Twenty Eighth Entry ☼ Elizabeth ☼ The frozen spring [Accidental Video]

[In truth, Elizabeth was somewhat disappointed to be back at the Manor. She'd wanted to visit New York for a while after hearing about it from Ichabod, and she could have very easily spent another week there. But, that being said, it was quite nice to go back to what she was used to - something familiar.

The blackberry feed just shows Elizabeth sat in one of the window seats of her room, the colour of her gown a soft contrast to the red of her hair and the pure white outside. Occassionally, she looks up from her book, and watches the thick snowflakes float effortlessly past the window pane.]

[Ichabod was wearing his customary black but instead of the rough material that he normally wore, his jacket and vest was made of velvet with silver embroidery of leaves and bells going down the front of his coat. In his hands, he had two mugs of hot cocoa.]

May I come in?

[Elizabeth closes her book and goes to the door, opening it and smiling when she see's Ichabod]

Of course

[His eyes widened and a warm smile came to him.]

You....look lovely. How is it that I have never seen you in that dress before today?

[Entering the room, he turns to face Elizabeth and straightens his back in a very proud manner to match Elizabeth's regal presence.]

My apologies that we could not find my previous residence. It was....nostalgic yet overwhelming that time had taken hold and I felt simply erased. Not that I mind now that I know I have no ties in the real world either.

[Her smile only widens when he compliments her, as she takes one of the mugs from his hands]

Thank you very much; I almost have too many dresses to my name, so it's not surprising there are some you haven't seen yet.

[She then offers him a seat as she takes one herself]

It's unfortunate..I would have liked to see where you used to live; but I'm glad I got to see New York at least

[His brow furrows and nods.]

Yes, I would have liked you to see it. I had so hoped that you could see what I have seen from my loft. [A smile returns at a memory.] Every morning was something new. I found my cardinal when he flew in my window and...I remember with fondness how he was grateful for the bread I had for him. Later I would bring him worms and seeds in the spring.

Aren't the snowflakes wonderful?

[Looking up at the voice, Elizabeth leans forward and picks up the blackberry. She didn't recognise the young lady on the screen, but she smiles politely at her either way]

Yes, very much so.

What is your name?

Giselle.

They are dancing in the air as they gently fall to the floor. It's sad to know they don't live for very long.

Excuse my interruption, but I do believe that you have left this device on.

[Turning her attention from her book, Elizabeth reaches forward and picks up her blackberry]

Ah, so I did - thank you for bring it to my attention

[Smile]

What is your name?

[she gives a polite curtsy]

I am Lady Elizabeth Middleford. You are?

[A polite nod in acknowledgment]

Queen Elizabeth Tudor - it's a pleasure, Mistress Middleford

[omg, the dead queen of England? @-@ )

Queen Elizabeth of England?

(aww struck here)

[A smile and another nod]

The very same.

[sparkly eyes~]

My lady [a bow fitting that of one you would give a queen] This is such an honor.

What a beautiful dress!

[Elizabeth looks up at the blackberry, unaware it was on. But, she loves a compliment, and smiles warmly at the woman on the screen]

Thank you very much

With the snow falling outside, you're almost like a picture -- ah, I'm sorry! That probably sounds really weird ...

I'm Mouri Ran.
