Well, Isilmë's beauty-sleep had remained very short indeed. Just a few minutes after her falling asleep, there had been a tremendous BANG only a few feet away and she had woken up just in time to see the unintended - but beautiful - fireworks. As if this hadn't been enough, now there was en enormous hole in the ceiling and rain was pouring in!

Isilmë couldn't help but hum to herself quietly "Why does it always rain on me, is it because I lied when I was seventeen?", one of her favorite-tunes by Travis. She also thought she had heard (over all the noice) somebody mentioning "Should I stay or should I go?" by the Clash, but she didn't know who it had been. Well, I hope h/she hasn't decided the latter, she thought to herself, for she would have very much liked to talk to that somebody. Isilmë continued her (off-tune) singing, perhaps secretly hoping that somebody would notice her..er...talent and ask her to join the Saucepan Man- trio. " Even when the sun is shining, I can't avoid the lightning..."
