REXANNA
for a time it seemed to me that we were
starlight-touched
The minute the question comes from Rexanna’s lips, she’s hesitant. She can feel the hesitation from the other party as she waits (though she mentally prepares herself to leave) before Wessex agrees. At least, agrees in a way that seems entirely like her. She says she can join if she keeps up without killing the Ascended woman, and she smirks slightly toward the blond woman with a nod. “Deal.” She says briefly. “I can’t see as well as you can, for obvious reasons, but I can see you well enough to not shoot at you.” She acknowledges with a quiet huff of humor.
She does appreciate the idea that while Wessex isn’t directly helping her, it will help her for the future. She didn’t know when she’d need to learn it, but it couldn’t hurt if she ever found herself in need of protecting herself without her magic. Especially if she takes Bastien up on his offer – if the Voice makes it possible to Ascend her – she’ll need any extra bit of help she can get. And so she looks to Wessex as she pulls her hair back, a soft smile playing on the corners of her lips.
“Show me how it’s done and I’ll see if I can keep up.” She offers, remaining back and eyeing the targets and what Wessex decides to do in that moment.

failing to realize we were actually
starcrossed
