[ Ariadne is sitting on the couch, an orange kitten curled up on her lap. Behind her is a man, who seems to be holding a cup of coffee and looking out the window. ]

Well. [ She pauses, rubbing the back of her neck. ] My father's here, but if anyone else would like to say hello or needs anything, I'm still available. He said he'll be going out for a walk in a little bit anyway.

[ As if on cue, the man pulls away from the window and heads for the kitchen. Ariadne watches him go, some of the tension gone when she looks back at the camera. ]

I'm Ariadne. Welcome to the City.

((ooc: Open for fourth walling! Please no telling her she's from a movie. Other than that, go wild~))

He said someone else in the cabin caught it before it could, luckily -- or, well, he said that the next day when he wasn't frozen anymore.

[ He'd also said not to ever have that happen to you while Fred was around, but she's not so sure if she should add that. It was shocking enough for the others, after all, and he's only just come back -- and she isn't sure if he'll stay when the weekend is over.

God, she hopes he'll stay when the weekend is over.

But then Molly asks that, and there's a slight fidget before Ariadne forces her hands to pet the kitten instead. ]

I can handle any trouble he tries to give me. I like to hope he's learning that. As for happiness, well... I can't speak for him, of course, and there are always going to be rough patches in any sort of relationship [ another scary word ], but... when it works, I'm happy, and it's enough to keep trying when those patches come around. I'm too stubborn to quit because of a few bad days.

[ Most awkward conversation of her life, and she's blushing and still focusing on petting Biscuit, but she means it. God, that makes it all sound so serious. ]
