No trembler in the world's storm-tossed sphere

From http://community.livejournal.com/comment_fic (this is not my ship, but whatever. At least now I can say I posted fic in 2011.)( He dreams of the day )

Title: The Edge of Possibilities: Discovery
Prompt: 64) I have noticed that as soon as you have soldiers the story is called history. Before their arrival it is called myth, folktale, legend, fairy tale, oral poetry, ethnography. After the soldiers arrive, it is called history. -- Paula Gunn Allen (1939-2008), Laguna Pueblo/Sioux/Lebanese/Scottish-American novelist, poet, biographer, academic, literary critic and activist.
Summary: Maura takes a risk and learns something she doesn't like.

Mrs Sonderbye, when he's late with the rent, asks Horatio if he "couldn't sell that book." He replies that no, it's his art, all he has. She scoffs at him. He pities her for not understanding. What's it like, he wonders, to be a person who hears no music and loves no plays? How is it possible not to appreciate the beauty of a colorful sunset or a sweetly sung song? How can one hear "in fair Verona, where we lay our scene" and feel nothing? He wouldn't - couldn't - switch souls with one like his landlady, not for any riches.

Elizabeth and Cecily, after Felicity’s rejection, went to Martha. Martha, having never been welcome to them before, was willing to console the pair.

“I simply don’t see,” said Cecily, “why Fee and Pippa would desert us for a new girl from India and a future governess.”

“Pay no attention to them,” said Martha. “If they can’t see your worth, they are not worthy of you.”

This compliment cheered the girls up. After that, they were Martha’s. She, who had never been accepted into Pippa and Felicity’s circle, was now the leader of her own. Seldom had she been so content.
