Library (05/04)

Not having ACJ to go to, Rory actually opened the library on time for once.

Which wasn't all that helpful, anyway, since she was mostly asleep still.

Archie looked guilty as he shook his head and shrugged. "I can't quite explain it. I've got quite the challenge ahead of me, and what holds me back is the knowledge that -- absurd as this sounds -- as long as I'm here I'm safe. I can't, or won't, make myself meet those challenges when I know that as long as I remain here my existence is, to some degree, a charmed one."

He picked absently at a loose thread on his cuff. "I love it here. But I don't believe I can grow in the manner I need to as long as I stay."

"That...makes sense, I guess," Rory said slowly. "Though I don't like the idea that you're purposely leaving safety."

"I'm a sailor," Archie replied with the tiniest hint of bitterness in his tone. "Living safely isn't what I do."

Rory was quiet for a moment, then said, "You'll visit."

Again, not a question.

Archie didn't want to promise anything, but just didn't have the heart to upset Rory.

"I'll do my best," he told her, hoping it didn't seem like too much of an evasion. "If it's at all possible, I will."

Rory nodded, taking that for a 'yes' like the foolish, foolish girl she was.

"Good. Because otherwise I'll have to go find you and beat you up," she said seriously.

"God forbid," Archie replied just as seriously.

"I might even get Vladdie in on it."

Archie feigned horror. "Rory Gilmore, you play dirty."
