Evie
i'll plant a row of daisy seeds
in the space beneath each eye
in the space beneath each eye
Evie hums thoughtfully, expression pinched as she pauses and looks out over the ice-scattered horizon. "There are some good accounts on the history of Halo in the library, but only a few that are firsthand journals. Maybe we should write more of them..." It feels like Samuel himself is taking hold of her, and it makes her roll her eyes fondly to herself to envision him shy but gleeful somewhere out in the ether.
"I think everyone thinks of their relationship as special," she begs off with a laugh, though she has a lovesick expression like nobody's business going on at the same time. "But it's definitely special in the sense that we're both Wardens too." An additional stressor to any relationship, but one they've yet to have impact their own. Knock on wood and all that, but Evie truly doubts it ever will. They both love Halo in a way that ensures the work they do for it is hardly a burden.
Speaking of that work - Evie drops her last piece of ice into the icebox, and covers it up immediately after so nothing inside will melt, the mist and rainbow disappearing slowly in the air. Turning to Alys, she holds her hand up for a high-five. "Now I'd call that a mission accomplished. Wanna get lunch?" With a grin, she hoists up the cooler and tilts her head back toward the Citadel, satisfied and ready for a reward.
- Fin!

so they'll remind you of your beauty
when they bloom each time you cry
when they bloom each time you cry
