IC Inbox - Snakes on Serpentine Horizon

[It just goes to a beep.]

If you're that confident why not put it to the test with me then?

Whether they have the power to do lasting damage or not, do you think I can bear seeing you harmed so? Your faith in my strength is flattering.

Weren't you the one that always remarked I was an 'endless fountain' of aether. The difference is not comparable.

[He sighs leaning into his shoulder.]

You are simply setting yourself up for heart ache.

Not if you let me help you win.

But it is hardly like I'm trying to be hurt, quite the opposite.

[He slides his fingers in Emet's hair, kissing his temple.]

I'm just telling you what is impossible for me to bear. Would you like me to pretend otherwise?

Yet I am not him, Hythlodaeus. Not that I would not protect you any less, but this fact remains true.

Do you think I'll have any easier time seeing your soul come to harm? The same color, the same beauty that draws me inevitably.

I lost him. Shall I be fine losing you as well, when I've only just found you? I think not. Even if I wished to be, it's not possible.
