Star-Crossed Lovers Reunited

[00:12] Making his rounds across Agartha, a blonde man in black work clothes would approach the ruins of Deseti, seeking to rest his feet in the cool waters and take a load off.

However, he spies a winged figured, his heart starts to race as he steps closer. Upon getting a good look he finds he recognizes it as his best-best friend, Euyitl, the one he's spent months searching for!

He would try his best to manage a casual saunter, but it was hard for him to contain his excitement as he grinned from ear to ear. He had learned his lesson about sneaking up on her, so before approaching he'd call out.

"Long time no see, stranger~" his voice was playful and he'd continue walking up, booping her nose.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:23] The few past years felt like a shall of what had been, people she grew close to, faded like leaves in autumn. She sat in the sand, these forests she rested within, it was her new home, as it was away from everything. Huang didn't want her, Bauk rests in pieces; not that they gave her a reason to be there anymore. Crux, gone with ashes...

Her posture slouched towards the body of water, not much really meant to her, only a hopeful though, a wish, that kept her wandering. Not for the people, as everyone she came across didn't quite like her for a reason that she couldn't change. A blank stare into the sparkling waters that carried the reflection of it's moon, it felt serene.

Wings fluttered as her ears twitched to the familiar sound of a male's voice. One she forgot with passing days, his face almost a blank canvas prior to his voice being spoken out now. turning her head to look up at him, a weak smile adorning her tired visage. "Indeed a long time. Stranger." Every inch of her wished to jump with happiness, leap into him once more.

But such emotions were in the past as now lays a different woman who still yearns to grow in a reluctant world. "How have you been?" Many assumptions tossed in her thoughts, none she'd bluntly ask but await for Sugarboy to answer himself whilst explaining, if he would or not.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:37] He would take note of her change in demeanor, such was to be expected over six years of being apart. He had already prepared himself for this case, their last encounter she seemed to be hardening her emotions as a way of coping to stressful situations. He knew with Ceridor's death would be hard for her, even if he didn't know the details of their relationship as Vampire and thrall.

He worried for her when he heard of the statue of Wraith awakening and wreaking havoc in Cruxalti, and more so when Malentine opened a rift in Bauk that would wipe it from the map. He was afraid she might've been apart of the many lost in both encounters, however, he always held onto the hope they'd meet again.. And his faith was rewarded!

Even over the several years, Sugarboy remembered the swear he made to her in the dungeons of the Vampire city. And he did everything he could to hold true to that, she might've grown colder, but he was confidant he could warm her heart again.

"I've been doing pretty good, but I'm a heck of a whole lot better seeing you again." He had so many questions for her as well, there was so much to catch up on. He would bend over, gently kissing the side of her head, and only one question would come forth.

"Hey, is Euyitl hungry?" He'd ask hoping the throwback might stir something in her.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:46] Euyitl would slowly come to a stand, stretching her arms and tilting herself slightly away to extend her sides, then she'd do the same, except towards Sugarboy. "Heh, I'm glad to hear of it."

Indeed she seemed more distant and cold, even as she faced Sugarboy, she couldn't deny that he must've seen his fair share of unfortunate. There was a lot that she felt, words she didn't know quite well to translate such emotions. Even if he was with someone, was involved in something strenuous or time tasking. She'd simply lean forward, the towering woman she was, and rested her forehead against his.

As her actions spoke louder than words, her soft take of breath, followed by an exhale. Closing her eyes as her nose brushed against his. "I feel a lot better too. Seeing you again." Shaking her head slowly to his question, simply taking in the moment whilst it stood before her.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:02] He'd close his eyes as their noses brushed against each other, she was close enough he could smell the subtle scent of flowers she always had around her. It was a scent he always found intoxicating, and in this moment almost overwhelming. He could feel the fire in his eyes ignite behind his eyelids.

He'd wrap his arms around her waist, pulling her in even closer as he'd sway with her gently side to side.

"I've.. Missed you, so terribly much.. Hayashi told me you stopped by Huang several months ago.. I couldn't even contain my excitement, I skipped out of the Dojo and I've been looking for you ever since.. Not that I wasn't before- but.. With everything that's gone on in Agartha.. I didn't even know where to look for you.."

He talked in a hushed tone, his whispers wavered with immense emotion as he nuzzled his nose with hers, their lips not even an inch apart. He'd take a deep breath as he'd collect himself.

"I never lost hope though.. I knew we'd find our way back to each other one way or another.. Be it by fate or defying it, I knew we'd be together again."
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:13] A sudden shiver as his arms wrapped and pulled her closer, it felt all too surreal to be here, finally, with Sugarboy. Accepted. Her smile curls slightly more as the tension clinging to her shoulder slowly fades with each passing minute with him.

"Hayashi told me as well of your whereabouts, he's warned me though, since spotting me within Baukdengrad, that my time there is limited. I could've stayed... But that meant never leaving..." A feathered and clawed hands lifts as both sink away into her skin, leaving the delicate hand to cup his jaw.

"It was difficult for me. People changed just as you did in front of Ceridor… Some uglier." Her hues looked down upon admitting, that man remembered particularly. But their name went unremembered, their face a blank canvas. His actions only speaking for who he was that entire time she knew him.

"I just pray to the spirits that it does not happen again..." Resting the side of her head against his as she'd sigh. "... Especially with you. I don't think I could stomach seeing you go through that once again, not when I hold you in a special place." Her other hand wraps around him and into a hug as the hand that rested upon his face, it's thumb caressing his cheek.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:34] He'd hug her tightly as he listened to every word and concern. His hand would stroke up and down her spin, that one spot between her wings as he tried to physically comfort her.

Even with her worries, he felt reassured she still kept him close to her heart as he did. He'd lean back, caressing her cheek as well as he met her violet hues with his ocean blues, that passionate fire that seemed ever present when they were together.

"I've spent a lot of time thinking on what happened that night.. I- the fire in me.. I didn't have a good grasp of it.. But I've tempered it, gotten control of it.. But.. I've been through a lot.. My fire stopped being a problem, and I spent a couple of years.. Stuck? I.. Don't know how to explain it.." His smile would falter admitting how his magic influenced who he was, and how sometimes he couldn't fully control it.

"I don't ever want to hurt you like that again.. or at all.. Making you happy, seeing you smile.. It's the only thing I want in this world.." He'd take both of her hands into his, stepping back to pull her with him. He remembered Potayo saying she never had a cup of tea.

"We can talk more at my house- I can make us some tea, and I'll tell you whatever you wanna know- I'll catch you up on everything that's happened, make us some tea.. It.. Might have some tough topics, but I promise I'll make it fun~" He'd have a small smile on his face as he'd invite her over.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:46] Her wings fluttered slightly as that one spot is stroked, causing goosebumps to form across her skin. Slowly, the earth beneath her feet caved slightly, just enough for her head to prop against his chest. It felt more like she was dependent on him in this moment, never had she allowed herself to do so with anyone, even Ceridor.

"I don't doubt that you've grasped a firmer control of it, especially after you've thought of it after this long..." Looking up to him, a tenderness in her gaze as well as in her smile, genuine. "As will I, never hurt you." For a few more moments before she'd resume to rest her head against his chest, looking out to the body of water, it felt like they were alone in the world, for the time being.

"Mh, I'd like that. Only if you're ready, and comfortable." She'd say as her hand slips into his, fingers intertwining as the earth rises her to Euyitl's proper height before following sugarboy.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:48] Sugarboy would beam that big smile towards her, "I'm always comfortable around you, Euyitl~" He'd let go of her hands, turning around he'd squat down a bit and bring his arms back,

"Now hop on~" inviting her to climb onto his back, like old times.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:51] Chuckles as she'd droop over his back, arms wrapping around his neck as thighs grasp onto his waist. Wings curling backwards, lifting from the ground. Resting her chin upon his shoulder, keeping her eyes shut for she would smell his scent. Familiar, yet changed in subtleties.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:58] Sugarboy would lead the gorgeous Drakanite he cared so deeply for to.. Dawn? Leading her to a cliffside that had a nice view of the planes, he'd reach in his pocket and unlock the door, carrying her inside before locking it behind him.

He'd let go of her thighs and let her stand, "Soooo, welcome to my humble little abode, make yourself at home~ I got the comfiest chairs I could find over there at the table, and a dope ass water bed I made myself. I'm gonna slip into something more comfortable before making the tea." He'd give her free range to roam the house while he sauntered over to the bedroom to change.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:04] Reaching within the reaches of his abode, she'd find familiar warmth, one only Sugarboy could place. Wings fluttered as she was placed down onto the floor, glancing around whilst he wandered about his home. Violet hues glancing every which way before her feet would follow. Looking at the books, dishes, cooking pot and table, before eventually seeing herself in the mirrors.

"Who's that?" She'd ask, pointing as her attention turns to Sugarboy.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:10] The blonde would just be pulling his shorts up as she walked in the room and looked in the mirror. Normally someone might react when someone walks in on them changing, but Sugarboy didn't seem to mind in the slightest. He'd put on the same blue floral shirt and shorts she knew him best in.

He'd skip over to her, wrapping his arms around her as he placed his chin on her shoulder, "That tall, beautiful drakanite girl right there?" He'd ask as his reflection came up next to hers.

"That's just the love of my life~" He'd chuckle, kissing her on the cheek, "That's you, silly~"
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:17] She didn't seem to mind either, as her attention clung to everything new in her view. Especially the reflection as Sugarboy comes up behind her to wrap their arms around her waist, explaining that this was their reflection.

Chuckling, she couldn't help but place both of her hands up to her face, surveying her features. "this is the first time I've seen myself." Turning her head to the side, pecking his cheek. "You are handsome. The love of my life as well. Don't leave yourself out." Nuzzling the bridge of her nose against his cheek as she'd turn around to face him.

"Hayashi did mention there was a lot of things with tea, he gave me some green tea that tasted.... Okay. What kind of tea is your favorite?" She'd ask, wrapping her own arms around him briefly.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:26] She was just too adorable, they had finally seemed to be comfortable with each other, and reciprocating his love was just too much for the blonde. Before answering her question, he'd sweep her off her feet, holding her bridal style. He'd pepper her face with a barrage of kisses before dipping her low, holding his lips against hers for a long passionate kiss.

After they'd break away Euyitl would find there was new blue in his eyes, just that passionate fire.

"Oh, I like Valmasian Breakfast tea. Add some sugar, some milk, and mmmm scrumptious." he'd purr the words, bouncing his eyebrows on the last word, almost as if he weren't talking about the tea.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:30] Her eyes widened a little as she's swooped off her feet, chuckling softly as they'd make their way towards the table, but not without a passionate kisses followed by a barrage of smaller ones in a greater mass.

"I have yet to taste some Valmasian Breakfast tea. You should make us some, maybe teach me too so I can bring it to you every morning." She'd recommend with a smile, planting a softer kiss to his lips as well.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[12:37] Carrying her over to the table, Sugarboy would set her down in one of the comfy chairs before taking a seat himself. He'd drop a bag in the chair beside him and pull out the little cast iron tea set he always brought with him.

"So Valmasian breakfast tea is actually pretty easy to make- you just let your water come to a boil before adding the tea bags, which you can get from any common merchant here in Dawn or Crafthold." As he explained, he'd hold the tea kettle in the palm of his left hand, flicking the wrist of his right as he pulled the water from the air to fill it.

His left palm would ignite in a small fire that wrapped around the bottom edges of the kettle, and shortly after steam could be seen rising from the spout. He'd stand up and walk over to the kitchen, reaching into a refrigerated drawer, he'd pull out a glass of milk and go over to the pantry where he kept the tea bags before taking his seat beside Euyitl again.

He'd rub his feet along hers before weaving his legs and hers. "Let it steep for a couple minutes, and the tea is done!" He'd pour to cups for them and reach over the table and grab the sugar that was there. He'd put three spoonfuls of sugar into his before passing it to her.

"You want to add the sugar while the tea is still hot so it dissolves, and then you can add your milk! I like one part milk per two parts tea, but I got one helluva sweet tooth." He'd say with a grin before pouring the milk.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[12:49] The smile continued to rest upon her face as he'd place her within the chair, it felt unusual, yet reassuring. nostalgia settling in once she realized Sugarboy was in different clothing, the pair he wore during their first months together.

It'd only make her feel all the more happy inside, even whilst he begun to prepare the tea and explaining the process. "What do you like about this tea? Since there is so much to try, flavors and tastes."

Her ears twitch along with her feathers fluttering to the touch of warmth brushing against her feet, and so forth. Only a simple reaction of the same from her as she'd toy with him in a playful manner. "It only takes a few minutes? does it vary?" She'd ask, leaning forward and placing her elbow on top of the table, her hand propped against her chin as she watched Sugarboy with amusement and curiosity. With a kind admiration.

"I don't think I'm one forhaving a sweet tooth. Maybe half of what you prefer, please." She'd ask, measurements were still something she was learning, the science behind tea making. It fascinated her to be honest, the more she watched people now that she knew the common tongue, the more she desired knowledge.
(Euyitl)

{LOAD GAME}

[13:09] Sugarboy's old garb was much more revealing than the loose fitting black uniform she saw him in minutes ago. The sleeves rolled up just above his elbow would show at first glance matching tattoos on his forearms and shins. They looked like deep purple flowers petals caught in a breeze, but close inspection would show they were actually old burns from an occultic flame. The opening from having the shirt unbuttoned would show a large T-shaped scar, spanning across his collarbones and down the center of his torso, they were straight and seemed deliberate, not a wound from battle, but one from surgery.

He'd pour her cup, putting a single scoop of sugar and pouring a quarter of of milk into her's versus his third. He left plenty of room in the cup for her to add more tea or milk to her taste before handing it to her.

"The boiling process might take you longer, just because I'm a steam magi, so I kind of havean edge on that front." He'd say with a giggle.

"Steeping varies depending on the leaves you use. Since Valmasian Breakfast is a black tea, it has a strong flavor, so you don't need to steep it as long. Lighter teas, like green, take longer to steep just because it's flavor isn't as potent, so it needs more time to absorb all of it's nutrients and stuff." Explaining all of this it was evident during their time apart Sugarboy had grown a lot more knowledgeable, his vocabularly more diverse and proper than just using the slang he knew.

He'd pick the cup up, looking at her with the ever present smile on his face, "Tell me how you like that." he'd inquire before taking a sip of his own.

"I like Valmasian breakfast because it's more filling than normal tea, and it's really nice with biscuits.. Well, not like, big biscuits you butter, they're more like a cross between a cookie and a cracker."

(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:31] Violet hues panned over his bare skin, noticing scars of various kinds. Someone told her about where he was, she couldn't imagine what he'd gone through. It was perhaps one of the reasons she wasn't too harsh on him when they met where Deseti once stood.

They both went through their own tough times, in different ways, affected them both. Either physical or emotional, both perhaps. But it certainly wasn't something to ask about right now, not when the both were feeling so happy in each other's presence.

"Heh, I almost forgot about that, that you're a steam magi. I'll keep that in mind." She'd respond, with a smile brighter than the previous ones.

"I suppose due to your knowledge regarding alchemy, which I assume is a higher degree of cooking, that you know your tea leaves. I do wonder how your cooking varies from this." It was all very interesting to think about, perhaps being an alchemist had it's benefits outside of potion crafting. "Oh, which reminds me, how are your potion crafting coming along?"

Both hands, bare from feathers and claws, hug the tea cup as she'd bring the brim to her lips. Light wind magic coming into play to assist with blowing the steam, a steady little tornado to help cool the contents enough to drink without burning her lips.

"Mh." Lips pursed as the contents were tasted, then consumed. "It's very different from what Hayashi offered, much more robust and savory. I think it'd do well with something sweet, like you said. I like it." She'd commented, eyeing the dark brown colored liquid before meeting her gaze with Sugarboy's own.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[13:54] His smile would widen when he hears she enjoys it. He'd nod, "Yeah, my magical circuitry seems to have finally cemented itself.. Fire, water, steam, blood, and holy water... And regarding the alchemy and cooking, you're absolutely right. I always told my students Alchemy is just like cooking, but you use weirder ingredients than food.. But I have done some experimenting, putting things like Alessa, soothing reed, sinka.. The more herby stuff that can give the food interesting flavors and other effects." He'd take a big sip from the cup.

"As for my alchemy, I'm one of the best in Dawn! I put some time into trying to develop an immortality potion, but I didn't get very far. Read about the possibility of a youth potion being a thing, and then I got distracted with other studies... Spent some time as a teacher of alchemy, a trainer for some fighters.. I might not be able to fight myself, but I sure as hell can give a lesson on a proper ass whoopin!" He'd laugh as he joked about his own inaptitude as a warrior.

"I got licensed as a Doctor, and have a young man interested in studying under me. I've been super busy after Huangzhao warred against Baukdengrad, mending souls, applying prosthetics, the whole nine yards!" He'd finish off his cup while he flowed from topic to topic. Leaning back in the chair, a hand would slip under the table to brush up and down her thigh.

"So what about you? How has your training been going?" He'd never look away from her, the fondness he felt for her was almost tangible in his gaze. To him it felt as if they were the only two people in Eternia, even everything outside of the small bubble of them being so close didn't seem to exist to the blonde. As far as he was concerned, his whole world sat beside him, sipping on his favorite kind of tea.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:05] She'd chuckle, hearing him so passionate about his work and hobbies certainly made her happy as well. But when it came to the topic regarding herself, she'd shrug, taking a sip before answering verbally.

"I haven't been doing any fighting... Or productivity, since the death of Ceridor." Admittedly, he had brainwashed her a bit to follow in his beliefs of Cain. To serve him with loyalty and faith, it... Certainly isn't easy to let go such a promise, knowing full well what it holds regarding opportunities.

"I've been residing within Deseti's remains since Baukdengrads fall, and what came after as well. Trying to find some grounds." It was more... Like keeping herself away from an addiction, the urge to serve someone who can promise her something more than what she was. Envy what she couldn't have, as it was pulled from her grasp. She knew it wasn't good to feel so...

"I believe I'm justtrying to find a way now, something to keep my mind and body busy. I'm glad you've been doing well, it pleases me to hear, greatly." There was no hint of jealousy or envy, no, she was genuinely happy for him. That he'd find some light amongst the pain he endured, troubling tasks that challenged his mentality and physicality.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:23] His smile would soften as he heard her time wasn't as productive. It was funny almost, even after all this time, she was still that lost girl he found on the bench so many years ago. Except now she wasn't just far from home, her home was gone, burned to ashes, nothing left for her to return to.

When they met, he always mused to himself how they were both far far from home in a foreign land, it's kind of how they got along so well, he thought. Except Sugarboy wasn't from Agartha, or even the mainland. He was born and raised on a tiny island in the middle of the ocean. The only reason he was here at all was he didn't listen to the local sailors who warned about the ocean being angry one day. He would go out fishing in his little boat as he always did, but the tide would recede futher than it ever had, just before rushing back to the island as a large Tsunami, claiming it and it's inhabitants. He would be stuck out at sea before getting caught up in a storm, his little boat would capsize and through some miracle or stroke of luck, he would wash up on the shores of Agartha.

He had lost his home years before meeting Euyitl, perhaps it's what drove him to make her feel so comfortable? He understood her pain, and tried everything he could so she wouldn't have to live with it. But Agartha was a cruel place, and she had nowhere else to go.

He would stand up from the table, placing a hand on her chin as he gently kissed her. "I have a couple gifts for you.. Close your eyes, and no peeking~" He'd say playfully as he skipped back over to the room.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:27] * You have been awarded 0.25 Roleplay Points! *
[14:32] She'd chuckle softly just after he'd kiss her, gaze following before he'd ask she'd keep her eyes shut. Which she'd do so, facing the table with both eyes shut, her ears twitching to the subtle noises he'd create.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:46] It didn't take him long to retrieve the gifts, he had kept this house organized from day one, and it didn't quite have the clutter one would accumulate from extended stays, no, he only visited this house seldomly as he was always out somewhere doing something just to keep himself busy.

He would skip back behind her, trying to be as quite as possible, but such a thing was hard to do when he wore wooden sandals across wood floors.

Euyitl would feel the weight of something relatively heavy on her chest, followed by Sugarboy's fingers delicately fiddling with a clasp behind her neck. A trail of kisses would start on her shoulder, following up her neck and jaw line, ending on her check.

"You can open your eyes now." He'd purr in her ears softly before taking a seat.

Around her neck she would find a hefty adamantite necklace, soft purple in color, with a light glow to it.

As she opened her eyes to look at it, he'd go on an explain, "I found that in the caves a long while back, flickering in the dirt.. It's color reminded me a lot of your eyes, so I took it and cleaned it up.. It's been a little treasure of mine since."

There was fondness in his voice, he had taken it as a momento, the color really did match her eyes, and he spent many nights staring into it, wishing they were her own.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:46] {Item} You drop Adamantite Amulet.
[14:46] {Item} You picked up Adamantite Amulet. Dropped by Sugarboy. .
[14:46] {Item} You drop Adamantite Amulet.
[14:58] She heard the wooden sandals, the skipping beat in their steps would elicit a lighthearted chuckle to release from her lips. Followed shortly, a few exhales with every peck he'd gift her.

Slowly, her eyes open, the chill of metal caressing her skin would be the first hint as fingers gently grasp the necklace. "Mh, it's beautiful." She'd say while looking down at it, then turning to look at Sugarboy. "You're too kind. I only have these to offer from my travels. It's not much, I sold what I found to other alchemists."

Reaching into her pouch, she'd unveil a few sugarcap mushrooms, offering them to Sugarboy. Slightly blushing from his heart warming words.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:58] {Item} You picked up Sugarcap Mushroom x2. Dropped by Euyitl.
[15:12] Sugarboy would happily take them, giving them a lick. "Mmm.. Sugarcap shrooms, my favorite shrooms." he'd say with a laugh as he put them in his bag to add to his stock of reagents.

"Now it's time FOR GIFT NUMBER TWO!" He'd pump alternating fists in the air with each word he shouted, building hype for the next gift.

However, this next gift was even smaller than the last, already hiding in the palm of his closed hand. He'd take on of her hands into his as he dropped it in her palm.

It was a key.

"That's a key to the house, so you can come and go as you please... ooooooor you can just live here.. With me.. if ya want." he'd say, leaving the choice up to her but his tone obviously showed a bias for the latter.

"This is just kinda a place for me to crash and store some stuff, so you can feel free to use it as the same.. It's just a house to me, but with you here, it could really be a home.. I was actually playing around with the idea of building another house somewhere else, maybe in Huang.. But there's not a whole lot keeping me here in Dawn anymore.. But after I heard you were looking for me, I held onto all the materials I got for building. Which I guess brings me to a.. Third, sorta gift, sorta offer.. Do you wanna go build a place we can call home? We can go anywhere in Agartha, start a new life together.. I have like, five thousand gold, and enough reagents to start a business.. If ya want of course." It started as an explanation of the gift, and devolved into a full ramble in typical Sugarboy fashion.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:13] {Item} You drop Benevolence Key.
[15:22] A chuckle to hear him pleased. But her ears perked once more of a second gift, tempted to decline but she'd decide to wait and see before deciding. Lips parted to speak, yet Sugarboy's words would keep her silent as she'd listen, smiling.

Waiting until he was finished. She'd stand up, leaning forward to rest her forehead against his, nudging her nose against his. "You are my home." She'd softly mutter, eyes closing whilst fingers slip to intertwine with his. A tender and loving embrace. "Anywhere you go, where you want to stay and live, my answer will always be yes."

Wings fluttered as she'd blush, admitting her feelings she couldn't utter before. Placing a kiss upon his lips. "That is... If you'll let me." Tilting her head, seeking some response that he thought of the same with her.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:46] Sugarboy's cheeks would turn rosy as she said her piece and kissed him. He'd rise from his chair and pull her closer, meeting her with a long passionate kiss, standing on the tips of his toes to nuzzle his nose against her, a reversal of what she had just done.

"You are my home too, Euyitl." He'd whisper to her, reciprocating her feelings.

"You always have been, since the moment we met on that bench.. My soul was a restless storm before I met you.. I never liked being.. Contained, and that's exactly how I felt in Huang.. I just got released from the clinic after having to stay indoors for two weeks, and then I couldn't even leave Huang because of the kidnappings.. But all of those feelings washed away when I met you.. You brought me peace, and happiness.. I felt like I was where I belonged when I was with you."

There was only a small ring of blue in his eyes as the rest was consumed by fire. His eyes would glance down when he started, thumbs rubbing against the back of her hands as they were clasped together while he poured his heart out to her. He'd look back to her with the most genuine smile of adoration and love.

"And even when we were apart, you were still the wind in my sails that kept me going, moving forward. You were the breath in my lungs even when I couldn't tread water.. Euyitl, I love you, and I want to spend my life with you, forever and always. No matter what happens, whatever trials or disasters come our way, I want to face and over come them with you. And I mean that from the bottom of my heart."
(Sugarboy)

[17:46] Sugarboy would would be quiet for a while, pulling her close and resting his head on her chest, her heartbeat even mor soothing in this tender moment.

"I don't really care as long as I'm with you~ I played around with the idea of having a house in every faction... But let's just wait and see what the winds of fate have in store for Agartha.. Maybe Huang, maybe crafthold, shit, I even heard Crux is still trying to hold on.. But there's a man.. A frenemy of mine in crux.. We should avoid it."

He'd nuzzle his head into her chest as they stand there, their future possibly going anywhere.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[17:50] She'd smile, warmly so as Sugarboy rests his head against her chest, a hand resting to gently stroke blonde strands. "Whatever you decide, I will support you. And do what I must to protect us. No one quite knows of my relations, as I'm not tied to anything at the moment. Only Hayashi threatens my safety since he's seen me in Baukdengrad, but it's nothing quite serious."

Resting her cheek against his head, gentle nudges given as she'd continue to caress him.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[18:24] He would just hum, the vibrations reverberating throughout her chest. " If we do go back to Huang, I can vouch for you.. I think I have enough sway that it's not even a concern... But hey, we're partners, I'll support you in whatever you want to do and vice versa." He'd duck down and sweep her off her feet again.

"AND, you haven't even checked out my dope as water bed!!" He'd say excitedly as he'd carry her over. The bed was large, clearly made for two people and with the tall in mind.

He'd lay her down, and the bed would ripple around her. He'd jump over her onto the other side, the bed pushing them up and down as it rippled from their contact.

"It's not just comfortable, but super functional! I can use my magic it warm it up, make it firmer or softer depending on your preference.. And I can even use it as a secret weapon should there be any home intruders.. like, imagine that,I walk in to someone digging through my chests, and BAM a bed flies at them and pins them to the wall!" He'd laugh as he imagined it.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[18:42] "I'd like that. I have no enemies in neither places." She'd say, enjoying the sound of being partners, the both of them supporting the other.

Her ears perked as Sugarboy mentions a waterbed, quite confused how that worked. But it was soon made clear as she was tossed onto the waving surface, her tall figure slowly sinking within as a constant shift of liquid rests underneath her.

"Eh-" quite surprised. "I've never been on a waterbed before..." Hearing his reasons, she'd chuckle. "They do sound like very valid points. You can control water and fire... I can control wind and earth..." The last sentence spoken to herself as she thought about it.

"It's quite funny, isn't it? You can control steam and blood, whilst I with occult winds. A mage and swordsman. A little bit of both worlds." She'd smile upon the thought as Sugarboy made himself comfortable beside her, the water shifting again, only making her chuckle even more.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[19:08]
{LOAD GAME}

[19:29] He'd smile as he rolled over to one side, propping his head up with one hand. He'd laugh at the comparison between their powers and abilities. "Haha yeah! We got all our bases covered. I said it before when we were harvesting fire crystals, and I'll say it again: we make one hell of a team~"

He'd brush his nose against her when he made a call back to a moment that seemed like a lifetime ago. His free hand resting on the nape of her neck before kissing her again on the lips. He took his time, savoring every second, as if making up for lost time.

The hand on her neck would move, a single finger tracing her voluptuous figure before resting on her hip. he'd break from the kiss but wouldn't move back, resting his forehead against hers, looking into those violet hues he adored so.

"Soo, did you want to catch up on our past now? Maybe make a game out of it, like twenty questions, but we take turn asking? Or did you just wanna keep enjoying our time together?" He nuzzle his nose against her with the second half of his inquiry about what she'd like to do. However he had no preference in the matter. For him the past was in the past, he always kept moving forward so bringing up the past didn't stir any old emotions, but he also did enjoy the physical contact they shared. It was something he longed for for many years.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[19:42] "I almost forgot that you did." Sometimes she did regret asking him to come along, maybe he wouldn't have suffered such fate if she hadn't brought him. She didn't know whether to be thankful or not.

But her attention is pulled as his hands and lips traveled to savor her taste, Euyitl smiling during the process every so subtly. A hand raises to rest upon his cheek, thumb caressing the warmth his skin brought. Looking into his eyes, nostalgia and familiarity, comfortable and reassured.

"I don't mind. All that matters now is how we move forward together." She'd say, snuggling close to him as she'd brush her nose against his jawline.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[19:55] Resting his head on the pillow, he'd snake the hand he was using to prop his head up with under her neck, reaching around to run his fingers through her hair.

"I agree about moving forward together.. But I wanna get it out of the way.. I've made a lot of questionable decisions, and it's gotten me in a nice position, but it can easily fall apart if I'm not careful.. I just want you to know just so absolutely everything is out on the table.. I don't want another situation like when I attacked Ceridor to happen, ya know?" He'd kiss her forehead lightly a couple of times.

"I guess what I'm saying is get comfortable because it's story time, sweetheart!"
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[20:08] She'd smile, enjoying the comfortable moment they were having while it lasted. "I understand. You have my ears, my dear." She'd say, laying at his side in silence while hearing him out.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[20:37] He'd roll onto his back, looking up at the ceiling as if the information he was looking for was up there. "So.. The last thing I really remember was Ceridor coming to my cell.. I did like you said and I cooperated fully, I vaporized through the bars and I put some water shackles on myself to show him how compliant I was.. We left and that's where I don't remember what happened..

I woke up in a laboratory here in Dawn, but I had no memories. Nothing from before, I couldn't even remember my name. But the worst part was.. I forgot how to feel . Like, physically and emotionally, happiness, sadness, pain and pleasure, none of it.

I explored the lab and found a sarradian woman with white hair, Lady Nihilexia Wight. She seemed surprised to see me up and moving. I asked her two questions, who was she, and who was I. She introduced herself, and told me my name was Sugarboy, I honestly thought she was fucking with me. I didn't even recognize my own name! She told me she had found me with a fatal injury, and healed me.. That's how I got this big scar" He'd say pointing at the T across his chest.

"I don't know what Ceridor did, but I guess it was gruesome enough that my mind didn't want me remembering it.. I was thankful to the noble woman, so I agreed to be her retainer, and serve her house. She was married to a knight, Lord Gideon Ruger.

They showed me a bunch of books, and I took to alchemy and cooking very well, and showed an interest in medicine. They'd give me funds and a workshop. Being the husk I was, the only thing that really pushed me was my duties, which I delved into fully. I showed enough diligence they promoted me to Head of Resource Management. They told me I was to serve Dawn and it's people.

However, I woke up with a magic restraint on, I think it was a probationary thing.. But I couldn't leave Dawn. So while I was waiting on my reagents and rice to grow, I'd study the word of Azrael, as I was told our house was a religious one and they wouldn't house a blasphemer.

However, I read the books atleast three time while waiting to tend to my crops. I would find many lost youth, and I would assist them, train them. There was a house member, an undead of Gideon's, Sindarin Signus. He is the founder of the deathknights, a guild founded to spread Azrael's word and fight those who oppose it. I'd assist him in training the squires..

I, came to see them as the big family I never had. But it was short lived. One of Lady Wight's undead, he prized undead, her magnum opus.. Was flawed, it went awol and brought shame to her name. She would kill it, and it hurt her.. Shortly after, Lord Gideon would be publicly shamed for trying to mobilize his undead against Huangzhao while claiming the council was doing nothing while our people were attacked. He would transfer the deeds to his properties to Lady Wight, and he would exile himself. She believed he would come back, as he had done this in the past.. But he never did.

I saw the love they shared, and I knew it was devastating for Lady Wight.. She told me I was all she had left. It only strengthened my resolve to serve her and Dawn, to bring honor to the Ruger name. But she too, would disappear.

The only remaining members of house Ruger were Sindarin, Revenant, another undead of Gideon's, and myself. I would maintain the lab and garden for Lady Wight's return, helping Sindarin and Revenant when I could.

However, I fear Revenant has since rotted away, as he was in poor shape last I saw him. And Sindarin has been struggling with occult madness, he has attacked me and several other Deathknights. It was.. Unideal, I especially saw Sindarin as a brother. He came to me as a confidant, an adivsor..

After my collar fell off, I would begin solo expeditions to gather reagents I couldn't grow.. Fire crystals and amber on the volcano. When I was up there, I found a cauldron in a peculiar location. I investigated it, and it stirred something inside of me.. I felt, empty, as if I was missing something, or someone ."

He'd look down from the ceiling to meet her eyes, a small smile on his face as he was implying it was her.

"The first memory that came back to me happened when I saw two teens I took somewhat under my wing, a boy and a girl. They were making a blood pact to each other in the woods while I was patrolling, they swore to be friends forever.. And that's when I heard your voice that first time on the bench." He'd lean forward and give her an eskimo kiss.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[21:45] "All of the memories that came back to me first were always of you.." he'd say sweetly. "The next one was on the volcano when we were looking over the ocean..

I'd eventually be spotted by a Huangzhao scouting party. Zeriel and Hayashi were there. I was on the cliffside and they were just coming out of the cave. Zeriel recognized me, they asked where I had been, and I answered honestly. I didn't recognize them, but they wanted to bring me back. I thought I was safe on the cliff, but Zeriel propelled himself up the cliff, he asked me to come back with him, but I had no desire to return to Huang.

So I politely declined, and he forcefully insisted. I would try to escape nonviolently, but he pursued, raising his staff at me. A fight would ensue and I would lose.

I would be taken back to Huangzhao, but instead of waking up in a cell, I would wake up in the clinic. They understood I had amnesia, but had no idea how to treat me. They left me in the care of Vee and Hatsu, two people who stepped up and claimed to be friends.

But here's the thing, Hatsu was a new fourfold soldier who didn't know me, and he was just hanging with Vee. And Vee was also am Amnesiac I was friends with, but we met in Dawn .

We would leave the clinic after I got the OK from a soldier I was good to go. I'd stop by the Xiang manor as I was hit with another memory, the complete picture of us meeting.. It was nice.. I stood there for a bit and Eagleheart and Koume would walk up.

They investigated my condition further, and we would talk for a while. I didn't recognize them, but I answered everything they said as honestly as I could, hiding details like me worshipping Azrael and me being a high ranking member of the Deathknights.

I was.. Really cold, calculating.. They seemed nice, and I used that to my advantage. I told them I had duties to return to, students and youth who needed me.. I had to return to Lady Wight, the noble who saved me who said I was all she had left . Eagleheart would grant me passage to come and go as I pleased, so long as I came to talk to him every visit.

I would explore Huang a bit that night, searching every nook and cranny for any more memories I could.. A lot of them were on the beach there.. I would then return to Dawn, and report my capture to Lady Cho, a highly respected member of the council here. I suggested it could be beneficial to Dawn as a method of gathering information, she agreed. She would pardon me and say that she would come to me with a subject to gather research on, and she would pay me handsomely. I never really liked money, before and after losing my memories, but I agreed.

It gave me a free pass /everywhere/. Huang welcomed me because they wanted to see me get better, I was a citizen of Dawn, and with that came the ceasefire with Baukdengrad. Vampires couldn't touch me, and I would even diffuse most of them just acting respectfully and be seen as an ally among a lot of them. People from Crux would ignore me as long as I said I was from Dawn, and Crafthold didn't care about who I was.. I was finally free to roam at my leisure!

I would eventually regain my memories, but I never got my feelings back.. I was.. A broken toy, as an old friend had labelled me..

I would spend more and more time in Huang, as my family here was gone, and with it my reason for staying here.. But still, should I run into someone from Dawn, I'd still claim citizenship, and if they asked where I was going, I said Huang to gather info for Lady Cho, and that would always save my ass.

Potayo would eventually get captured and detained in Huang, and I would spend a lot of time with him.. We'd have tea on the beach, and he'd talk about how.. Life was like an ocean.. I don't know why, but that awakened the pieces I was missing, and I came back fully!

Anyway... So time for a side story.. It's how I got these burns.. My first best friend, Epsilon, was the first person who talked to me after I washed up in Huang when I was seventeen.. He was a fire magi, and he would help me unlock my water magic.. And he would teach me fire- no.. He gave me some of his fire- it's how I got this brand.. He told me to understand fire, I had to understand pain..

But the fire he gave me was so much more, it was tied to my anger, my drive, my passion.. I wanted to learn more.. I followed him everywhere, and we got in so much trouble.. We ran into two demons, one tried to eat me, but he fought both of them off.. I was too weak to help him, and I swore to him I'd grow stronger..

We kept travelling together, but we stopped after getting attacked by vampires.. He lost his eyes in the fight, and I had my blood boiled.. I lead us back to Huangin a daze, and after getting treated, he left while I was forced to stay inside..

Hemoincendia meant I couldn't be exposed to heat without having a stroke, and I had to stay inside for atleast two weeks.. It was a couple days after that I found you, actually..

But Epsilon had a secret, something I saw during every intense encounter, he'd laugh.. Not confidently, but madly . His fires would eventually grow purple as his mind was slowly corrupted..

I didn't see him for atleast a year before he found me shortly after in Dawn.. He was happy to see me, but it was short lived when he saw the state I was in. He called me a broken toy, and stopped talking to me when someone else approached.. He talked of me like I was a thing and he said he was going to try and fix me.. It irritated me, but he said he would visit me again, and I was cordial in saying I'd appreciate that.

He'd show up again a couple days later, and he thought he had found a way to bring me back.. He asked me what was the first gift he gave me.. I thought it might be an item, but after studying him shortly, I knew it was a trick. I saw flames flicker around him, and I'd point at the brand on my neck.

He laughed.. He said he might've normally accepted that answer, but no.. His gift to me was pain and that was his solution to fix me.. To make me endure so much pain it tapped into my memories... But it backfired.. Horribly..

My amnesia was spurred by pain.. And pain only made me sink deeper into wherever I was hiding in my mind.. I was defenseless, unable to cast magic, and he didn't hold back as he assaulted me with his occultic fire..

I didn't feel pain, and that only irritated him further.. He tried to let his occult magic seep into my mind, but I was too far gone for it to do anything.. It only taught me.. Hate.. I hated him, and for the first time in my life, I threatened someone's life..

But that only delighted him, he welcomed the challenge, the threat on his life..

I didn't see him again for a few years.. We'd run into each other after I got my memories, in the maplewoods.. I told him I was going to bring him to Huang, to fix him.. but he didn't want that, but he wanted to take me to Baukdengrad, to meet a friend of his.. Neither of us wanted to budge, so we fought..

He beat me, as he always did when we sparred.. He always was super strong.. But I'd escape.. He warned me of Invidia's gate.. Before the war.. I didn't know what he meant, but he alluded to Malentine destroying Baukdengrad..

After I heard you were looking for me, I went to crux to find you.. And he ran into me again.. He was working with someone, a new regime for Crux.. He said he had authority and asked why he shouldn't execute me..

I had regained more of myself, my hate had died down, and I told him I thought we were still friends, and I apologized for wanting to fix him.. I agreed to go to Bauk's ruins to meet his friend..

It was.. Nice travelling with him again.. But his friend wasn't home.. We'd sit and talk.. He told me how he had a vision for this world, how it's supposed to work.. How chaos is supposed to rule, and about being true to one's self.. He told me he understood his purpose, his calling.. What brought him amusement, and it was spreading chaos..

He reached out to me, there was emotion in his voice.. He wanted me back as a friend, and I felt the same.. I told him I'd try to see the world as he does, to try and reconnect with him.. But I'd only do it on one condition.. He left you alone.. I didn't say your name.. But he agreed, mostly..

But he said things that worry me.. He talked about how he wanted to 'tear down what people have built, and watch it crash down around them'.. And he said 'we are all truly alone.. We have allies, but they are temporary. In the end, we can only depend on ourselves.'.. Then he said he wanted to meet you, and described you as my 'keystone'..

I think it was a threat.." Sugarboy's tone was pretty happy as he told the story, but it would shift to worry as he brought up his latest encounter with Epsilon.

"We will most likely run into him again.. And if we do.. Act naturally, act interesting .. I want to believe he'd leave us alone if we don't mess with his plans, or maybe earn his favor if we help in some small way.. But I'm afraid he wants to hurt you.. Use you against me, to teach me another lesson, to force his view on me.. To take away the only person I hold dear in this world..

But I won't let him.. If he threatens us, or I think he's trying something.. We have to kill him." He would stop there, letting the grim words hang in the air.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[22:12] She watched him go through multiple phases of emotions that'd challenge her own, tempted to console him with words or hugs. But she'd wait until he was finished, staying silent as those vibrant violet hues observed him in admiration.

All of the pain and suffering... While it assisted to better the person he was, she still couldn't help but feel responsible for it. The pain was quite noticeable within her eyes, yet she never looked away. This felt like her punishment, yet a goal at the same time, to never hurt him again. To never leave him alone to face such ordeals...

But a hand reaches to cusp his cheek, pulling his attention towards her. "Perhaps he does. But it is a possibility you may be overthinking." Lithe fingers carefully brush away blonde strands from his eyes. "I'm quite positive that what ever may come our way, we'll find to work around it. For it would be very cruel for the world to separate us yet again, after just finding one another..."

"I love you, no matter how far away you are. I'll be quite fine if the situation rises where I should act /interesting/, perhaps he'll be blinded by the same beauty you admire, and overthink the situation as well." A soft chuckle, an attempt to lighten the mood.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[22:33] His ocean blue eyes would meet her own as she grabbed his attention. All of his fears would wash away as she comforted him, but not quite all of his worries. Sugarboy understood Epsilon on a level he doubt very few people did. He was a trickster, a sheep in wools clothing. We acted like a frail, friendly old man to get people to trust and underestimate him. He wasn't someone to be taken lightly.

A weight had been lifted from his shoulders, he had laid bare all of his ordeals, all of his fears, his sins, and she had sat through it all, listening to him as he seemed to prattle on forever.

However, the thing that mattered most to the blonde was Euyitl's faith in him, in them as she reassured him that everything would be fine. His smile would return as he shimmied closer to her, putting a hand on her cheek in kind.

"I love you so much, and I'll love you no matter how far apart we are, and I'll fight with everything I've got to make it back to you.. But they'll have hell to pay if they try to separate us again." His smile would widen as his tone would lighten up.

He'd throw a leg over her side and straddle her hips, a barrage of kisses coming in across her cheeks, lips, and neck. They started as short little pecks, but gradually grew in length and intimacy, especially along her neck and lips.

(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[22:49] She'd chuckle to hear his words and promises, as it filled her heart with light while worry faded, even if for a moment, she'd relish within the joy found in these small moments.

Laughter would soon turn to blushing as the intimacy between them grew. Her eyes unyielding to look away from Sugarboy's own ocean hues.

Transfixed, hands wandered in attempt to tickle at first, but soon wander to caress in a tender manner. Hugging mostly. "That makes two of us." She'd mutter with a smile.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:07] He'd giggle at the attempt at tickling, wrapping his arms around her head as they hugged while he was still sitting ontop, their bodies pressed together.

He was quiet as he silently appreciated this simple, happy moment. His studies of Azraelism had taught him this world was cruel, and disproportionately balanced when it came to resources and fairness. Yet it was moment like these that made him feel blessed, as if they hoarded all the joy in the world with their interactions.

There were only a couple of people he could enjoy simple moments like this. The only other person really being Potayo, but it was different with him. They were just friends with similar outlooks and desires for peace. With Euyitl he was elated to just be in her company, it didn't matter where they were or what they were doing, he treasured every passing second as they simply existed beside each other.

He would brush his check against hers, "You hungry? I got plenty of goodies I've been saving for a special occasion just like this~ Savory King Crab, delectable rainbow fish, I've even been saving a bunch of pork because I know it's your favorite~" He'd whisper in her ear, his breath catching lightly on her elongated Drakanite ears.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:17] Her ears twitched, not only from the warmth of his breath but because she was, quite hungry. "Admittedly, I am quite hungry." Blushing slightly, he certainly did know her very well. After all of this time, she did favor pork above all other meat.

"I've never tried this... Kind crab or... Rainbow fish. Honestly, they sounds quite poisonous." Chuckling, they did.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:34] he'd sit up quickly, "POISONOUS!?" The fisherman exclaimed, playfully sounding insulted. "Rainbow fish is a rare DELICACY , requiring the finest bait, and years of searching for the perfect fishing spot and DON'T even get me started on the skill required to even catch one! They are notorious for stealing bait because they nibble so lightly on your hook! It takes vigilance, and concentration to feel the faintest tug on your hook to even know when one is stealing from ya!

And crab is absolutely DELICIOUS, OOH, steamed to a nice orange, you can crack one of their legs open and get that juicy, tender meat that's thicker than a fat man's thumb! MMMM And dip it in some melted butter, oh don't even get my started about how the fuckers can cut your line and lose ya a hook." He'd stop himself, based on the ooh's and mm's he used to describe the crab, it was obvious it was his favorite.

He'd laugh for a good bit before cupping her face in both of his hands, he'd lean back down and give her a long kiss with an audible 'MUAH' before hopping out of bed and skipping over the a chilled chest he kept the meats in. He'd pull out several legs of pork, displaying them to her as if they were a bouquet of flowers.

"Next question is, how hungry are ya?" he'd ask with a big grin on his face.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:43] Blinking as he'd go on to explain the process of capturing these individual fish. But she'd end up smiling in the middle of it, admiring his dedication and fascination. Perhaps even a bit of a chuckle would escape her lips before he'd kiss them.

"Not too much, I'm hungry but do wish to save some for later." Slipping off from the bed, moving to stand near him, overlooking their shoulders. "I don't believe you've ever taught me how to fish, hm?" Euyitl asked with a tilt of her head.
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:50] He'd put away most of the legs, holding onto one he'd blast it with steam until it was thoroughly cooked through, handing it to her. "I didn't know you wanted to- I'd be more than happy to show ya~ It's really not that hard, haha. A lot of it is luck and doing what ya can to keep what ya get.. Huh, I bet I could turn that into some profound metaphor for life or something." He'd grin widely before laughing.
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[23:57] "I felt like I probably mentioned it years ago... Perhaps it was a wish, I couldn't properly express with the common tongue." But it wouldn't stop her from not trying at least.

Her eyes glued to the meat as it was steamed, seasonings causing saliva to build up. "Mh, that smells wonderful." Though her attention turns back to Sugarboy's face upon hearing the metaphor, she'd chuckle as well. "It suits, to be honest. I wouldn't be surprised if it something you'd tell our kids when they're going through trouble of their own."
(Euyitl)
[00:18] There'd be a twinkle in his eye at the mention of kids, "Kids, huh?" his grin would stretch ear to ear, a happily smug tone in his voice, he'd phrase it as a question as if he hadn't thought about it.

"What could we possibly do with some kids? Teach them to fish and cook? Tell them not to judge someone not by where they're from or the magic they use, but by how they conduct themselves and how they act? I guess you'd probably train them to be terrifying little swordsmen and I'd treat all their booboos after practice?~ Or maybe I could teach them how to fish and cook?~ And between our two incredibly diverse styles of magic, we can help them with almost any form of arcane art they could want, as they grow strong and kind, developing their own style and gracing Agartha with their own beautiful personalities?" He'd go on, painting their picture perfect little family.

He'd put his hands on her waist, pulling her close to his. He'd go in for a kiss if her eyes weren't already transfixed on the pork in her hand, so he'd simply sway with her side to side, nodding.

"Yeah, that sounds really nice.. Our own little sweet family.. A couple of little sugarbabies.. And you as my Sugarmomma~" He'd fantasize as two fingers walked up her chest, hopping up to boop her nose.

"I'd really love that."


(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:36] She'd chuckle the more he went on to describe their possible future with children involved. The last bit making her laugh more than she had thought. "Indeed, our own little sugarfamily."

"It seems like you've already figured out what we could possibly do with some kids." She'd say, returning the kiss and letting him sway the two side to side. "I honestly am happy, and enjoy the thought of having children with you, Sugarboy."

"To see a girl or boy, that looks like you, being taught how to cook or fish. Sharing our affinities and growing into a wonderful and unique adult..." A soft hum as her nose was booped, chuckling afterwards. "Perhaps after we build a home we can live in for a long time? Is when we can start?"
(Euyitl)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:03] "And I'd absolutely adore seeing one of our children take after you~ Having your beautiful plumage, growing head and shoulders over me into a strong and respectable warrior.. We have so much love we could give them, equipping them with not just the skills to survive, but to thrive and prosper in this world as a little beacon of happiness for others.." He'd nod as he gazed into her eyes, pure happiness in his expression and movements.

"I feel the exact same way.. It was always my dream to start a family with you, Euyitl, ever since we met all those years ago~"

He was genuine about every word he said to her, no one brought as much joy to him as the fair skinned Drakanite, and he couldn't imagine a more ideal future. It almost seemed like a dream, reuniting with her and reconnecting immediately, planning their future together. But it was all very real, and completely doable, which only made the whole situation that much sweeter.

The swaying would evolve into a full blown dance around the house, as he lead her around in circles, spinning around without a care in the world.

"Yes yes yes! We'll go looking for the perfect little plot of land, and build the quaintest little home for our budding family~"

The passionate fire in his eyes couldn't be contained anymore, and flames would dance around them as they continued to spin around, their bodies close enough to feel each other's hearts beating.

"Euyitl, you're my soulmate, and there's absolutely no other way to describe it"
(Sugarboy)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[01:18] Chuckling. "I love everything about that." She'd comment, leaving the imagination up to him to speak for them both, as she shared the same ideas. Letting Sugarboy lead the two about the house, dancing as one another turned the other around within a small circle.

She couldn't have had it any other way, despite some regrets, she still appreciated the time they spent together, right now. "I can't wait." Offering pecks and kisses to his cheek, whilst hands clasped his own as one another were pressed against each other, warmth comforting.

Another soft chuckle before a kiss is planted at his neck. "As you are my soulmate, I feel, otherworldly when I am with you." Pulling him close to the bed, eventually falling into the loose surface. "Today has been eventful. Though, we should get some rest, yet? Tomorrow is another day closer to that dream of ours." She'd suggest while wrapping his arm around her waist.

[01:32] He'd fall into bed with her, laughing loudly he'd pull the sheets and covers back so he can drape it over them. With a snap of his fingers all of the lanterns would be snuffed out. He'd happily follow her guidance, wrapping his arms around her waist as he spooned her.

He'd kiss her neck before giving her one last, intimate kiss on the lips. "Goodnight Euyitl, I love you~" he'd say before resting his head on the pillow and falling asleep, the absolute happiest he had in years.

[01:32] Euyitl would whisper before falling asleep soon after.
