Work Text:
The girl moves away, so swiftly she doesn’t see Liandrin stagger, then swoon a little. Lanfear moves swiftly, pulling Liandrin close even as her arm wraps around her a little tighter. She had seen the exhaustion in the woman’s eyes but when she swoons so clearly it’s a sign she’s ready to go home.
Lanfear would always deny using her skill to bring them home safely, but she settles slowly, brings Liandrin’s head down into her lap and strokes soft blonde hair from closed eyes. She’s beautiful even now, resting at last.
“One day you’ll swoon for me, my Darkling… for now, rest yourself, we have work still to do.”
