by the dawn's sweet light

October

let me see you through
'cause i've seen the dark side too.

"I don't think I could have done that with anyone else." Not Dorian and his endless attempts to get her into bed, not Falke and the questions it would no doubt spark about why she'd kept it hidden and what it said about her, not Sera or Ronin. But Finn? Did Tobi believe her secret was infallibly safe with him? No. But that was okay, somehow. What had just happened was okay, somehow.

'Uhhghg, why'd you have to go and say that and ruin it.' Tobi groans playfully, stepping to the side between their tracks that she might knock her shoulder into his. Glancing over her shoulder, she too notices how the Celestine seems to have swallowed up their footsteps. 'With how everything moves around in here, I bet if we walked backward right now, we wouldn't even be at the same enclosure.'

Twitching her lips from side to side, the doctor shrugs. 'Oh, now I'm a mere magical creature?' Tobi wonders, her voice rising with feigned offence as she grins over her shoulder at Finn. 'It would be interesting to know...I wonder if the enclosures could make Outlander worlds.' Shaking her head again (and causing the snow accumulated there to fall to her shoulders), Tobi reaches for her scarf. "Not worried. Moreso...everything was just...so perfect, and then hello Cian." With a grumble, the doctor halts for a moment that she might rebundle herself up with her scarf now that her heartrate as slowed somewhat.

When the night falls on you
& you don't know what to do
Nothing you confess could make me love you less
