I already have you to help with that. With Ardbert, well. It is more that I dislike seeing people go through things I have. And unfortunately for myself, if I can help I want to.

Something you unfortunately for me, kept encouraging.

You could always use more in my humble opinion.

You ability to express yourself has become a quality of yours.

How is the jealousy going?

A little better than I expected. Sometimes it rears its ugly head but so far I'm able to keep it at bay.

Yours?

Similar despite knowing it is rather foolish. It doesn't help that Caeli is actually a little charming.

We are quite the pair, aren't we?

I wouldn't have it any other way. And if anything the fact we're both having some slight jealousy issue makes me feel a little less foolish for it. At least we can work through it together.

It does help that we can both look upon it from our own and the other's perspective, thus quelling the worry somewhat. And we have both lost a great deal, almost accustomed to it rather than gaining.

But I am happy for you and your new found relationship. And I do wish any shard of Azem happiness provided they do not get in my way.

And why is that.

Because part of their soul was once your dear friend's? You know this is a step up from not considering shards alive at all.

Alive or not, now that we are on a path that doesn’t require direct confrontation, I find myself pitying them more than trying to manipulate them.

Well. Isn't that because you're kind by nature?

Absolutely not. You’ve seen Levity’s memories.

Nice try but that only confirms it.

[ he kisses the tip of his nose before getting up and offering him his hand ]

A peaceful option wasn't possible before, so. It makes sense you didn't have the luxury of feeling for any of the shards.

[You can’t use his trick against him! And he does blush a little before being pulled up.]

I can only blame Cardinal and others then for showing me that perhaps those of a limited lifespan are worth anything.

You don’t count by the way. Immortal as we suspect you are.

I don't mind being the exception, that only means others were able to show you their worth.

[ he won't let his hand go, and instead, he brings it to his lips for a kiss ]

And if it ultimately makes things easier on you, then I'm only happy to see you grow.

Again and again, you've proved yourself my best investment. No other place would suit storing this heart of mine.

[He blushes and tries to hide it with a wave of his hand towards the scenery.]

We were to plant flowers, correct?

We were, and I'm planning on making sure to drag you here to check the progress as they grow, for the record.

[He cups his cheek with his free hand.]

If this place soothes you as much as you say, then how could I refuse the smile it would bring to your face? And inevitably to mine.

[He tugs them through their joined hands.]

Did you have a specific spot in mind?

I was planning on letting you choose that, actually, since I picked the flowers. And I'd like for this to be a thing we decide together every step of the way, silly as it is.

[He leans down to kiss his forehead.]

Then go get the tools required, and I shall find the appropriate spot.

[And he does, after a squeeze, slip his hand from Five's and wanders into the lawn area. The spot he does choose to start is one around the fringes that would appear to an equal amount of sun and shade throughout a day's cycle.]

[ he'll join him shortly after with the required tools, smiling at the choice ]

This one should be perfect.

Go on and make the first dig.

[And he'll take out his phone because apparently scrapbooking is a thing they now do.]

[ that is very cute, and he seems pretty pleased with it, even if he's having to do physical work!! But here he is, making the first dig so they can plant flowers. He will try to put Emet to work shortly after, however, as part of the reason they're doing this is to give him a nice distraction. He won't even make it subtle, with how much he's clearly paying attention to him to make sure he's fine ]

[Just the start! And he will take a commemorate photo of both of them with a mental note to send it to Wildfire. He will wait until after they are done to address the issue, but after they've backed down the earth he'll draw an arcane circular symbol around the seeds just because he likes to show off.

And he will speak as he's drawing.]

It is not affecting me in the waking world. You can stop hovering.

[ oh no. Called out. ]

— I'm not hovering.

You are without a doubt.

[He pushes up on his knees to stand.]

I appreciate the concern, I truly do, but honestly I'm more concerned with the fact that I'm tying you both to a more regular bed time.

Oh how terrible for us to go to sleep to a proper time. I'm sure Lahabrea and I can make due by working and studying in our dreams again for a time. If anything it's an opportunity.

You don't have to worry about it.
