REXANNA
She returns his greeting with her own bright grin, and a light shrug. “I always make time for friends.” She informs him with a wider smile — because that’s what he was quickly becoming, and she wanted to be sure he wasn’t getting the wrong impression by any of it. After all, he had helped plan her wedding, after all! Still, she settles in beside him as the snow drifts by on a wind she can’t feel, before she rolls her shoulders in another small shrug. “Excited, really. It’ll be a way to paint a happier image over my previous one.” A small admittance, but there nonetheless.
Her attention and body turns fully toward him as he speaks, a brow slightly raised in a silent question as to what he’s learned, waiting for more amazement and awe. But what he tells her makes her pause, and she considers it for a moment, a wide smile on her face. “That’s incredible…” She comments at first, turning her head away from him as she fiddles with the ring on her finger in thought. “I think… I don’t know if I’m ready to part with it yet? Frey took it away for a time and I didn’t realize that I missed it.” She admits, sapphire gaze sliding over toward the Launceleyn.
“It’s a good reminder for me, but I’m sure I’ll grow tired of it eventually again.” She huffs a laugh, clearly touched by the offer and embracing the idea deep within her. “I will think on it though, if the offer still stands?” She winks to him. Part of her finds strength within it, within the reminder. And when it had returned after she Ascended, it had almost been proof that she had lived that way, had experienced those things, that she wasn’t losing her mind. As fucked up as it might seem.
The Penumbra flashes him a clearly grateful grin for it, to show she’s not offended in the least. She loves the gift, the idea of it. She just isn’t quite ready yet to part with it.
