we feel misfortunes deep and keen

[dark_light]

Pensive cuddling goes on a long time.

Path nudges against Kas occasionally, almost like he's testing over and over to see if it hurts, but he never flinches, so it must not.

Comments

"Yes. But we don't know what else there was to go by. We have never been legendary and extremely missing before."

[telesonorous]

"For a while we didn't even know the Shade-Dreamer and our secret mom were the same person," says Kalavar.

"When did you find out?"

[telesonorous]

"After we saw the aquarium," she recalls. "Ranata was flying us to Charlie's house and we saw a billboard with Isabella's name on it."

[dark_light]

"And you noticed the name matched and asked?" guesses Path. "Or Ranata just chose then to tell you?"

[telesonorous]

"Yeah, we noticed."

[dark_light]

"What do you know about us? What did Ranata and Kas say?"

[telesonorous]

"I don't know," says Kalavar. "Things. They talked about you sometimes. They missed you a lot."

[dark_light]

Path's wings shush against his sides. "We knew time might be different. We didn't know it was going to be this different."

Petaal nuzzles him.

[dark_light]

Nuzzles. "We missed you too, though," he murmurs.

[telesonorous]

"Aww," says Kalavar.
