[Auriel is now behind them, a place they’ll never see again, but the experiences there are… forever. Sciel’s attention goes back to hair, still smiling.]
Nothing serious, though, so no one’s coming for dinner any time soon.
[Hard to say, but she has to say something. Her shoulders rise and fall in a shrug.]
Something where I could imagine a future together. That cuts most people here out, doesn’t it? Unless they have no intention of going back to their own world.
no subject
Good enough. Not sure that'll trouble me, but I'll take it.

[ 😇 ]

Hmm! Maybe I should start bringing my dates home so you have more opportunities to be sassy and rude!
no subject
Oooh, that would be very, very bold of you. I would have so much fun.
no subject
[She is under no circumstances doing this.]
no subject
[Maelle smiles innocently.]
Any good dates, lately? I might be nicer to them.

[You opened this can of worms, Sciel. Maelle may not have any interest in relationships herself, but she sure will be nosy about others.]

no subject
[Things in Sciel's grasp, once. She had some of what people dream of with what little time alotted to them.]
Getting old together?
no subject
[Maybe not nearly as much as she had the moment she’d lost it, but she had.]
I’d be okay if it never happened, of course. But it’d be nice.
no subject
[Even if she's not into Gustave! Maelle has it on pretty good authority he's the best family.]
I can draft up adoption paperwork if you want. For us to sign, not you.
[Sciel can be adopted.]
no subject
[She sets the scissors aside for a moment to wrap her arms around Maelle's neck and hug her from behind.]
no subject
Good. If you forget, I'll have to go the paperwork route. I'd rather not have to do all that thinking.
no subject
[She presses a firm kiss to the top of Maelle’s head and squeezes her so, so tight.]
no subject
[What a way to go, lovingly crushed in a hug. Maelle laughs.]
no subject
no subject
[Please, being kept forever is heaven. It's all she wants.]
no subject
[They’d shared Sophie for a long time, after all.]
Now! How short are we cutting your fringe, again? Did we decide?
no subject
[She holds up her index fingers to her cheekbones.]
Do you think that will look okay? Or no?
no subject
[Partly because it is almost the same as she’s worn for ages, but an easy fix, no doubt.]
Plus you’ll be able to style it different ways, at that length.
no subject
[She may play around with fashion a little more here, dabble in make up thanks to Sophie, but hair is still beyond her.]
no subject
[Says the woman who usually starts the day with a decently arranged bun and ends it with her hair practically loose.]
no subject
[Concentrated weight and all that.]
Sophie curled my hair but I can't imagine sitting down and doing that every day.
no subject
[She runs her fingers through Maelle’s hair and sections it into two. She’ll pull the rest back first, and then tackle the bangs.]
