And hung from the rafters
The stratagem swings
Hotaru's rather forward words were the first indication to Morgan that she might have a different kind of interest than the purely academic, and she paused, a soft smile playing on her lips that would seem almost out of character for the Captain. Soon enough she recovered her usual more confident expression and gave Hotaru a sideways glance. "The mountains have a lot of secret hideaways."
The next thing Hotaru said took it from an indication to a certainty and Morgan laughed uncomfortably, though didn't tell Hotaru to stop: just looked over the mountains with her lips pressed together, as if stopping herself from saying something that might make the situation all the more embarrassing. She had been involved in many a conquest, but very few of the romantic kind: to be suddenly presented with the chance on the edge of a mountain was one of the possibilities she had not prepared for.
The atmosphere grew much more sombre as Hotaru began to speak of the war in her old home and Morgan found herself able to turn to look at the woman again. The tale that was given made Morgan widen her eyes in shock and no small amount of fear, recognising as Hotaru did the parallels with the Voice, the thought of which made her mouth dry. "...I am sorry. I..." Morgan shook her head and looked down to the Citadel, let out a heavy sigh. "I believe we must be careful the same does not occur here. I will not let you lose a new home." Her hand tightened into a fist at her side, new determination in her.
