Fall on me with open arms. Fall on me from where you are
Laughing quietly with relief at the approval, and the oh so gallant affection, Seren sealed the deal with a firm nod. Done, then. Wariness it was. Caution to be held tight, not thrown to the winds. And she listened with interest to the reply, again surprised that Ronin's wishes were so simple. "I want those things too," she said, blowing away a tendril of hair as it tried to settle over the lips. "Probably I'm too impatient... I see all these places and things I want to do, and don't take the time to think anything through before leaping in. So when it goes wrong, it explodes in my face."
She wanted to be like a spinning top expertly unleashed; steady and fairly humming with velocity, balanced perfectly while spinning impassionately. The kind of force that repelled anything standing in its way, that could seemingly go on forever without stopping. Instead, all Seren did was wobble frantically. Crashing into things, stumbling about without grace. Seren told her father as much, and asked, "How can I become like that? And," she had to laugh, "do you think the dragon will make it better or worse?" Someone who would enable her... It could be the best thing, or chaos waiting to unfold.
Seeing the spray of water, excitement sprung to life in her eyes, and Seren reached into the pocket dimension. Rummaging hastily for the frosted over shell, so she would have it ready. "That one?" she suggested, leaving it to Ronin to guide them safely closer.
