wonder, wonder what you might do
you can't simply hide our dream in the blue
The maiden welcomed his touch, warm, familiar, and foreign all at the same time. Frost had to hold herself back from leaning in farther, from exploring how his body had aged. She shoved these thoughts away, of course, as doing such would be inappropriate. They weren't children anymore, they were strangers now, weren't they? (But isn't that what entices you about him, Frost? How far away he always was, and how close he is now? Don't you wish to know the feeling of his scars under your lips, take a dip in those silver pools, forget the rules?)

She abstained, and pulled her tiara away, hoping her long, batting lashes would hide how reluctant she had been to leave the warmth of his soft skin. She let her companion have the spotlight, smiling (desperately trying to hide your libido behind enticed emeralds). Altair grunted a greeting to the kite, ears pricked, captivated by the unfamiliar avian. The Haruspex offered a dip of her tiara to the kite before turning her emeralds back to the stallion.

"It's wonderful to see you again Frost." Oh, her cheeks felt hot. Wonderful, he said, wonderful. She had paid so little attention the red in her youth, for she had spent those days dreaming of a moon kissed colt, and paid little attention to his red half-brother. Roux was younger than herself, of course, which had contributed to her overlooking him, but seasons mattered so little as adults; they had to be the same age now.

Her emeralds left the red, flicking to the water, gleaming in the starlight, quietly reminiscing on her youth. She didn't remain that way for long, flicking her mossy gaze back to Roux, her ears pressed forward, yearning to hear of his life, praying he would say it was happy so she would have something to smile about.

Frost's chest fell a bit, aching quietly, for he sounded as if his life had been engulfed in lost times as well. But it was getting better, he said, he was going to find purpose, she assumed. She was similar in that perspective, lost, but finding her way. "I'm so happy for you," She offered quietly, her throat full of pleasant grief.

Her eyes brightened a bit as he continued to speak, smiling and shaking her head at his question. Little ones? No, she had none (she lacked any family at all). Memories of her knight Carnesir welled up in her throat, tasting sour and of hot remorse. She tried to not look disheartened, to hide the truth (hide, hide, hide, that's all you do).

"I've been well, I was promoted to Haruspex. It's a lonely way of life, I suppose, so no little ones," She laughed half-heartedly, her chime far duller than it had been before. Her eyes flicked to the ground, to their cloven hooves, opening her mouth, considering her words, mulling them over and tasting how they might feel falling from her lips. "What about you?" She gushed, her eyes flicking back up, glimmering as they found his, "Any little ones accompanying you to the Edge?" Say no, her heart whispered.
