Subject:      Re: INT: Haven for Hopeful Romantics (A Dysmal Day?)

     Beast and his Beauty stepped into the foyer of the Haven for Hopeful
Romantics. As she looked around, Beauty realized that she missed her
friends and was glad to get to see them again, but she also realized that
she was no longer just hopeful...her hope for a life of romance had been
realized many times over with Beast.
     "I'm so glad to see you, Barbara!" the Beauty said while hugging her
friend.
     She glanced back at her beloved and saw him roll his fantastically
beautiful blue eyes. She knew Beast only attended because she had asked
him to...even though in this time-frame he reverted to his feline
features.
     After all, last year's Valentine's celebration was where they had
fallen in love.
     "Let's go see Egideas," the Beauty said quietly to Beast as she
slipped her hand into his massive, but soft paw.
     Beast smiled at his lady and looked relieved to be leaving all the
cheery welcomings in the foyer...besides, Egideas' breath would remind
Beast of home.
     "Oh, he doesn't want to go see some silly dragon!" an insistent
female voice said as it neared the foyer. "Let *me* show you around," the
woman said while batting her incredibly long eyelashes at Beast and began
to drag him toward the gardens. "Hi! My name's White, Snow White...but
you can call me Snow."
     Beauty watched Beast head toward the garden and sighed. She trusted
Beast not to get his fairy tai...uh...tales mixed up...but it *was*
almost Valentine's Day.  ;)
