Ramblings of an Old Kweer

The ninth, and penultimate story in this series about Dawn & Lisa is almost a mirror of the previous. This time we get a look at the close relationship between Lisa and her Father who, in my head canon, are almost more friends than father and daughter; becoming so when her mother died very early in Lisa's life.

A/N: Trillium is at the centre of a triangle of Hellmouth's, situated in Cleveland; Syracuse and Washington DC; known as the Tri-mouth, it has become the main base for the Slayer's. Another base has been established near London, under the command of Kennedy; others will, in time, follow.

Lisa had always kept a diary; written letters to her mom, often shared with her dad.

She also wrote lyrics; especially as her love of the more theatrical musical genres came to appeal more and more, delighting her when she was able to tease Dawn about her boyband fixations.

She won an essay contest with an essay about Oscar Wilde: Byron and Edgar Allen Poe, which won a hurried meeting between her teachers and father, before they, chastened, by his forceful support of her, allowed to enter it into the statewide contest.

He recognised it helped her deal with the loss of a mother she had never known; being too young to have any memories of her. He also saw her develop into a more intellectually confident version of her mother; indeed he found it fascinating and tearfully beautiful to see the woman he'd loved being reborn before his eyes.

So, as he listened between the pauses in their telephone conversations, he determined not to lose the woman his daughter had a chance of becoming; so full of potential, to the narrow-mindedness of his wife's family.

So he began to write her a letter, from her mother.

And himself.

As some have remarked I am poor at writing stories in chronological order; moreover, I would add, that I do not write stories, as such, but moments that try and build a picture from which a story can be imagined. Dawn and Lisa (her friend in the school scenes in “The Body”) have been a couple for quite some time; high school sweethearts they could be called, but now they both have to decide whether they can, together, take the major step beyond romance, into a more adult love.

Fall was a nightmare; Dawn unable to talk to anyone about why she was so short-tempered, and Lisa surrounded by a whole family trying to 'save' her, though she managed to find time, running, to cry over what might be a long wait to sin as she wished to; with whom she wished to.

Fortunately, as least as far as each could tell, no-one overheard them going over, word for word; self-recriminations innumerable, the row they had parted on.

Both had to find out of the way spots to release the tensions they had built up over time, by deciding to wait until college; cursing both the destruction of Sunnydale that had extended that wait almost beyond endurance.

Both ate their meals alone with their thoughts; only pretending to take part in the rituals of communal meals; easier for Dawn to actuate; easier for Lisa to deal with.

Dawn barely knew Kennedy, and Tara seemed to have changed drastically since Sunnydale; only capable of dark moods and solitude. Lisa had her father to talk to, though she couldn't tell him most of what she wanted to; knowing she'd be overheard.

They had a date, and a place.

That was all.

We are approximately three years past where the TV series ended. In this 'verse the destruction of Sunnydale occurred about a year later and now, two years later, the bulk of the Slayer Army created during those events is based in Pennsylvania, in the town of Trillium.

Institute meant Slayer Central; nobody in town was fooled, but Trillium had never been safer, so The Institute it was.

The nightlife had never been better either, with the males in town satisfyingly better behaved; especially the single guys who were married.

The residents also brought something into Trillium that it had lacked before; a cultural richness that wasn't from books and films; practical, not intellectual.

Dawn showed Lisa the best places in town; which included the library, which had seen its book collection rise stratospherically in quality since their arrival.

Lisa had never expected to feel so at home. 100

They talked; able to without worry of being understood by bystanders, about what they felt and needed and wanted, as they walked through shops, before ending at the library's new eaterie.

Neither mentioned missing parents; nor Sunnydale by name, though when they sat down that was all they discussed; almost all.

They were silent for a moment, each having a hand atop one anothers, when a woman; reminding Dawn a little of her mom, rose from the table behind them.

In heavily accented; coded English, she told them she might have a solution for them; apologised for overhearing them too.

Dawn, sweaty and still gasping for breath, started to pull clear of her dozing lover; intending to take a shower.

Lisa didn't seem to move at all, but the arm across Dawn's belly was suddenly holding her firmer, and there was a feint, “No, stay,”

Dawn sighed, and relented; not too reluctantly. Lisa nuzzled at her armpit, and sniffed ostentatiously; she loved the way Dawn smelt after sex.

A lot it seemed.

“I have tasted of the Tree of Knowledge.”

Dawn grinned at the muffled biblical quotation, replying with, “and I wish to Know you as much as I can.”

Dawn bit into her baklava; watching hopefully for Lisa's arrival.

Lisa had stayed in California with her father after Sunnydale's destruction; moving in with relatives in Cleveland for the same reasons Dawn lived with Buffy.

They had different majors; sharing some classes, but the longer travelling time had made this first year at college hard.

It had been a lonely week wondering if she would come this weekend.

They'd fought that last time at college.

She'd always looked forward to remainders week at Trillium's Public Library, and this was the first that conflated with free time for them both.

She knew Lisa would love the old shops in the district in which it sat.

If she... the barista passed her to open the door for Lisa as she walked in; arms full of bags.

She was wearing her mother's necklace.

Dawn, still full of doubt, pain, and insecurity because of her strange existence had.. said...

Lisa had lost her mother too; far too young to have any memories of hers as Dawn was blessed with.

Dropping her bags Lisa rushed to kiss Dawn, ignoring her stickiness; placed fingers over Dawn's lips as she made to speak, then kissed her again.
