Cosmos
Out of the storm comes the glowing brilliance of an old friend. The blood on Cosmos’ lips spreads across her teeth when she smiles, a tomboyish addition to a brightly feminine girl. She recalls their time in the Playground, her failed quest, his scent on the wind when she wanders the border. He is a part of a much more innocent time, but his growing form suggests he may be a part of her future, as well.
Cosmos.
Hesitant rain splatters her face when she leans into the sound of his voice. The way his utterance twists around her name is so pleasant to her ears she is practically purring by the time the last syllable comes out. White and golds strands fall into her lavender eye when she steps closer, sweet smile welcoming his gaze as it reflects her brilliant pink.
The first twinges of romance come strange. For most of Cos’ life there was Jude, Myrkari, and Magnus. Tephra is a distant memory, now, but she finds she misses it as her childhood crush circles back. Pangea and Yidhra still consume her, spin webs she is forever caught in, but this brief glimpse of youth through her adulterated veil reveals the innocence she possesses. Namely, the way her heart trips at Aegean’s touch, the way a gentle laugh escapes at the sight of her blood on his lips.
The space between them closes with a whoosh when the pegasus presses her cheek to the impossible boy’s. A kiss to the spot where his cheek meets his neck follows, then yet another pleased laugh.
“Oh, Aegean, you have no idea how good it is to see you,” she murmurs on an exhale, more fact than excitement. It is the truth - she needs company and his kindred spirit will do just the trick. She pulls back with a sincere grin, then gestures to the pale gray beyond him.
“Would you mind showing me what the beach looks like in the rain?” Cos begins to walk in the direction of the cove that gives this land its namesake, casting a mismatched gaze to her companion as she does.
“I’m glad you found me today.”
