THE VALKYRIE
You bring clarity when I can't see past
All the places where I made my mistakes
All the places where I made my mistakes
After years of flourishing touches, garment creation, makeup, painting…decorating and aesthetics don’t bring her the same comfort and control that it does for Sunjata, and it’s a perfect trade-off for the homemaking and caretaking to fall to her hands. It’s empowering, and displays a level of trust that emphasizes the importance of their new beginnings.
As his arms fall down across hers to squeeze back, Hotaru laughs into his back, the shaking of her shoulders vibrating through the both of them. “You can claim it entirely. Flaunt it, even. You’re entirely deserving of the praise.” She would certainly be bragging to anyone lucky enough to visit. Sneaking a hand out from under his, she snags a piece of carrot from the board and cranes around his side to pop it into her mouth (with a little magical help). It grants her the opportunity to peer up at him, smiling. “It’ll take quite a lot of dinners to balance out this level of surprise gift,” she teases, though the softness of her eyes makes it clear she knows he doesn’t expect her to pay him back. Not for something that is shared between them - something entirely theirs.
