I know you are not human. But I am still a faerie, and I do not wish to sever all ties to my people. No matter how cruel their treatment seems to your eyes.
[ it's a difficult thing to explain. lynx feels like the words don't exist to fully describe what it's like to be fae, although perhaps rune would understand it more easily than a human. but more easily still does not mean easy. ]
Would I have seen you again? [ slowly, he loosens his grip on rune's hand, looking up at him despite the ache behind his eyes. ] If you had not fallen right into my lap, so to speak, would you have come to me? Tell me the truth.
rune doesn't care for it, but there's very little he actually cares for. and maybe he doesn't really understand the cruelty for what it is even if he comprehends why. it's a stupid punishment. then again, rune's also meant to suffer, and it's why he tries his best to keep his distance. ]
I didn't want to leave you. [ which isn't an answer, but he's getting there. his expression thins, eyes narrowed at his temple and the stained fall of lynx's hair. ] So, yes, I would have come to you. There's no one else.
[ there's ciro, always, but that's still too much. admitting that is too much. ]
