"Rightfully so, the old git" Sunflower laughed, she had heard something about an odd occurrence on the Tower of London quite a while back and it had involved Snape's name and the disappearance of the woman who sat before her.

"Oh no, I didn't want to hurt him, I just couldn't stop myself, I was being controlled or something, I'm not really sure."
Oh yes you do, your damn sueauthor powers went all whacky and now you've lost em and are stuck in a god fucking alley way. Take her offer, get a bath, get some food, seal your fate, you coward.
"Don't you understand?"

Jess hesitated for a second and then took her hand standing up on tired legs "I don't know what good it'll do."

Sunflower lifted the tired woman up on her shoulder and helped her walk out the alley "Now point me in tha di-rection of tha Purple Lilac Inn." [[END SCENE]] ((Continued on to: The Purple Lilac Inn.))

**NEW DAY**
Jess itched her head and stretched as she came upon downtown London, she had been given, well more so forced to take the day off to go shopping. The proprietor of the inn told her that she worked harder than all of her other girls combined and because it was the Christmas season and she was in an even merrier mood than usual, she was throwing a big bonus in her pay and making her go out and buy clothes.
How could Jess refuse?
She buttoned the long pea coat she was wearing and straightened out her skirt as she came upon the window of the first dress shop she saw.

Stark, as it so happened, was sitting in one of the couches provided for the comfort of customers. He was reclined, one arm draped across the back of sofa, one foot tapping impatiently. This time, the ever-present sunglasses were perched on the top of his head.
He also looked incredibly bored.

Jess, not noticing Tony just yet walked in to the shop and started looking around, almost giggling with delight.
They had everything she could have wanted there, and for one reason or another, it wasn't just dresses, although that's what the sign had said. There were denim jeans and t-shirts and some awesome poofy jackets with faux fur that she had worn so much, back in the day.
She smiled a woman who was helping a customer and started going through the racks of jeans. She was going to get out the skirts she wearing as soon as she could.

At first, he didn't notice Jess, blocking her out as just another customer that had wandered in. But her voice was familiar, and it eventually filtered down through the fog of boredom.
He turned in his seat to get a better look. Yep. It was definitely her.
"Well, this is a surprise."

Jess spun around with wide eyes "Shit."

One eyebrow went up at her reaction.
"Wonderful to see you, too."

"I uh-"
Well this was unavoidable.
Jess took a deep breath and smiled "Sorry, I- you probably have no idea what happened or you do, but what does it matter, I mean I guess it doesn't matter, because you were in captivity or, no that's not the right word, you were being held captive, oh but that's probably a sore subject and-" Jess slammed her hand against her mouth and closed her eyes.
"How are you?"

Stark’s expression seemed to be somewhere between amused and taken-aback once the rush of words had stopped. Finally, it settled on amused. She was up to date enough on her news to babble about it a rather endearing way.
“I’m doing pretty good, actually. In fact, haven’t felt better. I heard you had trouble…hope everything is all right?”

"They all think I'm dead" she replied flatly "and that's how it should be" she looked around the shop and sighed.

All sign of amusement vanished, and his expression was a combination of somber and sympathetic.
"I'm sorry to hear that. You sure it should end that way?"
