    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura


    [private]  will a gentleness come?

    It occurs to him that, perhaps, not everyone knows what a city is.  Of course, how ignorant of him.  He would apologize for his fumble, but Oceane does not seem to linger on this for long.  At least in his eyes.

    Soran returns her whimsical smile with a much more subdued one.  "Yes, there was all manner of others, no day was like the other due to that."  And yet, he had still found the place small and suffocating after some time.  His small smile fades away.

    Steam rises, and Soran forgets once more.  Just as Oceane stops, so does Soran at her side.  Finding a hot spring here is surprising to him, and he silently wonders if this is a place others in Loess come to when the chill finally seeps into their bones.  His chin tilts down in thought but he feels her warm smile and it draws his blue eyes back to her.  

    Her next question is predictable, and there is no reason to try and not answer it.  However, he doesn't really know.

    He hums, looking back towards the hot springs and then he wonders.

    The best course of action would be to find somewhere to settle down, a nice quiet place that he can familiarize himself and just... call home?  The concept of such a place seems foreign and just for a moment, he admits to himself that he does miss the little child.  The young, carefree smile that greeted him and the press of their forehead against his leg as they forced him onto wherever it is the child wanted to go.

    Should he stay here?  He had planned not too long ago to hopefully learn all he could, didn't that make it sound like he was going to stay?  However, did he want to?

    He looks back to her, cool blue meeting bright honey, "I don't know, I had planned to maybe look around a little more but..."  his eyes drift away, thoughtful,  "What would you do?"  He asks, genuinely curious.  Then, another thought,  "Why did you decide to stay?"
