Please keep him company. He was trying so hard to pretend none of this was happening and in a terrible mood.

But that is a problem for a later time. You wanted my undivided attention and here I am to give it to you.

[Spinning Emet around a bit! And definitely looking smug.]

Alright, then, I'll focus entirely on the now~ In truth, I have something for you. I thought it might make a good gift for... for the time we'll need to spend apart.

[Annnd he's pulling out a small box out of his pocket, exactly the kind of velvet-lined box you'd keep jewelry in. And the gift is just that: a small pendant with the same color and sparkle as Hyth's soul. The tiny sparkles seem to shift, too, to better look like a piece of something living. How does it work? Fin magics.]

[He's visibly taken back as he holds the box. He didn't have anything from their shared home, from Amaurot after the Sundering. All he was left with were broken ruins and the memories in his head he furiously tried to store into memory crystals.

And as much as he wish he didn't, he had started to forget the color of his soul.]

It's beautiful.

Thank you.

[It's not that he had any doubt Emet would love it, but he still looks happy at the reception. Reaching out to gently stroke the side of his face.]

I thought it would make a fine gift. I would give you a true piece of myself, if I could... but without our true powers it would be rather grisly! So an imitation it is. And hopefully a reminder that I will always stay by your side, Hades. Always.

[He puts it on a tucks it under his shirt.]

Will you promise me then? To give me a true piece when you are able.

[He's so pleased with it! Stepping a little closer.]

... Of course. And can I hope you would do the same for me?

Of course. If you aren't worried about a bit of Primal in there as well.

Well, it's not as though my own is untouched.

I simply wouldn't want it to be a surprise.

And you'll take care of my mask for me, won't you?

Of course. Even if you don't wear it again... Which would probably be a shame, but I feel like your younger self would disapprove of your current work ethic anyway.

I think my work ethic will be the least of his worries.
