[ the way my heart skipped a beat reading this… wtf…

But Elysium isn't really paying attention to her reaction; he avoids her gaze as he showcases it. The Originium crystals on his body could catch as many objective compliments as it could, yet it still wouldn't erase all the negative connotations and baggage it's associated with. Easier, then, is to dress it up with superfluous words and think nothing of it in the first place.

(Roland voice) This is this, that is that. ]

We only get one life to make the most of it. [ a beat. a turn of his expression into something more wistful. ] I don't think it's wrong to want to know just how far my wings can take me.

But until then——there are things I need to do before I can. So, yeah, I guess you're right.

[ In the way his 'forever' has already been cut short, but that's fine. It won't stop him from dreaming. Given they're getting awfully close to a complex he hasn't spoken to anyone, ever, he keys up the smile and offers her a wave. ]

Thanks for the talk, Ishmael. [ damn, the 'miss' only lasted for like half a month. ] It's high time to get you going on your way. Here's to our journey together going more smoothly from this point on, yeah? I promise not to give you too much more trouble.

[ off she goes—— ]

[wheft]

[ sorry ly if this looks het to the viewers

but wtf, he's cutting it off here now? the frown makes a comeback, though this time it's a lot less heated than her usual ones. he's getting flustery at her overstaying her welcome here, she gets it. ]

Somehow I reaaaally doubt that.

[ she knows your type, elysium!!! guys like him will never stop being annoying. but ishmael must be getting softer these days because normally she wouldn't tolerate that kind of behavior. that's just the kind of guy he is.

that's that and this is this, indeed. ]

Fine, I'm going. But it's going to take more than that to get you off the hook, you know.

[ in other words, she's still going to be a hater :/ but she can't really stay too mad at him forever. he's probably the only one who understands her wanderlust around here, after all.

and with that, she goes. see you on the flipside, weirdo ]
