love you dead

Sohalia

Don't try to wake me up
Even if the sun really does come out tomorrow

Jude declined to share details, and Soh was immediately ashamed of herself for even asking. Of course, if this was the course he had chosen to take, these were feelings that bothered him deeply, and they weren't close enough anymore for her to have any say in the matter - even if a part of her felt like this was some sort of easy way out of dealing with hard feelings. Weren't such things just a part of life and living?

But maybe she was being too judgmental, and she hardly had any right to be. So all she said was, "I'm sorry. I'm not trying to make this more difficult for you." Anani nudged Soh's cheek with her head, and the Luminary reached up to offer more chin scratches. The little cloud wyrm was obviously in tune with Soh's tumultuous feelings, but rather than taking any frustration out on Jude, she focused instead on soothing her bonded.

When Soh felt more settled, she glanced sidelong at Jude. "Do you have, like, scissors or something? You said a lock of hair would work, right? I didn't... bring anything with me, so..." So if he didn't have anything, this was about to be a very awkward trek to find something with which to cut a lock of hair. Even if a part of her rebelled against the idea thoroughly - a part of her that she shoved forcefully aside. After everything that had happened, if this was what Jude wanted - needed - to move on, then so be it.

Don't believe anything you say anymore
In the morn, in the morning
