Beyza
With Ryatah, she is filled with both affection and an ease that tells her she can be herself - no monitoring her movements and blinks - and while she might have assumed these things would clash, they find an equilibrium.
So though her eyes do not blink, there is a warm-enough smile in them that helps to soften her would-be blunt response to Ryatah being surprised over how much she missed Hyaline. “That’s not so surprising.” Her gaze drifts up momentarily, follows Ryatah’s and traces the peaks of the mountains around them.
“It was your home amidst all the chaos, was it not? Through eclipses and death and birth.” And whatever else her mother might have lived through - because of course Beyza only knows pieces. She assumed it was normal to feel an attachment to a place where you lived once - despite the fact that she had done her best to purge herself of all sentimentality towards Pangea or Ischia. They were simply places to her, they held no magic - or at least none she wished to revisit.
She wanted something different now, even if she was still working out just what that was exactly.
“I can’t imagine how strange it would be to somewhere that is somehow both the Dale and Hyaline.” Beqanna always seemed to be in flux, but in the history that she has experienced that must be a new one.
“Ischia is gone so I’ve actually been thinking of living here instead. But maybe that is just your blood in my veins.” She says and her grin brightens a little more at the half-jest as her bright eyes meet Ryatah's once more.
