Ianto
Ianto smiled wryly, shrugging his shoulders. "My freedom," he said softly. "I thought it was worth it, yes, until people I knew began to show up. Now, not so much..." He sighed, beginning to stroll along again though his footsteps were lazy, leisurely. He shot her a warm smile at her apology, though he waved a hand as if to tell her there was no need. She had been through a lot herself since coming here.
"I arrived at the beginning of LeafChange, last year," he explained, his brow furrowing. "From some of the people I've met - the people called Outlanders - it seems like a lot of us fell into the barrier at that time." And whilst Roana and Remi had tried to explain to him, probably a bunch of times, he still didn't really get it.
"None of our size since I got here. And certainly none of these wonderful creatures." Grinning, flashing a golden tooth, he cooed over Jyoti as she drew closer to inspect him. "I imagine your starry companion was one of the reasons you didn't stay in the pit?"
Ianto paused beside the riverbank, grinning at the sight of two Fae children waving a basket at the golden light bouncing off the water. "Traditions are a very good start," he agreed. "For instance, look there - those Fae are capturing the sun. It's a LongHeat thing, I've been told."
