Title: Welcome Home Rating: PG Prompt: #58 - you're more trouble than you're worth Summary: Aly's exploits do not go unnoticed.
-
"Alianne."
Aly jumps at the sound of her full name, then reflexively shoves the lockpick down her boot.
"Ma!" she says, opening her arms. "You're home!"
Alanna looks at her daughter. "I am," she says. "For the next month at least."
"Da'll be pleased," Aly says. "Me too, of course. I have been ever so lonely without company."
"I'm sure I'll hear the same from Arin of Irimor, if I were to ask." Alanna sits heavily on the ottoman. "Lovely young man, I'm told."
Aly wrinkles her nose. "He's boring," she says.
"Picking locks is more interesting?" Alanna rolls her eyes. "Aly, you-- you know you can't keep doing this." Aly's lips become pinched, and Alanna pretends not to notice. "Let's find your father then, shall we?"

Cass, I adore you! I like how much we can get from this fic - that Alanna is aware of her home life despite not being around, the slight tension in her relationship with Aly, and Aly's pursuit of illicit activities. Excellent prompt interpretation!

I have to say, using the prompt for these two characters was brilliant.

Lovely, lovely writing. You bring them to life so well, and so TRULY. By not elaborating too much, you say so much more than just words.
