[Well, this is a new username! Meaning this is clearly a new person. His text comes off as mostly curious. Inquisitive as he might be, he hoped this won’t come across as intrusive. ]

Hello there, as I have come to understand…this place is comprised of many people from many worlds.

Call it being curious, but won’t some of you tell me about your home worlds? Do you wish to return to them? It’s quite alright if you don’t wish to answer, call this satisfying my own curiosity.

I look forward to hearing from you!

No, I gathered that this place was not like Living Memory. But I think that you need to be okay with being just a touch more selfish. If they are here and you have the chance to spend time with them…then do it. Enjoy your bonds and relationships with them.

[He gently picks up her hands, squeezing them, cradling them in his own. He would be gentle with her, always and forever. He would also be honest with her.]


Your heart aches for something that has not yet happened, and you cannot dwell on the if or when. Enjoy what you have right now. If you need reminding of that…I am here to give you that gentle nudge that you need. Less gentle if you request it of course.

[ It feels so nice to have him hold her hands like this... she blinks at his words, though, and smiles weakly, falling silent and just enjoying the warmth of his presence. After a few... she finally speaks with a flick of her ears. ]

You always have the right words, don't you? Thank you, my friend.

[ She then lifts an eyebrow- ]

What kinds of things are you imagining, now? I could still rough you up in return if I wanted, you know!

[ Teasing. ]

... but I welcome your actions. Gentle, or rough. Or actions. Seems like you're alright with going hard, anyroad.

[ WINK. ]

[earwiggle]

I-i am not imagining anything! I swear it!

[ His cheeks are as red as his face, unfortunately. He cannot hide that he has a massive crush on her. But he can just simply not say anything about it! Right! ]

I was simply implying that if you needed someone to tell you it was okay to be selfish, I would be the one to do it.

[menphina]

You would, would you? But... I couldn't possibly. Not when you're not being selfish yourself...

[ She's doing a very convincing pretend-worry that he's welcome to take as actual worry because she is a SNEAK. ]

[earwiggle]

I’ve no reason to be selfish, now do I?

[ Maybe he has plenty of reasons, but, he doesn’t really want to get into that. This is about her after all. G’raha doesn’t need to focus on himself right now.]

[menphina]

[ Puffing her cheeks- then reaching out and grabbing his face with both hands and making him do duck lips. ]


Everyone has reason to be selfish and I shan't have someone I love so dearly deny that!

Besides, if you won't be, then I won't, so there.

[earwiggle]

Very well, you win this round. When the time comes, rest assured that I will be selfish.

I would do well to listen to you, hm?

[ He WANTS to be selfish, but he’s just arrived. He can’t so soon.]

[menphina]

That's right! The Radiant Matriarch must be obeyed!


[ And she will bump her forehead against his. ]

... so stay with me. Now and always. Until we can go home... just because we're stuck her doesn't mean we can't make the most of it.
