I wanna make y’all hear the waves crashing

[Groans.] Must I? There is still more tinsel...

but I am not someone who likes to wound rather I have a quiet mind

Brother... 💢

It seems nothing has changed.

I know, brother. But I am quite capable of telling friend from foe by myself.

[Yawns.]

...I am sorry. I had not considered how hard that must have been on you, brother.

Is fish considered a nutritional breakfast?

Thank goodness. I have already eaten it all. 💧

[Skips across the grounds, twirling her skirt. She loves the crisp autumn air.]

[Skips over to @CinderedClaws.] I heard it is your nameday today! I know we have not exchanged many words, but I wish to give you this. [A small but many-bloomed bouquet of forget-me-nots is handed to Corian.] Many happy returns. May those you hold dear always cherish you.✨

[Aaand she's sleepy again.]

[A little frown darkens her delicate features. Then she steps forward wordlessly and wraps her arms around his middle, burying her face in his chest.]

I understand completely. It must have taken you back to another time. A darker time. [A little nod, face still pressed against her father's chest.] I never wish to leave you alone like that again.

[Sighs happily.] Time for a relaxing bubble bath...✨
