I couldn't utter my love when it counted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
Mouth having gone fully dry, at first Koa can only nod while emotions well inside his throat. "That would be... yeah. Even just hearing..." But then, what would Mahina say? Pride that he's followed her legacy, or disappointment with the man he's become? It's a terrifyingly complicated prospect, and Koa isn't sure he's ready to face it just yet.
Thankfully, he doesn't have to. The train of conversation is utterly derailed by Flora's delight in the Greatwood biome and its inhabitants. Huffing quiet laughter, he watches as she flits from sight to sight, fondness smoothing the edges of his mind.
He maneuvers behind her as she draws near, not wanting to obstruct her views as his arms snake round her waist. "I broke my arm in the Stonesong," Koa chuckles, peering over Flora's shoulder to to where the animals play. "Only time I've been to the Greatwood, actually. I wish I'd spent more time there, it's beautiful."
His cheeks resting on Flora's head, Koa's more than content to let his date take in the scenery. "We can stay here as long as you want. Dinner isn't for another hour."

Koa
And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
