Thirteen reasons why Yvaine is a Venomous Spider Woman.

1) She is not Victoria.
2) She shrieks like a banshee.
3) She never stops yelling.

4) She can always find something to complain about.
5) She hates everything on earth, especially me.
6) She can't sleep at a normal hour.
7) She goes off without warning to live with strange men.
8) I have to constantly worry about her.
9) There is a deranged witch trying to cut out her heart.
10) A deranged witch trying to kill her means a deranged witch trying to kill me.
11) I have to protect her and myself from said witch.
12) She's making the journey back to Wall take far longer than it should.
13) She's plotting to steal my mushroom.

Can you explain 9 through 11? And 7 as well.

It is a long story.

Oh. Well, I have time.

7) Currently she is living with Dorian Gray. He may also resemble my father, but his personality is... is well- it's peculiar.

Oh and you're just so normal.

That's exactly what I am, Yvaine.

And for numbers nine through eleven--

A heart of a star is useful to certain individuals, and that bloody witch is one of them. She is very intent on taking it, even tricking Yvaine with false hospitality while plotting to cut out her heart.

[ Vague is best for anything put on the network. ]

She would have gotten it if her sisters hadn't warned me, not to mention, if I hadn't gotten there in time. And if... if I didn't have the Babylon Candle, then we would be stuck in quite a mess. A mess is one way to call it.

What is wrong with Dorian Gray?

What witch and is she here?

We didn't- We didn't get familiar enough to find out her name, luckily. But I don't think she's in the city. I bet she would have come after Yvaine already if she was.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

That is good to know.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Dorian has handsome hair to begin with, he may be a little vain, that's all.

[gazingup.livejournal.com]

But he has no right to go about my own hair. It's... it's in fashion back in my time, did you know?

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

No. I did not know.

sob

[gazingup.livejournal.com]

Well, it's true.

audio

[shiningdown.livejournal.com]

I doubt it. She likely would have made her presence already known by now.

audio

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

I am relieved to hear it, but if she does arrive ever, you know my sword is at your side.

audio

[shiningdown.livejournal.com]

[ pause ]

I don't know that a sword would be much good against her.

audio

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

You might be surprised by what a sword can do to a witch.

audio

[shiningdown.livejournal.com]

[ she is busy being contrary with one person, and so she pauses before sighing ]

Perhaps.

audio

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Are you still living with Dorian?

audio

[shiningdown.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[ pause ]

But it's more a place to stay, less a place to live. I still prefer an open sky.
