"I don't think I have a very good handle on my emotions. But I like you too... I think." Wynn chuckled. "Thanks. I don't either, I think. I just spent decades without enough soul to feel this kind of thing. It's strange, being whole. Or mostly, at this point." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I mean, I'm not one for those idiot lovers who are so obsessed with each other that they both get killed. Romance is all and good, but survival should come first. Right now that means finding a way to kill Malum, for your sake if nothing else."

There would be chunks of Stacis, bit it might be dangerous to be out in interdimensional space for do long trying to retrieve it. Could be interesting. Anyway, Lerac is going to keep being emotionally confused. "Why are you nervous when you're close to me?" Lerac asked curiously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't look like anything specifically because there is nothing physical there, but some people see or experience things depending. "Interesting. I think it just makes me happy.

A leveled-up human and a disowned fairy, neither of whom have any idea of what they're doing." The runner stopped in a flat grassy plain, like an infinite golf course in all directions. Snuffle barked and wagged her tail, then began spinning in circles. Wynn frowned and picked her up, reading data from her duel disk. "Dang it.

If you really need me to stay, maybe I can convince Ashli, but... I promise I'll be careful, okay? I wouldn't do that to you again." Quote I like the idea. It’ll speed some things up a bit. Tiernan hurried toward them, slowing when he saw TAAron. “Evalyn, I…” His eyes flicked between them. “Wanted to… make sure…you’re okay.” Concerned, he noticed her distress. In a flash of brilliance, she pressed her hand over her mouth. “I’m fine. It’s just… my brother… he’s dead.” Tears came to her eyes, but mostly fuled by the idea of TAArom leaving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
