“Never too late to celebrate it.” He rumbles with a bright laugh aimed Adam’s way. “You could probably celebrate your thirtieth birthday every year and nobody would be none the wiser.” This is both a truth and a joke aimed at Adam at the fact that he’d Ascended. Regardless, however, he informs his friend of the Ascended room in the Grounds, an easy nod given in response. It’d certainly get its use with all the new Ascended, he’s sure. And why keep such a wonderful thing a secret to himself?
But all those fun and games falter as the information hits him next, something he didn’t know, hadn’t figured out, hadn’t been told. And it made sense, perhaps, why Nate had been so against the idea of forever and after, though it doesn’t help the pit in his stomach. The pit that yawns open at the idea that they could be together as long as they liked while they lived, but the minute death separated them… It would separate them permanently.
It’s just as upsetting, Sunjata drawing silent as Adam comes to a stop and Sunjata can feel the wind of the evening brush through them, trying to focus on that rather than the information that the Ascended gives him, mulling it over and chewing on the inside of his cheek. “No… I wasn’t aware of it.” He rumbles quietly, shaking his head and filtering it away for later, to talk to Nate about at some point.
And in an effort to try and push away the gaping hole that yawns through him, he begins to step toward the beach again, toward those islands for a distraction. “Anyway… The islands.” He gestures with a hand out toward the dark dots in the distance, a quick swim away should Adam wish to investigate them more fully.

SUNJATA
Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3
Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.
