your touch brought forth an incandescent glow, tarnished but so grand
Flora lights up the moment Safrin appears, the brightness of her smile immediate and unrestrained as she instinctively leans closer into Kaisel, tucking herself against his side as though the joy in her chest needs somewhere to go. It crackles through her, bright and effervescent, leaving her practically vibrating where she stands, her fingers tightening around his as if that might steady the rush of it. It doesn’t matter that they’re already married, that this is technically something that should have come first; it feels right anyway, gloriously and unmistakably right, and she isn’t about to question it.
"Thank you," she breathes, the words slipping out in a soft, shaky whisper that wobbles with laughter she’s barely holding back, her voice threaded with a kind of delighted disbelief, though the moment doesn’t sit still inside her for long. Her hand lifts almost without thought, cupping Kaisel’s cheek as she turns toward him, drawing him down as she rises onto her toes to meet him halfway. The kiss she presses to his mouth is fierce and full and entirely uncontained, all the bright, overflowing affection she’s been holding spilling into it at once, her smile breaking through even as she kisses him.
"I love you so much," she murmurs against him when she pulls back just enough to speak, the words soft but certain, her grin already running away with her again.
