In that moment they shared she had shown him the darkness that haunted her and he had shown her the goodness inside him. They were one in the same really. Having chose different ways of coping with their misfortunes. She had chosen the light while he the darkness. Either of them stepping on the shaky boundaries of each. Her only hope was that he had a brief moment of relief as she had from their twisted world's...
Her past had risen and fallen, just as her wing had. The strength in her heart pushed the darkness away as she smiled comforted by his strong embrace. She could feel his tension and then it faded as she groomed the edge of his light and dark hide. Tracing the very line between the world's they lived. They don't make you any less beautiful...

Gold flecked eyes peered into his as she spoke gently, "It was nice seeing you again. I'd offer you my homeland but I don't really have one." Her eyes shifted downwards as she wasn't sure of herself or what to say. "Maybe we will meet again, in time," her eyes meeting his again, hopeful. "My offer still stands... If you ever decide you need a friend," her final words sincere. She smiled this time with her eyes. The brightness they had had, returning once more...
