Isla
one bright morning goes so easy
"That is probably the politest way I've ever heard anyone refer to what used to happen at those masquerades," Isla says though a chuckle, shaking her head in embarrassment at the memory. "Alas, I think all of my dance partners tried to undress me with their eyes at the very least, so I can't have run into you. Unless you were the man who once stepped on my foot three times during a waltz, but that doesn't seem like you either."
Having been about to take one of his curls to thread around her own finger, Isla decides against it if only not to ruin all of Ronin's hard work. Instead, stepping out into her spin, she does indeed have the privilege of watching the Bastion's expression magically shift and change, and it's with a warm peal of laughter that she twirls back against his chest. "Remi," she says slowly, as if to remind him once again, "you are married, and my best friend, and I love you, and nothing will ever change any of those three things."
Doubting it will make a difference and vowing, regardless, to bother the Bastion a lot more often at his houseboat and in general, Isla nods across the dancefloor where a certain aviator in a plum coloured suit is still in attendance. "It's very casual at the moment, but I think I'd like to see where it goes," she whispers.
