watches and listens. She's 'prised to hear that he's got a pretty voice but not like Elvis'.

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

He smiles at her while he sings, hoping it's helping to calm her down. He hates to see her cry or see her scared.

[b_mused]

Muse sniffles a little when he smiles at her then hides her face 'gainst him. She closes her eyes and tries hard not imaginate Frostie as a cactus but as she listens to him sing, she makes a promise to her-being that if They get him, she'll make sure he's put in a nice sunny spot and watered, lots!

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"Feel any better now, Muse?" he asks quietly.

[b_mused]

*muffled* "Well... ummm a little but Frostie?" *she peeks up at him.* "I'm one really sorry muse that I'm prob'ly gonna cause you to be turned into a cactus!"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"I'm not gonna be a cactus, Muse." he smiles.

[b_mused]

Muse peeks up at him.

"I hope not but if They do make you into a cactus, least you'd be easy to find cause I've never seen one with blue on top."

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

He nods. "Well as long as you keep me watered."

[b_mused]

"I would try really, really hard to 'member! Not like the time They said I should take care of the office's flowers and ummmm..." *she hides her face 'gain.*

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

He chuckles. "It's okay. Cactii can go awhile without water."

[b_mused]

Muse brings her hand up and folds them under her chin before looking back up at him.

"They can?"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"They sure can. They live in the desert, remember?"

[b_mused]

*shaking her head a little* "No they don't live in dessert silly, they live in the sand."

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

He laughs. "Desert is a very dry place, Muse. Dessert is something nummy that you eat."

[b_mused]

Muse nods slowly then mutters both words under her breath so just in a case neither one of them gets either cacti-ed or amoeba-zed she'll get it right.

"Like strawberries are dessert and that Zona place is a desert right?"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"Right." he nods. "Where's Carl? Wanna hug him?"

[b_mused]

Muse blinks and starts lookin' 'round.

"Uh oh!!"

[frost-bite-.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure he's here somewhere." he smiles. "Let's look."
