It was in Feralas, bathed there in the green on the stony shore of a jade colored pool that he said it. "I love you."

The words were stuttered and not easily given but they were not said out of pity, nor said for the sake of being said. They were said because they were meant; she could see it on his face. And she'd felt it for longer though she'd ( Read more... )

We dreamed together, for a while. And it was so beautiful. But there's a problem with dreams you see, because eventually you wake up. And you remember that life isn't a dream.

"Damn we had to relocate. Bloody fuck."

"Are you alright?"

She didn't need to hear much beyond the need for relocation. She didn't need to know why, that the ship was damaged, that he was hurt. She already knew.

She knew that as certainly as she had ever known anything.
She should grab her things and she should go and never turn back.

She should be running.

She should be as far from this place and any other place he knew as she could be. She should go where there would never be a chance ( Read more... )

I've been back for a month and a half. I think this is the longest I've ever stayed in one place.

I've found work of a sort.  I've been inducted into the Crimson Circle but not done anything with them yet. I've become a secretary. And I've joined the Argent Resolve.

At least I have vague memories of being with the Crusade to help me out there. I've ( Read more... )
