save your eyes for someone brighter than i will ever be
Perhaps he should have expected the fire behind her exhausted, pained state. But he doesn’t – not in the way that she does it, wiping at her face. “Okay.” He says quietly, drawing silent for a few brief moments, a few heartbeats as he peers between her and the fire and Haai dutifully waiting for something, though the both of them don’t know what.
But he tries to lift her spirits, and he finds that it doesn’t work as she offers her confession, pressing her face into his chest, and Sunjata doesn’t know what to say or do, so he simply sits there and lets her bury her face into his chest, lets his gaze lift to dance between Haai and the fire, letting silence overcome him aside from the quiet. “I know.” That’s uttered.
He’d been there too, multiple times in his life, and perhaps the reason he spirals so intensely is due to the fact that he never truly got a chance to break apart like this. It had always been go, go, go and never anything else, no time to sit and wallow. And when he did get the chance to, he hated himself too much to bear it. So he remains silent, choosing to settle and let her come to terms with it on her own end.

don't hesitate to bring me to my knees
SUNJATA
Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3
Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.
