Hotaru
we're not lovers, we're just strangers
with the same damn hunger
with the same damn hunger
For all his weathered exterior, there is something pure and boyish in this man, and it charms her far too easily. Finding she'd be more willing to forsake information if it meant keeping that smile on his face. Blasphemous, really, to a woman such as she. But alas, she has always been weak for rugged exteriors hiding golden hearts.
"I can't say I'm the type to avoid battle, but they seem a nasty enough opponent to make me glad we chose retreat." Hotaru is aware he, like many others before him, might consider her frail. Weak, breakable. She is so used to applying this in a beneficial way as an underdog that it no longer truly stings. But she would happily continue to prove everyone wrong all the same. He may not let her assist with the seal, but she's confident she could bring him to his knees if the situation warranted it.
"I'd like to. Admittedly though aside from the shop I am setting up, I have nowhere to stay long term. I'll likely return to the Grounds during Deepfrost at the very least." The woman is experienced with winter's effect on a land such as this, and doubts she will even be able to return considering the substantial hike from the portal to any kind of civilization. "And you? You live here, but I'd the idea of a vacation for the season tempting?" Now that the portals are open, would be be inclined to run away to Torchline for a beach getaway during Deepfrost? Or would duty keep him rooted in Halo?

to be touched, to be loved
to feel anything at all
to feel anything at all
