[ Watching him recline Lily toyed absently with a flower, puffing out a laugh at the thought of the Beacon not working. ]

It wasn't, was it?

[ With a sigh she stretched out next to him on the ground, settling herself against him comfortably. ]

Don't tell anyone, but I'm not in a rush to get back.

[ Lily looked over his face raising her eyebrows as she fought the flush creeping up the back of her neck. ]

Like the plants, of course.

[ She lifted her hand and brushed his cheek with her fingers. ]

You and your rare flowers.

They're the best part of the city if you ask me.

[ Humming happily Lily's hand lifted from his cheek to tug the front of his garment, leaning up to catch him in a kiss before he made her any more flustered than he already had. ]

[ Letting her forehead rest against his briefly, she reached out, picking a flower and sticking it behind his ear before she leaned back against the ground, propping herself up on an elbow. ]

Are you sure you're not a secret agent of the city, tasked with changing my mind about wanting that beacon activated? You're doing a brilliant job.

I'm leaving the political part of it to the experts.

[ Like Moran.

Not expecting him to want to linger if a way home was presented, Lily's eyebrows rose in surprise, humming in consideration as she looked back down towards the grass. Pinching a tiny white clover bud free she rolled it in her palm thoughtfully.
]

You don't want to leave yet?

[ Tossing the bud at the ground it bounced like a rubber ball, ricocheting lightly around the space they lay in before rolling slowly to a halt. ]

Nor do I. I don't want to go to war.

[ A smile tugged at her lips and she reached up to absently push back a few strands of El's hair. ]

It's the right thing to do, I just wish it wasn't over something as stupid as blood purity.

Sort of like royalty, in a way - or at least the important families would like you to think. Purists believe that the children of non-magical people, or of a magical person and a regular person are inferior and shouldn't be entitled to the same quality of life they have.

[ The thought was as stupid now as it had been the first time she heard it, and she looked as though the idea were revolting. ]

Both my parents are non-magical, I've got a bit of an opinion on the matter, you might say.

There already is. One particularly horrible wizard has been gathering followers for years, adults, students at the school I went to. My friend.

[ Best not to dwell on that particularly nasty wound though. ]

They've been attacking people like me and their families for the last few years now. People go missing and turn up dead. It's said they mean to overthrow the Ministry and put a new order in its place, where magical kind is superior to all else.

I don't either.

[ The troubled look on her face grew a bit darker, watching the way his trying to work it out in his mind seemed to play across his expression in vivid detail. ]

He's an evil man, and nothing he says is true or right, but powerful terrible people believe him anyway.

[ Moving along with him as he pulled her closer she draped an arm around his shoulders, humming in appreciation. ]

You've got so much I don't think you could stop yourself from sharing if you tried.

[ That he was so obviously a kind and gentle sort of soul had made itself apparent within their first conversations. It was difficult to spend time with El and not feel better for it in some way. ]

I never thought of it that way. Wait, come here.

[ Nudging his shoulder lightly Lily urged Eleven to lay back so she could settle against him, half draped with one arm over his chest and the other propped on the ground so she could rest her chin on her hand. ]

It's a bit romantic, isn't it? Getting to enjoy each other's glow even though it's not something we're meant to experience. It makes me feel rather lucky.

I'm glad to hear it. I didn't expect to feel at ease here no matter what happened.

[ Leaning down she kissed his temple lightly. ]

Rather lucky you dropped your glove.
