[open] the same old pipe dream

[Jesper]

Fuzzy ears catch her melancholy tone, caught between that burdened smile. The black steed notes that her focus shifts to an inner musing so, he stands, patiently, in silence. Her return to their conversation does not skip a beat. Jesper offers a soft smile in acknowledgement of her correct guess. That smile grows as she finds amusement in her own joke. The male chimes in at this point, "Who says I am only visiting? I mean, I could stay." He allows his sky blue gaze to meet hers before he adds, in a tone that is light and playful, "Would you like me to stay?"

Her tone matches her frown. Jesper wants to reassure her though, there is no predicting what future Beqanna holds for Pangea. The fox-shifter listens to the next set of words she emits before addressing her question. "I do, some. Though, I have come to terms with my agelessness. I am going to see many versions of Beqanna. Thankfully, I have some tricks left." He allows silence to fill the space between them. Jesper very much loved this conversation though, he finds himself growing bored with just standing here. He addresses her once again. "@ margot, would you mind showing me the lay of the land?"
