Psychic thoughts; audible to network

[ A transmission error, static, or otherwise-- can be heard, before whispers surround the network in the form of soft buzzing and humming become obvious and then are sharply cut off with the sound of something like a gleam of glass and a shatter. If players want, even their non-psychic characters will hear this

[1/??]

[incendious]

[ That's--! ]

[incendious]

[ There's no mistaking it. ]

[Done]

[incendious]

[ Have a very sudden burst of warmth, certainly not presented as a challenge this time, closer to an elemental expression of (for want of a better word) squee before a clumsy mass of emotions that are so very mixed up that the chances of them being pulled apart into anything that even vaguely make sense are slim to none. That's all sent in Keith's general direction while he's trying desperately to physically locate him.]

[ 1/2 ]

[glacialis]

[ His eyes widen when he feels the warmth and strength of the emotions coming at him, and he pauses where he's hovering, hands flying to the side of his head.

After being at home, such positivity is almost frightening and welcome all at once and he clamps his eyes shut ]

Th-This is...!

[glacialis]

( !! It's Burn!! You're still here!

Not dead... not dead. )

Burn!!

[incendious]

[ And out of nowhere it seems, he flies not only over, but effectively right into Keith, arms wrapped tightly around his middle as the impact sends them off in a clumsy spinning motion. He keeps firm hold of Keith, however, making sure he wasn't hurt and that they didn't crash into anything no matter how excited he may have been then. ]

Keith! You're here! You're really here! You came back!

[glacialis]

W-WOAH!

[ He doesn't expect the sudden attack, nor the way they go spinning. In the way that it does, he manages to spin around, arms around Burn's shoulders and neck, eyes wide in shock as he tries to stop where he is ]

You're making me dizzy, you oaf!!

[ But before he can stop himself, he has his face buried in the side of Burn's neck, holding him tightly and desperately ]

I knew if I came back... you'd be here... Burn!

[incendious]

[ The comment doesn't phase him the slightest. He's a genuine ball of happiness as he moves a hand instantly to the back of Keith's head, holding him close against him and ducking his own head down to hide his face against his neck. Burn really can't deny just how glad he is to see Keith, and not a moment too soon. ]

Of course! I was waiting for you, damn it!

[ And he tightens his hold ever so slightly, sighing as he does so. ]

[glacialis]

[ His eyes are wet as he holds him, it's like this every time. The moment they get too close, they're drawn away again and it's been like a painful tease every time. ]

You were gone... just like you had been before we came here.

[ Clutching him tightly, he continues ]

If we want to stay together at all, then we have to leave together, or I'll keep seeing you die, Burn...
