HARPER
"I try," he grins with a wink tossed her way. "How else will I impress you?" And it still makes him wonder when he takes a step back, how he can possibly feel so comfortable speaking to a literal deity, but her presence alone is like coming home. Familiar and welcoming and more than enough to put him at ease.
She is just as coy and coquettish as he can hope to be, and he laughs and flusters happily beneath the compliment. It's more akin to bar banter and flirting than meeting an immortal being, but he's not one to complain. What's the fun in faith if you're sitting singing hymns about how much you suck and want to be forgiven for existing?
It's that which makes it easier to step into her offered embrace. It is like holding onto a comet's trail - ephemeral at best, fleeting and burning against his palms. Yet still just as warm and all-encompassing as a sun-heated lake, concealing him from this new world that still so confuses him. There is nothing but peace here. "Thank you," he says, voice uncharacteristically weak, trying to project how he's feeling so that she can understand how much he appreciates this singular meeting. Unaware of how badly he needed faith and fealty until the moment she had arrived, far more than a figment of his imagination. Saying goodbye is a necessity, but it's hard nonetheless.
