*Sylvia slipped back into her room after her first session with Doctor Crane. She wasn’t sure how it went exactly. It left her with a lot of questions. She sighed lightly and put her things down on her vanity. Her fingers fell to the lacing of her dress, loosening them so she could slip out of it. She hung it carefully and put on her black silk robe over her corset. Walking back to the vanity, she sat and began brushing her hair.*

*Virginia skipped into the room on a light step, humming cheerily as she bore in a plate of fresh-baked cookies.* "Someone's been busy in the kitchen--and it wasn't me!" *she declared, setting them down and place in a finger over her lips.* "Shh--I stole them." *She sat cross-legged on Sylvia's bed.* "How was your day?"

*Sylvia looked up to Virginia as she came in, a smile warming her face.*
“Oh, Virginia, it’s so lovely to see you.”
*She turned back to her vanity at the question.*
“My day…has been interesting.”
*She lightened again, looking back to her.*
“How was yours? Other than full of larceny? “

"Spent very idly, I'm afraid. All those books in the library--I didn't move for several hours at one point. My leg fell asleep," *she said, mournfully nibbling on a cookie.*

*Sylvia’s smile widened and she stood up. Making her way to the bed, she sat next to Virginia, placing her hand on her leg playfully.*
“Do you need someone to work it out for you?”

*Virginia grinned and cocked her head to one side.* "Well I can feel it now," *she giggled.*

*Sylvia nodded gently, raising her gaze to Virginia’s, her expression becoming less light-hearted. She sighed gently and licked her lip, thinking on what Doctor Crane had said earlier. It was important that she care for others.*
“Virginia…you know that you are very dear to me, right?”

"Of course!" *Virginia reached out and took Sylvia's hand, squeezing it.* "You've been such a good friend."

*She brushed the hair away from Virginia’s face.*
“I’m glad. It is very important to me that you understand. I’ve just…I’m going through some things and I needed you to know. It makes me happy that you already did.”
*Sylvia kissed her cheek softly.*

*Virginia immediately looked concern, with her motherly nature taking over.*
"What is it? Are you alright? Would you like to talk about it? Did someone hurt you? Is there anything I can do?" *she laid a cool hand on Sylvia's brow as though check for a fever.*

*Sylvia smiled warmly, brushing away Virginia’s hand.*
“I’ve just been thinking. I went to see Doctor Crane today. Do you know him? I only ask because he seems to care for your wellbeing.”

*Virginia thought for a moment.* "I spoke to him once...apparently I have some kind of addictive personality disorder, I think he said." *she shrugged.* "I'm not certain what it means."

*Sylvia’s brow furrowed as she thought back to her own sudden addiction, especially for Dr. Crane. That was odd.*
“But he never tried to…do anything inappropriate?”

"Never," *said Virginia, as though the idea were a surprise in itself.* "He seemed a professional and gentlemanly sort."

*Sylvia nodded slightly, smiling once again hastily.*
“Of course. He is very serious about his work. He has recommended that I talk to my friends concerning an issue that has come up, and…well, I am afraid that I do not have many friends here.”
