Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

[As soon as she closes the door, he'll kick off his boots before stepping further inside.]

I'm graduating.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

Oh, and what of Nero?

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

He's going too.

We got the news together, actually.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

That's wonderful! I am glad that you two will be together. What course have you decided? You are not planning to remain, are you?

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

[he sighs, and runs a hand through his hair.]

Nah, we’re going back to his place. Turns out, not having holes in my memory didn’t make it worth leaving him behind.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

Then, it has come out splendid, hasn't it? Still, you seem troubled.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

Leaving behind my brother hits wrong.

And some of it's just gettin' used to not being an amnesiac anymore.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[oh, yes, talon, oops]

He has Wild City. They will look after him.

I could not imagine . . . But I assume some of your memories have been unkind.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

Unkind's a good word, but it's better than living through them again.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[not going to wait for him to agree to it, just hugging him]

I am glad for your release, and I will look after Talon.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

[it feels a little awkward, and he freezes for a moment, before hooking an arm to place against her back, briefly.]

... I appreciate it.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[staying close even when she separates, holding onto his forearms]

He would hope that you are released as much as I do. Together, we may ease your discomfort.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

Y'know what's eased my discomfort, Glace? Not having holes in my head, and not going back to Gotham, for once in my life. I'll take it.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[nods]

Then, hold onto that. Talon may soon follow you as well.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

I hope.

... You gonna be alright?

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[aha...]

You will be dearly missed, but I also could not have asked for more for you. There is pep! and Noctis. I will be well looked after.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

Well, good to know, no last minute disappointments on the way out the door.

[though he will step a little closer to her]

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[glancing down between them at that then back up]

You could not. At least, not with considerable effort. Do you know when? Wednesday was uncertain when her time would come.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

[he shakes his head]

They didn't make it clear. So, who knows how long I've got left? Never really kept track of all the graduations before.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

I am sad to admit the same. There will still be the chance to see each other one more time though, I am certain.

Do you have a great deal to see to?

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

Nah, just a couple of closing of threads with BAD END, and FiN. I didn't keep that many people close.

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[squeezing his arm]

You kept enough close. There is not as much to do if some of those important to you are leaving as well.

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

Yeah, I guess it works out that way.

[he considers for a moment, and then leans in to steal one last kiss]

Re: 359 sometime

[tenebraecious]

[starts then relaxes into it after a bit, pressing upwards, chaste but lingering]

Re: 359 sometime

[mind_blown]

[he lifts his hand to her chin for a slight adjustment in the tilt of her lips, before pulling away.]

Gonna miss you.
