Gathering Post - London Calling

The world at large seemed heavier this week, bad news from across the pond drifting over like a bad storm and raining down on the city. Still, stiff upper lip and all that. If London had stopped every time things had seemed bleak, it would have fallen long ago.

And so life went on, as it must. 

The skies were a bit grey and the streets slightly damp, but the Christmas lights were coming on early this year, and Harrods already had the streets lit up with wonder and sparkle. Cafes and bars followed suit, and twinkling lights were everywhere you looked, casting a much needed bit of whimsy and wonder over the stark looking faces that passed by. It was hard to stay grim when children and adults alike seemed so entranced by it all.

There were plenty of events going on as well. From the Lord Mayor's Show or the Dulwich Christmas Bazaar, to the usual concerts, festivities, and even bowling

London may have looked a bit foggy and miserable, but there was pleanty of joy to be found for those who went looking.

(Gathering post! Just a nice mellow post to combat those post election blues, and balance out the drama from Halloween. As always, this post will be open for at least a week, so tag in and check back often to tag others. <3)

"I think the operative word there is seem," Anael pointed out with a soft smile. "Although some people have been very happy with their cats."

"Then I spoke wrong," Sunny amended. "The ones I like always manage to be some degree of uninterested." Though when that went to extremes such as finding her repulsive, she didn't like them much longer after that. "I'm hard to love, I guess."

"You're really not," Anael assured her with the easy confidence of one who did, in fact, love her.

"It feels like I am," Sunny murmured.

"Well." Anael smiled, the warmth of it tinting his voice as he spoke. "I might not be the one you'd want to hear this from, but I do love you."

Sunny couldn't help but smile a little. Even voicing grievances, right now it was very hard to actually feel bad in any way. "I'll take it," she assured him.

Anael's smile widened, and he pressed a kiss to her forehead. "Good."
