To Those in the Know

[angels_facade]

Today I was sulking because no one's found Thomas yet, so I went to visit Chloe. Because Chloe's still here and that's important. I chatted with Tallulah, who is a riot and a half, and then I came home and I was sulking more. And then my daughter Zoe came up to me and gave me a picture of a flower she'd found in a book. Which, destruction of property aside, was absolutely darling.

And then, not to be outdone, Bianca made up a song about Mummy and stars and fishes, which was adorable and now I want to put it to metal.

For I am hardcore.

I'm not okay about Thomas. I want him found. I love him. And I'm terrified about this disease because it keeps hurting the people I love. My best friend's daughter and my cousin Anna and dear Allanah. God forbid it get to anyone else. (You're being careful with yourself, Mara and James, right, Spectre? And D Ro, what about you?) But life here in my safe little haven? It's good.

I'm being very sure to look after myself and the kids, sweetheart. We're all doing our best, and thankfully, there's been not a hint of this illness at our house yet. I'm very glad to hear that things are well in your home, too.

I'm not giving up on Thomas. I'm going there every day until I find him.

It better fucking stay that way, Mister. You hear me? Or you'll have to deal with Kat.

I keep remembering...one day I was bleeding. I was pregnant and bleeding and Ethan was there, but it was Thomas that scooped me into his arms and rushed me to hospital and Thomas who pounded against the counter and demanded I be helped and Thomas who ultimately saved my kids' lives.

Now people are bleeding and Thomas isn't here to save them.

[in-spectre-mors.livejournal.com]

And that is a powerful threat, my dear. Believe me, I shall do my utmost. We all will.

Thomas is a true hero. He's saved so many of us, in so many ways. To have saved lives as precious as your babies'... there aren't words enough. I wish he could be here now for all who need him, and for him.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

I know katrate. HAhaha...oh god.

So do I. And I wish I could help but all I can do is sit around missing him.

I can give you a massage!? Do you want one?

[in-spectre-mors.livejournal.com]

Dear me. I think Tasha should arrest you for that one... or perhaps that ought to be Alessa's job?

I believe that missing him is an emotional beacon. Thomas always knows when people need him. It's the power of love.

Kat, I would love the magic of your skills. I truly think it would do me a lot of good. Thank you.

Alessa's hot when she's all dominatey. Mmmm.

So I should keep on wallowing? Good, it ain't stopping anytime soon anyway.

Of course. I'll come now and then get Renee on my way back. We'll have you relaxing soon enough.

[in-spectre-mors.livejournal.com]

I don't doubt it! Of course, my appreciation for Alessa's beauty must remain utterly academic...

Well, I don't know about wallowing, but I don't think having him constantly in our thoughts will hurt at all.

Thank you again, Kat. You're fabulous.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

That's fair too!

He's there. Always will be.

I try, Spectre.

[in-spectre-mors.livejournal.com]

Always.

Sometimes people cry on the table because massage releases endorphins and toxins...

I just want you to know it's okay. I understand. And I feel it too. If you need to cry...please do.

Thank you for saying that, Kat. I don't think I would have felt badly to cry in front of you, but it's very kind of you to make sure I know. I'll keep in mind that it's perhaps something to be expected.

We have the best daughters :)

I'm glad you got to spend time with Chloe. It's really good that she has so many loving friends surrounding her right now.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

Hell yes we do. They're so adorable and I can't believe they're almost two. TWO. And they keep asking questions and sounding like mini-grown ups.

I love that Chloe-O. And I prattled on about crap and filled her in on the Lugosi's goss which was good.

[gonetoground.livejournal.com]

The questions are only going to get more tricksy, too...

I think having someone as vibrant and dynamic as you around would be exactly what she needed. You can light up any place, even a mind-numbing hospital room.

"Why does life exist and what am I meant to get out of it? I'd like an answer that relates to semiotics please." Yeah. Whoa.

I do try! My pink hair does kinda stand out.

[gonetoground.livejournal.com]

They have been talking to Renee...

It's not just your hair that stands out, babe.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

They love talking to Renee, she's all French!

You're wonderful, do you know that? You're getting rewarded with the strap on, tonight!

[gonetoground.livejournal.com]

We're going to raise bi-lingual hotties, Kat.

Oooh, good reward! I shall keep being wonderful :) It's only fair, after all, to do my best to match you.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

Yeah!! We totally are! :D

I am so spoiled.

[gonetoground.livejournal.com]

I love to spoil :)

[milestogobefore.livejournal.com]

Thank you. So much.

[seminalsemiotic.livejournal.com]

Your little girls are absolutely gorgeous. It's obvious they've been surrounded by love, to be so loving in return.

I'm not okay with this Thomas thing, either. I'm praying he'll be found soon. I don't want him to be lonely out there, wherever he is.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

As if I'd ever let them be surrounded by anything else.

Oh god, do you think he's lonely?!

[seminalsemiotic.livejournal.com]

So true.

I hope he isn't. But I wish we had the ability to be sure.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

Thomas needs a goddamn afterlife cowbell.

How are you? Feel like cuddling with two hotties and their babies?

[seminalsemiotic.livejournal.com]

Goddess, I can just imagine him chasing Robert around with it, pretending to be the Hunchback of Notre Dame...

Cuddling with two hotties and their babies is an offer I would never pass up. I'm there, gorgeous.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

...that is AWESOME. OMG. And Thomas would love it!!

Good. I'll come round after I rub Spectre up and walk you back here.

[seminalsemiotic.livejournal.com]

Running around all humpy, with a squinty eye, and probably drooling for effect...

*snort* Rubbing up gay rock stars? Priceless.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

Brilliant.

That's what pink Kats do! Hell, my wife is one! Says the drummer ;)

[seminalsemiotic.livejournal.com]

Hehehe, good point! You're just surrounded by that muso mojo.

[angels-facade.livejournal.com]

Hell yes!
