Library [04/08]

Wesley was going to spend his library shift (surprise, surprise) reading today! Reading about what, you ask? Oh, who even cares. There were books and he was reading them. And occasionally laughing, though they were nonfiction and pretty dull.

[[open library, no OCD today]]

That garnered a wry smile from Tara.

"It's the only thing she wants," she said. "It'll be like ... like chopping off her arms or something, you know? It makes me worry about what she'll do if she never gets it. Um. In totally hypothetical terms."

Yes, yes, all hypothetical. Of course.

"I understand," Wesley said, and he really did. Hey, he knew all about missing out on your dream job, okay? Only in his case it was "fired" instead of "never picked." He sighed, and finally drew from his own personal experience on the subject. "I... I have confidence that she'll find a way to get what she wants anyway," he said, shrugging. "She's rather good at that. Even without the superpowers, I think she'll still find a way to, ah, get involved."

"I know," Tara said firmly. "Which is ... part of what scares me, in a weird way. I don't want her to get hurt. But it's not really up to me."

"I suppose not," Wes agreed softly. Hey, his girlfriend was about to go into an arena and try to kill people with a bow in order to save her own life. He got the whole anxiety thing.

"I... I suppose the difficult part is trusting her to know what she's doing in battle," he guessed. "Because she's quite skilled, obviously, but it's hard to remember that amidst the, er, nervousness about whether or not she'll be alright."

Kennedy. Not Katniss. Ahem.

"Right, and in a couple months she won't be here and I won't be able to, to stand beside her," Tara confessed, running a worried hand over her hair. "I trust her, but ... not everyone else. You sound like you get it. Thank you."

"Happy to help," he said easily. "I... I mean. Well. I know what you're going through. With the... worrying."

That wasn't awkward at all.

"I';m sorry," Tara said sympathetically. "Worrying about somebody ... it's the worst thing. Especially when you can't really help that much."
