    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    She touches him, and it is the first time anyone has touched him in over a year. He presses into the simple gesture, the calming sensation it brings him overriding the shame that could have come from this need. 

    He may be discovering that he was immortal, but he still needed touch, he still neede to feel like someone cared. 

    She draws away, and his mismatched gaze returns to her dark eyes as they search him.  She speaks again and it is not to voice her own complaints, because surely there were many charges she could level against him, but to advocate for her son and the son of Kolera.  

    "You're right," he says, wondering if it is too late for him to be apart of his boy's lives. But of course she was right, he had to try. 

    Braver now, her runs his muzzle under her jaw for a moment more. He thinks back to the mare he had first swum in the ocean with years ago, and he misses her. The day of laughing and relaxed wandering they had shared together had show him another side of himself.

    "Amore," he says as he draws away so that she will not mistake his intentions. He smiles again, hoping that maybe together they can find their stride once again. "Let's get cleaned up, Tephra needs us at our best."

    @[Amorette] Maybe we can wrap this up and we can start a new one?
