[SE] incendiary and full of light

evie The kind of flawless I wish I could be Evie knows that despite Talyson's grievances being with her, it had impacted Deimos far more from the start. Though her magic had been a closely guarded secret well into adulthood, she hadn't escaped the prejudice entirely by revealing it late, even well after Outlanders had begun to change the local sentiment. She is used to scorn and derision, though she doesn't always have the grace to take it with her tongue between her teeth. Returning to her beloved's side, Evie laughs a little under her breath. "Tolerant, maybe. But I don't mind - it's how we balance each other out." Though Evie would admittedly entertain a peace treaty if Talyson were ever to apologize, so perhaps he's not entirely wrong in calling her forgiving. But even if it came to fruition, there would certainly be no forgetting. Still, there's a touch of warmth to her eyes at the compliment, at his perception of her. Falling into step beside him as they move onward (perhaps a little too swiftly) the Evergreen takes a moment as they aim for the next house to be grateful for a year of blessings delivered in the wake of the war. Even Talyson's bitterness could not erase all the good that had come into her life since leaving her self-imposed exile, and she would never let it. "I actually met his sister recently at a trial run Sah did in the Academy. I'll just pretend the gift is for her even if it's his size," she admits on a snicker, wondering yet again how the two could possibly be related.
