One's Nostalgia in Memoriam

-a collection of recollections-

---

A very tired-looking, grey-skinned woman paced around the room, taking bites into her fingernails every so often. When the door creaked, she stopped in place each time, and each time she listened for something more than simply the wind. She sighed with anxiety, and abrubtly thrust herself to the floor in a sitting position. She played with her scabbed toes, humming a familiar tune.

The door rattled. It was thrust inward, a stout, young lady standing in its portal. Stray raindrops began to fleck inward, until the dwarf woman pushed the door shut once more. She was soaked from head to toe, was carrying a burlap sack, and a very familiar, sheathed broadsword sat at her hip.

The sickly girl jumped to her feet, her deathly form suddenly full of energy. She wrapped her bony arms around the stocky one's body, nearly lifting her up. Their height difference not painfully so, they exchanged a tender kiss.

"Welcome home, my love," said the corpselike one.

The dwarf lady blushed in response. She set the bag she carried on a table inside, reaching in and withdrawing a damp loaf of bread. She fetched a heavy-looking knife from a rack above and chopped the loaf clean in half. She moved one half aside, and sliced the other into very thin pieces. She handed one of the pieces to the human, and took the opposite half and simply bit into it. Her companion nibbled politely, seeming very content.

The hungry-looking one finished her bread and slid over to her housemate. She laid her head tenderly in the other's lap, and nuzzled her belly. Still eating, the dwarf slid down her love's hood and gently pet her strawlike hair.

A youthful dwarf almost sat up in bad after a very pleasant night of sleep. She refrained from sitting up fully in order to allow her partner to remain aslumber. Softly, she lifted the bony arm from upon her breast, and set it down just as carefully back upon the bed.

She undressed from her shift without taking her eyes off of her darling. She equipped her daily wear, leather under-armor and a light hauberk, and grinned down at the bed once more. Her lover slept as soundly as the dead, and looked quite similar as well.

The sleeping one's grey feet were exposed at the end of the bed. The dwarf cocked her head, then reached down to pull the woolen blanket over again, to prevent her precious' feet from freezing.

“Keep yer' feeties warm, luv.”

Satisfied, she stepped out of the building for an indeterminate amount of time.

A pair of young women stood in a cold, Northern town, its strip long and generously sprinkled with guards. They shot suspicious looks to a zombie-like girl on the arm of a dwarf. Looks like that were expected, due to the high fear of certain types of people during that time.

The stout woman shot the guards equally dirty looks. The broadsword at her hip was always being clutched with one fist, and her love always with the other. The trio wandered down the town's main road, reminiscing about how it used to be a desert hold. It was just as bleak then.

“Undead! Kill her!” Somebody shouted. The dwarf lady glanced around, to see an accusatory finger pointing at her darling. The one who was accused whimpered, and cowered behind her siginificantly stockier companion. The dwarf lady growled threateningly.

“Yeh' got sumthin' tah say about mah' honey?” She half-drew her broadsword in rage.

The shouter backed down, quite intimidated by the angry dwarf. The two mismatched ladies continued their travel uninhibited.

A quiet night on the ice plains of old Aegis. Ingot and Annabelle sat at the top of a dark tower... one was live, the other dead. However, the one who appeared a corpse was not the one who was lost from this mortal world. The one who was limp was the young dwarf. Her choice no doubt skewed from her spectacular love, she had given her life so that the other could live. The grey lady wept for days over the body of her love. She became almost as limp in her pit of depression.

Yet, the corpselike Annabelle carried on. The love she felt was never diminished, however... and while her status as truly 'alive' could be disputed, her love could never be. The only immortality that is truly shared between two souls.

Apologies if there's anything bad in it. I can't read this without tearing up so I'm not going to.

I'm fairly certain that the ban is appealable via skype.

It's a different kind of goodbye, unrelated to LoTC as a whole.

Intrigued by Ever's comment going along the lines of 'this is a different goodbye unrelated to LotC as a whole'. Are you hinting at this being a suicide note?
