sometimes we break so beautiful and you know you're not the only one
i breathe you in so sweet and powerful
She nods to Bastien’s musings, wondering if perhaps that it took more than just a wave of Safrin’s hand to make it happen. She’d never met the goddess, had tried to once with Deimos, but that was long ago – before she was Ascended, before things for her had changed. Before Ronin had returned. “I’m not sure I understand them either.” She offers, giving him a small half smile as she looks up to meet his ochre gaze with her own greens.
The shake of his head, however, has her gaze lingering on the strong panes of his face when he speaks next. The mention of Remi, the mention of what it could do to someone. “I think… The circumstances are different.” She frowns, looking out over the fields as well, tilting her head as she contemplates it. “There’s a difference I think from what happened to me and what happened there. Perhaps it wasn’t as hard for me because he was born and already gone? I can’t imagine… To have seen them breathe and grow and become something – to watch learn how to walk, and then suddenly they’re gone.” She frowns, gaze drifting back to Bastien as she reaches for him to hug and hold onto tightly, far clingier than normal because of the topic.
“That and… Well, Aoife was the piece of Ronin that Remi had after Ronin died. And now that’s gone too.” She sighs, completely unnecessary, frowning.
