A Seemingly Peaceful Day

[Scarlett De Fontaine]

Braxa smiled. "Yeah, thanks, Mum."

Dahlia smiled. "That's alright. Now go on, I have to get back to work."

Braxa nodded and headed out of the library. She sent to Gandalf, "We should talk to Dad anyway. I know Mum will check with him to make sure we asked."

Gandalf smiled as he followed Braxa out, 'Good point, where would he be around now? he sent back.

[Scarlett De Fontaine]

"He'd probably be in his office. It might be lunch time by now, so he may not be working now," Braxa sent. Her father worked for the High Council and had been since before she was born. She just hoped they wouldn't run into Emmehujidat.

[Deleted]

'Okay, let's see if we can't get a few minutes to talk to him. Gandalf sent back, also hoping that they wouldn't run into the most pompous idiot this side of Gallifrey.

Braxa headed for the center of the Citadel. She had only been to his office a couple of times. She hoped she could remember the way. She walked into a familiar looking government building then looked for the way to the room she wanted.

Gandalf checked for the list of office locations corresponding with Council members. After finding it he indicated the hall that led to Braxa's dad's office. "This way Brax."

[Scarlett De Fontaine]

Braxa looked up, glancing at the listing as she followed him. She found the name: Gyerangeloundela. People always called him Gyera for short.

Gyera sat in his office, filing the last of his papers before his lunch break. When he was done, he started into his lunch bag.

As Gandalf arrived at Gyera's office he glanced behind him to make sure Braxa was there. After that he knocked on the door, hoping that he was in.

[Scarlett De Fontaine]

Gyera looked up when he heard the door sighing in frustration, thinking it was one of his bosses. He got up and opened the door, happily surprised to see Gandalf there, followed behind by Braxa. He smiled. "Hey, you two. What brings you up here?" He got out of the way of the door. "Come in, come in."

[Deleted]

Gandalf nodded, "Thank you sir. Well, we're here to ask your permission about a certain alteration in Brax's living arrangements. You see, I was able to get Hera job at the TARDIS Mechanization Corporation and we were of the opinion, since I've had to take several pay cuts recently and since her current pay isn't enough to rent a house on its own, we thought it would be a good idea to use both of our income in the use of renting a single house. We already spoke to your wife about this manner and we've been given her consent on the manner."

(Hera? XP)

Gyera smiled. "It sounds like a very insightful idea. It sounds alright by me." Almost a millennium back, he remembered the loss of the King of Gallifrey, whom all seemed to have forgotten by now. He had thought that perhaps Gandalf was the missing heir that had been rumored to exist. Those rumors had died out since before Braxa was born, but he still believed in them.

Braxa smiled. "Thank you." She almost tackled him like she had her mother.

(iPod does this auto-spelling correction thing. I typed in "her" and I probably accidentally hit something else so it auto-corrected it. For some strange reason it changes "the" to "tge" a lot.)

Gandalf smiled, "Thank you sir. Hope you have a good day." he said.

[Scarlett De Fontaine]

(Oh, fun)

Gyera smiled and nodded. "My pleasure. You, too."

Braxa smiled and looked at Gandalf. Maybe this meant that maybe their relationship could go a bit further.

[Deleted]

'Well, shall we go? Gandalf sent to Braxa as he nodded at Gyera and walked out.

[Scarlett De Fontaine]

"Yeah, but where to next?" Braxa asked. She gave a short wave to her father before going to catch up with Gandalf. "It's about time for lunch." She tried to think of somewhere to go to eat. "Maybe we could swing by the house and I can make us something."
