Oliver - when he heard her voice he smiled and looked up at her. he put a hand on top of her. "Sorry honey, i just really needed a break, if i stared at that paper for any longer i would start crying" he chuckled, just being around her put him in a better mood. "what have you been up to, gardening?" he carefully turned the chair to look up at her, and carefully pushed himself to his feet. he couldn't really move but he could stand there. standing he was taller then her and carefully put his arms around her waist "how are you this morning, my love?" he asked, smiling widely, staring into her lilac eyes."you get any sleep last night?" Andromeda - she sat quietly on a bench. it over-looked the busiest street of their little community. she had a sketch pad on her lap, opened to a fresh page, a set of water colors balanced on her knee. the wind gently pulled at the veil over her face. it fluttered but did not come free. she watched everyone around her with quiet bemusement. she didn't talk very often anymore but she still found people fascinating, she hadn't had much interaction with people before she went to Athalia, and when she got there she had gotten better. but the destruction of the school had damaged her, she knew it, she'd reverted in a manner of speaking. she preferred the safety of her own mind to dealing with people. but the interactions among them were interesting. she twirled a pencil in her hand before stopping and quickly sketching out the tree in front of her. then she went back to twirling it and watching people go by.
