[ It was so strange, not knowing what to do. Lily liked to think she was smart enough to always know the best course of action, but this experience - not least of all the parts involving Eleven - had shown her how mistaken she was. ]
Even though I stick my foot in my mouth regularly? You must like me quite a bit then, I do it often.
Important to me? I suppose the people in it are the most important. Horace and my parents of course. My sister too, though she isn't the most pleasant person in the world, she's still my big sister.
[The concept is a strange one, imagining wagon wheels on a pair of shoes. It sounds more dangerous than anything. But the importance pales to Lily's concern. He brushes a kiss to her temple]
I know. It's only a selfish wish of mine that you have something to return with.
[ That he was at all concerned with getting her something in return was incredibly sweet. She was glad for the way they were laying, it meant he wouldn't see how red her face had gone again. ]
Your selfish wishes aren't very selfish you know.
[ She turned her head upward, catching the underside of his chin with a kiss. ]
And you seem to think I won't take my flower back with me.

Oh. Nor do I?
[ Uncertain what she ought to say or do she frowned, her gaze drifting downward. ]
I'm sorry too, I'm still not used to having– [ Looking back up at him she squinted as she reached for the right words. ] a friend like you.

Everything has been nice. I'm glad for all of it- for you.

no subject
I do. I think.. that we might be rather well-suited actually.
no subject
[ Letting him momentarily distract her with a kiss Lily leaned back to look over his face skeptically.]
Because you've always had a soft spot for poorly timed remarks and I'm a sucker for a noble bloke with pretty eyes?
no subject
You're lovely. Compassionate and bold.. Anyone would be lucky to have your favor.
no subject
Oh hush your face.
no subject
You asked.
no subject
[ Because it was easier to turn it around on him than it was to take a compliment, plus it was all quite true. ]
no subject
I'm not as bold, but I did mention we're well-suited.
no subject
I'm the big mouth to your foresight?
no subject
I wouldn't say I have much foresight.. [He sighs, content] But I suppose I won't argue if you think so well of me.
no subject
[ She lifted her chin enough to rest her head on his shoulder. ]
As long as you don't think we should not have done this. I don't want you to regret anything.
no subject
..I only regret how much pain it's going to cause you. But if you're happy with me like this, then I want to be able to continue to give that to you.
no subject
[ Rolling onto her side, she wrapped her arm around him and hugged him closer. ]
There's nothing to regret, at least for me. I'm glad to have known you well enough to miss you like I will when we go.
no subject
I'll try. ..Find something you can take home with you as a pleasant reminder, as you've given me.
no subject
I know I'll go with plenty of things to remember, regardless - but for the sake of being properly courted I wouldn't refuse anything you gave me.
no subject
Is there anything particularly important to you from your world?
no subject
[ She tilted her head back to look at him. ]
What brings this on?
no subject
You made me a gift knowing Yggdrasil was important to me. But I'll give the matter more thought. I'm sure there's something..
no subject
[ She would also bet money he has no idea what rollerskates were. ]
no subject
I can't say as I'm familiar.
no subject
[ Her's had glitter on them, but one confusing concept at a time. ]
El I hope you know I don't expect you to go to any trouble for me. If we make each other happy that's enough.
no subject
I know. It's only a selfish wish of mine that you have something to return with.
no subject
Your selfish wishes aren't very selfish you know.
[ She turned her head upward, catching the underside of his chin with a kiss. ]
And you seem to think I won't take my flower back with me.
