You are not alone
Sticky footfalls crept closer until she could feel a presence near her. Thal didn't immediately raise her eyes, watching intently as the flower continued to wrinkle and dull until it was nothing more than a dried echo of a smolder blossom. Twisting it in her fingers, the fragile petals cracked and fell slowly from the stem to the reddened ground.
Only then did she lift her gaze, finding a face that was vaguely familiar, the context momentarily eluding her. That didn't stop the fanged grin, the mischievous glint in her blue eyes unmistakable. "You're not wrong." Although it made her wonder what she might have done to prove that point to him, which impulsive situation he'd have witnessed.
Her head tilted, veiling the lack of recognition as she took in his form. The blonde hair and striking blue eyes narrowed down at her began to stir something; shouting and chaos and Void-filled anger that she hadn't thought of in some time. It was another memory she'd suppressed, a point in her infection when she'd been so infatuated that she'd have taken on the entirety of Caido to keep Pierce safe. It wasn't her proudest moment, but she didn't let it show beyond the smallest flicker of unease behind her eyes, disguised by the saccharin sweet smile on her lips. "I don't think I got a chance to repay you for the boot to my face."
