[ don't worry, it's not a fancy dataverse. actually it's just his room back at base, empty and quiet and thankfully devoid of other people. ]
Call it more hands-on learning experience. We don't have anything like this in Fontaine, you know.
[ but that's not why he invited her in here. that particular reason makes itself clear after he motions for her to come a little closer before tugging her into a hug, his arms wrapping solidly around her.
yeah, he just wanted to hold her, so sue him. and maybe it's not the same as an actual in-person hug but it's better than nothing. ]
[ wdym hands on? she'd rather have his actual hands on her right now!! but beggars can't be choosers, and she stumbles a little towards him before embracing him in return, hiding her face in the crook of his neck.
they hold each other like that for a while, and she breaks the silence with an equally sleepy voice. ]
It's frustrating. You're not even that far away from me, and yet...
[ sorry... let her whine a little until she passes tf out ]
[ on one hand, yes absolutely. but otoh, too tired to catch anything right now... she pulls her head away from his beck for a tiny bit just to yawn. ]
I might forget again... I'm going to pin a reminder for when this is all over.
[ makes a pin that's half-coherent and tucks it away in her oculars. ]
I just wish... you don't have to put up a lot of fronts with people all the time. It's okay to... [ another yawn ] let people in every once in a while. Even if it's Vergilius...
his expression shutters at the mention of vergilius, the smile dropping off his face. sorry queen but he has too much trauma for that. but he doesn't say anything right away, choosing instead to stroke her hair a few times before pressing a light kiss against the side of her head. ]
I let you in, didn't I?
[ that's not what she meant but he really doesn't want to talk about this now, especially when she's on the verge of passing out. ]
[ it's not that she's too insecure about it, but she does wonder how she managed to get a guy like him to like her back. truly he sets the bar pretty high for most guys around here.
thanks for the kiss, though. she's going to return it with a short peck on his cheek before giving him a goodbye squeeze. ]
Later.
[ and then she glitches out of his world, a sign that she gradually passes out. goodnight, wriothesley <3 ]
