Summary
She pretends not to know what she wants—she can’t know. She can’t. How can she admit it, if she doesn’t know what Laudna is thinking? (Is Imogen still capable, even if she doesn't hear Laudna say it? Is she still wonderful and talented and her tether? She feels a fire burn and she hadn’t known it had ever been lit.)
(or: scene-to-writing of That Scene in E65)

Summary
"I just…I wish I could hear you.” She waves a hand in the direction of her own head. “Up here. You know?”
“I’ll tell you anything you want to know,” Laudna promises, which is just goddamned delightful because Imogen wants to know everything.

Summary
It's almost lonely, this new calm in Imogen's head. Usually at the market she'd be treated to Laudna's light, musical inner dialogue about the ripeness of fruits or the bread Zhudanna might like best, but instead it's just quiet. All Imogen gets is what Laudna shows on her face, and the words she says out loud. Words like you don't have to listen in to get my thoughts. I'll always share them willingly. You can just ask.
There's only one thing Imogen wants to ask right now. It's blaring in Imogen's mind like a temple bell, so loudly that even with the circlet she's sure Laudna must be able to hear it. And Laudna is looking at her so sweetly. Every moment they've been parted has made this all-consuming feeling worse, harder to pack away, and this could be her last chance to say it. Her only chance.
She has to say it. She has to ask.
"Can I kiss you?"
OR
My take on The Kiss, and what comes after.

Summary
Imogen and Laudna alone for the first time, sharing a room in the Soot and Swill after Laudna's return. There's so much to say. And so little ability to say it.
