[Helleborn]

He's cooler than the other side of the pillow, that's for sure. Lavender eyes watch him, catching the flickers and flinches. Their walk was bumpy at first but it levels and smoothes as they withdraw to the secret everglade of her new home.

When he speaks, she listens. Facial features remain stoic, processing the information, storing it away inside the pretty little head. "Chem." The four little letters...one syllable...swirls like wildflower honey and sticks to your tongue. The zorse mare-child then smiles at him, her pale purple lips lifting their edges. He then inquires as to her own name as he is turning and moving. Helle is caught slightly off guard at this and snorts in return at his unwavering nerve.

"Helleborn." Her tones are low as she leans towards him when she matches his movements, contact made briefly as her skin whispers against his.
