my whole life is mine, but whoever says so will deprive me,

"You do." However, Amun's tone was not even slightly insistent or curious, merely observational. Smiling faintly, he looked over at Maru, studying the other man's features. "I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours."
With that, the potter's smile broadened, prominently revealing his fangs. "I'm an Ascended. I'm sure you've heard all sorts of stories." The smile slipped away as he tensed slightly for Maru's reaction.
However, at the shared grief the Ascended could hear in the other man's voice, Amun relaxed slightly. He even grew so bold as to lay a hand on Maru's shoulder. "I know. I'm sorry for your losses as well." The potter's hand slipped back into his lap. "And thank you for helping me pass that time." It was truly grateful.
A ghost of his former good cheer passed over his features as he grinned. "Oh so you think I'm handsome?" There was a slightly teasing tone to his voice. "The pleasure is all mine."

by being moved I exert my empire,
making the dreams of night real
