  1. Mary Lou Layton

    Closed Former Peers

    It was nice to be out of the house whenever she could be, especially now with three kids at home. Whilst she'd happily left Monty and Maddie with Wendall, Marvin was still not even one, and so she tended to keep him close to the chest, as it were. That was why she was heading out to meet up with...
  2. Mary Lou Layton

    Closed time well spent

    She laughs slightly at what she deems to be something akin to panic. She has never really considered that Kalif might be one to panic, but she supposes that it can sometimes happen. She grins at him and squeezes him slightly on the shoulder. "I trust you, don't be silly, I knew you would not...

    She shook her head as he called her invitation trivial. She didn't think it was trivial, and Kalif was her friend, so she was calling help, wasn't that sort of the point? "You'll be fine," she said, ignoring his comment on protection because honestly, that was unnecessary. She loved her children...

    Closed Lessons In Duelling

    Mary Lou grimaced internally at realising she may have gone just a tad overboard with her spells. Still, he'd directed her to think of him as an intruder, intruder meant bad, and if they were in her home then she did not trust them. She had to defend her children at all costs and that meant she...

    Mary Lou's eyes twinkled in amusement as she heard Kalif's distinctive and familiar voice. She looked up from where she stood, gently rocking Marvin, and flashed him a smile that was welcoming, and a little bit mischievous. "Kalif, always straight to the point," she said with a soft laugh. "Of...

    Closed Lessons In Duelling

    It's not that Mary Lou is angry, not at anyone in particular anyway, but the world is a horrifying place sometimes and honestly given none of her children seem to understand or know what sleep was despite her best efforts to try and teach them, Mary Lou had been practically running on empty for...

    Closed time well spent

    Mary Lou did not often have time to make time for other people, but since Monty's ridiculous announcement that he was (almost literally) setting them up for life, it was hard for Mary Lou to convince herself she couldn't take one or two moments for her own. Marvin was now nearly an entire month...

    Closed Thinking About the Future

    The broken tea cup as settling at the back of her mind, and it didn't feel right that it was still sitting on the floor, shattered into a hundred pieces. It felt like a symbol of something, but she couldn't quite figure out what. It didn't seem right that Monty should be offering something like...

    Closed Thinking About the Future

    Wendall, typically, was a bit of a mess, and Mary Lou had to work harder than usual to refrain from commenting on his state of unpreparedness in the face of their guest. In fairness, she hadn't been expecting him either, and she'd forgotten about him coming to see them completely. She...

    Closed Thinking About the Future

    "Montana, my sweet angel, please don't pull on Madeira's hair, we can give her a haircut later, but she needs hair to cut." Mary Lou sometimes wondered if she had erred and in trying to explain haircuts to her eldest, but it was delightful seeing her trying to help and Mary Lou was loathe to...

    Closed Bless yer heart xx

    The mood was a little less tense than it had been, and Mary Lou was glad for it. In all honesty she had never been very good with anything even slightly tense, but she'd gotten really good at faking it. She'd had to, back in school, with little to no support at any point. Then when everything...

    Closed Bless yer heart xx

    Mary Lou wanted to say that it was okay, that she'd survived and gotten over it, but the more she sat thinking about it, with Monty, on her own, whenever, the more she'd started to think that maybe what she'd actually done was bury, because she had to, no one else seemed like they were going to...

    Closed Bless yer heart xx

    She hadn't meant to really get into this today, but now that Monty had outright asked her she found that she couldn't stop herself from talking about it. "Luxen was horrible to me, and not just me either. He seemed to have a thing against anyone I even spoke to. I don't think he ever had a kind...

    Mary Lou couldn't say she was entirely sure why she'd brought it up, other than it just seemed like a good moment to do so. She'd been wanting to talk about this for so long and she hadn't really had anyone to talk about it with. It was different when she spoke to Wendall, she loved him, but...

    Carrying on. That's what they were supposed to do. Mary Lou hated it. It felt like being told to suck it up - and she'd had enough of that too. But she didn't want to tell Monty that, it wasn't going to help. So she did what everyone did. Decided to carry on. It would work eventually, as much...

    Mary Lou accepted the cushion without much word, feeling very much like she might have pushed herself a little too far this morning. Anything for her family and those she chose to love. She didn't say much at first, as she watched him steam the tea and politely took a sip despite the unique...

    Sometimes. Not often, but sometimes Mary Lou felt like maybe the reasons she had gone through what she had was that she could learn to become who she was today, the kind of person who could shoulder other's burdens, empathise with their pain and show up in their sympathy. She was not often...
