Are you death or paradise?
Are you death or paradise?
Asta was right. Thal needed to turn to her friends right now; she needed to rely on them to help put the broken pieces back together, to help relight the fire that had always seemed unwavering in her chest. It's why when she'd planned to continue with her quest, she reached out to one of her closest 'friends' through the last few years, one of the only other people who might truly understand what she was going through.
She tapped at the wood of The Marauder's railing as the crew gave her a wide, cautious berth as they prepared for the storm ahead; they'd seen the extremes of her emotions in the last few weeks (including unnecessary wrath to conceal all the things they didn't see) and had no desire to find out what kind of mood she was in, which turned out to be surprisingly somber. When she looked away from the lightning storm on the horizon, she scanned Tal, a small furrow on her brows. "How are you feeling? Now that... they're gone." It was hard to get out, the sensation feeling like nails on a chalkboard, scraping at the hollowness that had once been so full of purple direction and guidance, but she needed to know, to see if she was the only one who felt this pain.

Now you'll never see me cry
There's just no time to die
There's just no time to die
