[After the events of the previous week, the mature thing to do would have been to would have been to take the awkward stares and deliver his humble apologies like a man. Yet after spending a week steeped in the most negative emotions he'd indulged in even the darkest of fantasies, it was easier to keep to himself ( Read more... )

[Rosa had been very... well, blank, as of late, considering what had happened. She had mostly stayed in her room, but today, the woman had decided to go out and wander for a bit.

It was a bit too hot for her liking, but that was an afterthought at the sound of the river. The river meant it would be cool! So, Rosa went off toward the river, kicking off her shoes as she went along, as to wade in the water (what Rydia DIDN'T do). She traveled along for a bit in the water, occasionally slipping on smooth rocks (but not falling completely into the water) before she came upon someone on the riverbank.

Slowly, Rosa made her way toward the figure, and before she knew it, she was close enough to see who it was: her husband. Of course she knew that he was no longer mad with jealousy, nor would he attack her, but it was still almost painful to see him.

...but she couldn't ignore the fact that he was hurt. Not now, and not ever. So, she focused a small Cure spell on him, at least for the moment. Rosa let her gaze linger on him for a moment, before she began on her way again.]

[Cecil was too busy wallowing in his concerns to take great notice of Rosa's presence. Until, of course, there was less ambient pain to indulge said wallowing. Puzzled, he checked his surroundings for an extra, unannounced person. He frowned softly as he was met with the physical manifestation of his angst. Hey there wifey. Sorry about the whole calling you a slut thing.]

R--rosa.

[Oh. He was speaking to her. Rosa paused in her steps to glance back at Cecil.]

...Cecil.

Sit with me? [Though he'd come here partly to get away from interacting with Rosa, it would have needed to happen anyway. Better sooner than later, he supposed.]

[action] holyblade July 3 2009, 06:41:31 UTC

All right. [He was safe to do so with now; there would be no pinning her to the ground, and she wouldn't have to use Hold on him once more. So, slowly, she makes her way toward him, and once near, sits down with him.

Still, there's lots of happy funtime awkward silence!]

Thank you. [It seemed like the best place to start.] I've assumed I owe my continued breathing to you. And.. [He continued after a sigh] I also. I cannot begin to apologize for all I've done.

[action] holyblade July 3 2009, 07:18:46 UTC

You would. You looked like you were still in pain, so... that is why I healed you. That and because you are my husband, I do not wish to see you in such pain.

[Pauses and looks to him.] You... you never spoke to me like that, even when you were still a Dark Knight. Is that what they truly become...?

[Above her beauty, devotion, and talents, it was her compassion that Cecil would reference when asked why he'd fallen in love with Rosa. He couldn't help the small smile that came to him upon hearing her speak so tenderly.] You honor me with your words.

[The mention of Dark Knights sends his smile running for the hills, though.] No. At least, none of my acquaintances behaved in such a manner. I can't fully explain what came over me... I suppose I've oftentimes wondered what would have become of me if I hadn't left Baron when I did, if I'd continued to walk the path of pillaging and wrongdoing. I suppose that is the reputation of the Dark Knight. [He reached for her hands, cupping them softly.] I'm so very sorry, Rosa.

[action] holyblade July 3 2009, 08:19:51 UTC

I would never betray you. Not like that. I don't think I could bring myself to do such a thing. [At his action of placing his hands over her own, she looks to them before looking at Cecil.] It wouldn't be right to just not forgive you. It was not your intention to hurt me in any way, and I know that.

[Still, it's quiet when she speaks next:] I forgive you, Cecil.

Re: [action] lunarborn July 3 2009, 13:48:24 UTC

I know you wouldn't. I would never suspect you of something so foolish. [Though he hadn't earned, nor did he deserve her forgiveness, hers was the one he greedily hungered for most. He hugged her, resting his forehead upon hers.] I... [He faltered, lacking the words to express the jumble of emotions weighing upon him.] Bless you, Rosa.

[action] holyblade July 4 2009, 07:13:33 UTC

[Of course he wouldn't. This Cecil, the one she knew and loved, would trust her. It made her smile a little, even! His faltering was sort of adorable.] I love you as well, Cecil. [...well, assuming that's what he was trying to say.]

[Lovely, kind, and psychic. Rosa was the best wife ever. Spared from the messiness of having to express himself verbally, he simply held her close to him and kissed her, letting his body speak the words over which he stumbled.]

[action] holyblade July 4 2009, 07:42:46 UTC

[This was better than him calling her terrible names, or doing even worse things to her. It didn't take her long to put her arms around him in return, as well as return his kiss to her. Definitely better than before.]
