Our Lady of Fandom; Monday [ 09/25 ]

[nun-better.livejournal.com]

Whistling slightly, Sister Rosette sat in the confessional today with the gun case, cleaning out her guns. They hadn't been getting much use around here lately, sure, but tht was all the more reason to make sure they were being maintained properly. And she figured the privacy of the confessional was a good spot to do it, as the little old ladies might not react well if she just sat in a pew and worked on them.

Chrono went about the usual cleaning tasks, ready to direct anyone to the nun should they need her.

Being quiet in a church was good. Hence River tried sneaking up on the nun. Her eyes widened when she saw the guns. "Church needs defending?" she asked.

Rosette jumped, nearly dropped the pistol she was working on; it juggled in her hands before she finally grasped it as it tried to clatter to the floor.

"How the hell did you get past Chrono?" she balked at the girl once she'd gotten her composure together. "People are supposed to go to the other side of the confessional, not this one. This is nuns and priests only, little missie." Rosette idly shook the pistol at River, then realized what she was doing, and quickly stopped, chuckling nervously as she set it back in the gun's case.

"Oh," River said, trying to look guilty. "But you didn't answer my question." She smiled sweetly.

Rosette sighed. "No, the church doesn't need protecting, not at the moment, but it doesn't hurt to keep things in good shape just in case it does, now, does it?"

She turned to River with a serious look on her face. "Now, are you here to make a confession, River? Although, you know, me knowing it's you defeats the whole way the system works. It's supposed to be anonymous."

River nodded. "I just came to say hello," she said. "And it's good that the church doesn't need protection. But if it does, I'll help." It felt good to be able to offer that.

Rosette smiled a smile of extreme relief. Confessions made her nervous. "Hello, then, River," she nodded, "and thanks for the help, should we need it."

Laura wore a scarf draped over her head as she entered, her gaze wandering as she tried to take in her surroundings. It was the first time she'd been in a stone-and-mortar temple since leaving Caprica. She took special note of the various religious symbols around the church, not sure if she recognized any of them.

Eyes fixed on the votives, she moved forward and knelt at the altar. She then withdrew a small, rolled piece of parchment. She swallowed hard, then watched as the flame danced closer to it, held over a candle.

Chrono watched the woman, quietly and certainly not without suspiction, while minding his various tasks. Something about her demenour, her presence, demanded his attention, though he tried to make it seem like he barely noticed her. She certainly seemed to know what she was there for, once she reached the alter, anyway, so he wouldn't disturb her. Just note, and watch, and remember. And continue to polish the candlesticks.

Her mind made up, Laura allowed the flame to light the tiny scroll, and she watched as it burned. The heat crept closer and closer to her fingers until she was finally forced to allow it to drop into one of the votive holders.

"Lords of Kobol, hear my prayer," she said quietly. Her gaze drifted to the paper that was now consumed and quickly becoming ash. A wistful smile played across her lips. "So say we all."

JOhn entered the church wiht a Mason jar, and lit a candle. Hey, it never hurt.
