I kept thinking if I could just tell someone I was lonely and scared, maybe that would make it easier. There was never such a person, though. It got easier eventually.
[ props her chin against his chest to look at him; there's a natural tension to her shoulders that's more or less always there, especially in public like this, but she sort of sags into him with some vague air of exhaustion she probably doesn't actually intend to show. Clearly comfortable, though, her ears slowly perking in attention towards him. ]

Re: tag-ins (moretta)
There weren't. Not until the boat.
But now... yeah. And I have you back, too.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
[ thunks her head against his chest.
And she's quiet for a long moment, with just a slight sniffle, before she speaks again. A tiny bit sulky. ]
... m'gonna bite you again. Since you healed it.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
... How come.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
[ indignant, but after a brief pause, her face warm but fortunately hidden. ]
... I liked seeing it. On you, and Vincent. Brocade let me do it, too. It's nice, seeing someone's-- mine. Even if it's not... y'know.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
Okay.
Just be gentle with me. I'm very delicate.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
[ huffs.
...
but curls her arms around him again to hug. sorry it's clinging in public hours. ]
... Are you-- okay? With all this.
[ the festival, she means. but also maybe the biting but he's already agreed to that so it's too late. ]
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
I dunno, to be honest. But right at this exact second, I feel... content?

Re: tag-ins (moretta)
Not exactly.
Or, more like-- I don't regret seeing the things I've seen, if they help me understand others better. Even if those things are painful.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
... I just felt bad about the ones I saw, mostly. Seeing things nobody would have given me willingly. I don't regret it either, but...
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
... I saw some of yours.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
She looks a bit uncomfortable, but just buries her face in his shirt again. ]
... Well, it's-- fine, isn't it? It isn't like I have anything to hide from you... and you were there for most of it.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
Is it fine? Only you can tell me that.
Re: tag-ins (moretta)
... Do you regret seeing stuff from me?
