I thought Cosmo was the scholar, but fiiine, teach, you got it.
Mm, well I also mean you don't have to be here with me right now, so I appreciate it. You say you were not a great parent, maybe that's true. I don't know the whole of your life and what you've done. [She waits a moment before kissing his cheek gently]
I was also an expert in my field of study though no one has as much breadth as our dear Speaker.
[Luckily she is really tall so he doesn't have to lean down too much. Not that he isn't always slouching. Though he can't help but give a snort.]
I have no desire for children. And if you thought what your father did was unbecoming, I'm quite certain I've committed worse. I can be rather tenacious if the mood strikes.
[She looks tremendously happy and serene at the same time. It's an odd juxtaposition, not unlike how it's possible for the words to be weightless and heavy at the same time.
But Emet's words have a sombre air around them and she's brought back down to earth.]
Mm. I can't say that it's something everyone wants to hear but it's something I want to be able to say to some more people.

[He shakes his head.]
Kind, but my path is much easier. I have nothing to lose, so there is only opportunity abound.

But you've been to me, so thank you...Father.

[But then he pets her head in return.]
But I will accept wayward friends.
no subject
[oh yay headpats she blushes a little.]
Worse like what?
no subject
[He taps his chin in thought.]
Pit them against each other from a throne that would not survive their generation. Make them go mad. Use them as a pawn in my schemes.
And as much as I adore everyone on BARiTONES, you all are pieces on the board to be moved. Your goals and mine simply align currently.
no subject
But for the rest.]
We'll see about that.

Besides, if you do decide to be with Levity, I have no doubts that you will take care of him in your own way. Whatever path you choose.
no subject
[but she stares ahead at the mention of Levity.]
...I managed to tell him, you know. And someone else too. [She frowns mildly.]
no subject
[He pauses.]
Tell him what?
no subject
[She pauses.]
That I love him.
no subject
[He kisses the top of her head.]
It is hard at times, isn't it? When you are not used to it. When the words seem to be weightless yet so heavy at the same time.
I am glad you are taking the opportunity to say it now before it is too late.

[She looks at him.]
So, I love you.
no subject
[He jests as he takes her hands and then kisses the top of her head.]
I love you as well, Lily. And wish you nothing by confidence and contentment as you puzzle through the choices before you.
no subject
[oh but hearing that...well. time for tears]

If you do get married to Levity, you are going to put him in a dress, correct?
no subject
Oh, certainly. He'd look so darling in a dress~! Not sure what else we could do though....

...I want him to have a full and happy life. He can't have that if he marries me.
no subject
He might seem rather lacking in abilities here, but his skills nearly match my own. He is a powerful mage in his own right and brilliant besides.
What is it exactly that you are facing?
