Zavien
I'm going to change the world,
Her words rang as he knew them to be true. Cocking his head to the side, his eyes shone with excitement and sympathy. "I know. And your time will come, too." Whether it was as impactful as the defeat of a large foe or as small as gathering flowers, they would assist the cause. His smile brightened and he leaned a little closer in a playful tone. "After all, you're the one and only, compassionate, selfless, wise, incredible, irreplaceable Celestine Caretaker. You are Lena. There is no one like you." His gaze was intense and sincere. Zavien meant every word. Whether she believed it or not, he believed in her.
Her half-hearted laugh may have been quiet, but it still instigated his own as he leaned onto his hands, his head thrown back. When his laugh finally settled around the cavern, Zavien looked back to Lena, humor lighting his face. "Of course. Something has to work eventually. We're much too stubborn for it not to work." Sliding farther into the water, he turned to so that he was directly in front of her, grinning wildly. "In the meantime, we have to enjoy every moment to the fullest. Which means no more sulking and more relaxing! It's much too nice to waste what little time we have here." He winked and sent a little splash her way. Wallowing wouldn't help anyone, but rejuvenating themselves would help keep their spirits high.
