Heh. If he had invited you some time before this, he'd have been too shy to do anything like that. Being wed has opened him up more.
[ She is so fond, and proud of Aymeric for chasing his desires safely. She wants him to be loved and cherished so much.
G'raha gets a return sniff, though, and a little kiss as she nuzzles his nose. ]
He does... and he will. 'Tis what makes reunions all that sweeter.
[ Her gaze softens. ]
Try as I might, though... what happened to Wuk Lamat and Koana... they're being so brave, because they have no time to mourn. I wish we could do something more for them.
[ She gets it too. She experienced this as a child. ]
So please... we have to find answers. No one should be left feeling like they could have avoided something out of their hands.

[He huffs softly. Kissing her cheeks, her forehead. He admires her so much. He loves her so much. She is so strong.
Her heart is big too, it always has been. He would make sure whoever hurt her would get double from him. ]
We’re going to do everything we can, I know we will. Innocent lives are on the line, and you know we won’t stand for anyone else being hurt.
[ He squeezes her hands. ]
Do you want to go look for Erenville?

[ She appreciates the comfort so much- the touches, the kisses- they mean a lot to her as a creature aligned to touch.
She returns each kiss lovingly, nestled against him and gives him a squeeze. ]
I will... though I think he's with Wuk Lamat right now. Helping...
[ She nudges G'raha's cheek with her face. ]
I love you, you know that, aye? And I've a feeling you'll adore him too, once you get to know him as well.
My apologies, I shouldn’t trouble you with myself like this.
[He leans into her hand. Sighing. He’s not going to push her away though, his body language is enough to tell that. ]
[He leans into her hand. Sighing. He’s not going to push her away though, his body language is enough to tell that. ]
[ He obliges the request. Slipping his jacket off and putting it aside.
He’s honestly amazed that she is caring over him this much. It’s nice to not worry about yourself for a change.]
Truly, I am not troubling you?

Truly, I am not troubling you?
If you were, you wouldn't be here, aye?
[ She is very unwilling to be around anyone she finds troubling. But she brings a steaming bowl of the infused water down and a towel, setting it on the ground and she'll carefully work on wiping his face gently first. ]
You've had a long, long period of time to worry... and learn things. 'Tis time to return and focus on yourself and your needs for a spell and regroup with yourself, aye?

Right, right.
[He allows her to wipe his face. Has it truly been so long since he’s wiped his face? They’ve been going nonstop for the last stretch of days.
He looks to her, and maybe he can let his shoulders down.]
Tell me, how do you keep going forward when everything is so difficult?

I'd like to know myself.
[ Her movements are gentle and slow, carefully wiping and very lightly massaging. It's to ease the stress and improve his circulation. The fragrance should also help. ]
But I suppose it just happens after facing so many shocking things from a young age... eventually, you just have to pick yourself back up to get things done.
You can't let the weight of your troubles crush you.. that's just letting the troubles win.

I love you, too. I love you so very much.
[ He loves being nestled in with her. She's comforting. He's glad that he, too, can be a source of comfort.
He nudges her face back gentle and loving. ]
I will undoubtably appreciate him as much as you do, my love. It's just an unfortunate time. We haven't all had time to sit down and talk proper.

I suppose you are right, but what if I can't fathom why something would be the way it is? I... found out something rather troubling while we were in Solution 9. do you remember when people would forget those who passed? I saw a few people from my village.
... none of them remembered her.
[ His chest has been hurting since then, and since they heard what Sphene said to them. Was his mother truly gone? He's been fighting back emotions for a while now. He's been fighting so hard to keep it all wrapped up. ]
That's what I needed to talk to you about.
[ His eyes are closed now, allowing her to continue cleaning him up. The fragrance very soothing. ]

[ She nods, just purring quietly against him as he speaks- and sighs. ]
You're here now. Let's do our best to see this to the end, and we'll find the time for us... Would you like to walk back together?
[ Though she isn't moving right away. No one's called, they still have time.
She's just glad he's here, and relieved for it. ]

Aye...
[ She stills, frowning as she listens to him and her ears droop as it confirms what she'd already been thinking. ]
Then, Cahciua is...
[ Dead. And died a long while back, it seems like. However that happened. She gently wipes down the side of his neck and touches the opposite side. ]
... I'm sorry, Erenville. I know 'tis probably hollow sounding, but I do know exactly what you're going through right now.
I felt the same way when mine own parents passed out of nowhere. But... unlike these... that was it. I hadn't the chance to talk to them ever again. To say goodbye.
With Cahciua as an Endless... 'tis more than likely you'll at least be able to be with her until 'tis time to not be. It won't be easy, but... know you aren't alone should it come down to it.
[ She's not going to coddle that much- but she is still trying to be a comfort. He's still in pain and shock, and this is the most she can do. ]

My mother is likely passed, an Endless.
[ his chest hurts to say that. He didn't know she was passed, didn't know for how long. It hurts. But Megumi is soothing him greatly right now. Talking about it with her is somehow easier. Somehow. ]
I appreciate it. I will be okay.
[ He won't be, but, he can admit it later. ]
I'm sorry you did not get to say goodbye. I know if it is what we think it is...at least I will have a chance. But I cannot let her go without answers.

We still have a little while, yes? Let me spoil you for a moment while we rest.
[ By spoil, he means tilting her head up so their lips can meet.
They haven’t had a good, proper kiss since he arrived. It could help them blow off a little bit of the restlessness too. ]

[ It's painful, especially since he wasn't there- for three years, he spent time away from his people, expecting to see them. They were supposed to meet them.
Only to be met with time distortion of thirty years like this- and losses. So many, many losses.
(And she knows he won't be okay. He will, but not right away.)
She watches him, setting the towel down for a moment and takes his head in her hands. ]
And you shouldn't. For now, though... take your top off so I can wash the rest? You're so tense right now, 'tis going to make me ache.
[ A weak smile. He asked for a distraction, and there's no point rehashing the obvious. They know what must be done, and like she walked the end, he too will see this through.
She won't let him be alone during it, though. ]

[ She is more than happy to be "spoiled" like this- and when he does, she all too happily lifts her arms around his neck to pull him close, kissing him fully and intensely.
Everything hurts- all of this, for the people here, for Erenville. But she needs this, if just for a little bit- to give her a little selfish boost for why she's working so hard.
G'raha is a wonderful mate, and she'll have to write to Aymeric once she calls him on linkpearl- Estinien will be wandering around, too. But for now?
She returns the kiss intimately, lovingly, comforted in the familiarity of his mouth and body, his scent- and threads her fingers in his hair to keep them close until she pulls back just enough to whisper- ]
Keep that up and a kiss isn't where this spoiling will stop, my love.

[ Honestly he’s still wrapping his head around it. He doesn’t know if he would have been able to to fully comprehend it had he not been as sharp as he is.
It doesn’t make it any easier.
He leans his head into her hands a moment, letting her take all of his worries into her gentle grip. Though their relationship is still new, Erenville finds himself falling for her.]
Mm…
[He quietly slips his shirt and jacket off, putting them aside. ]

[Reaching up to touch her cheek. Blinking.
Did he do something strange?]
Are you alright?

So you’ve tried to tell me before.
[ You know what, actually. Fuck it. He’s been staring at her lips for the last however long anyways.
He’s going to pull her down to kiss her!]
[ You know what, actually. Fuck it. He’s been staring at her lips for the last however long anyways.

[ WAH. She looks a bit surprised, but rather than resist, she moves her arms around his shoulders to return the kiss and slide herself onto his lap without thinking much on it.
Maybe it's stress relief for her, and if he wants some relief like this- it's always effective! She's not going to fight it. When she does break the kiss briefly, she murmurs against his mouth- ]
... are you sure?
[ Does he really want a distraction like this? ]

I’m sure.
[ Even if they didn’t go all the way. He doesn’t mind being distracted by her like this.
He wants the distraction, needs the relief. He’s so pent up in more ways than one. ]
If I didn’t want it, or wasn’t sure, I would have said no already.
[ Putting his arms around her waist. ]
