piwakawaka: (thoughtful)
Returning from the Bar wasn't fun though the cookies were a warm weight in her pocket. The crowds on Cuba Mall were still busy and she was spotted in the crowd. So she plunged deeper in, praying that Liam and Tane were doing better and almost falling over as a man loomed in front of her.

He could have been a preacher but the hatred and banality rising off of him made her head hurt. After the light and laughter of James, he was a black hole who reached for her and she opened her mouth and cried out,

"Leave me alone, leave me alone!!"

The crowds turned towards them as he muttered, trying to find a way to hold her and she could feel that he had cold iron but wouldn't give him a chance as a policeman came by,

"What's happening here?"

"H.he tried to touch me. Was just trying to find my Jamie, he gave me his jacket cause it got all cold. We were just shopping for the dance."

She makes the words tumble out and her accent be more Maori as she holds onto the thought of missing James, which works far too well. He nods and gives the preacher a look and he mutters,

"Just trying to save her soul, been corrupted."

"Try it again and I'll have you arrested. Now get out of my sight before I change my mind."

Then he turns and slips into the crowd, giving Tiwa a look of such frightening emptiness and hatred, it makes her shiver.

Liam and Tane hear her crying and she doesn't even hear them talking to the policeman before they head back to court. They know they'll face trouble but what keeps hurting is the way James choked on that cookie, was a stupid thing to say anyway.

Everyone fusses again and Dan takes his jacket back as he gives her a hug and she flies home, tired of so much fuss. Proper and older warriors go hunting the Dauntain and take them down so Wellington is as safe as it can be for a Changeling.

School is boring, rugby season is some distraction and Tiwa hoards a bag of cookies as she wishes a door would just open again.
