[He seems relieved that she didn't reject the proposition, a smile in his voice now.]
Of course. I've thought about it before, and... in truth, I believe Amaurot would be a great place for you. You are hardworking and curious, and I think you could really bloom there.
[She hasn't felt a kind of happiness like this before. Knowing that someone thought of her being a part of their life after all this was over. Serenity has to wipe her eyes again, clean up her face before she looks up at him again. She's well and truly smitten by how sweet and wonderful he is.]
[He smiles happily, leaning back but still hugging Serenity close - so that she can halfway rest on his chest. Enjoy boyfriend titty.]
Of course. I think you would enjoy helping me with my work, though it can get quite dull at times. Or perhaps you could become a teacher, or a caretaker?
[Serenity places her hands on her arms, leaning back into him. Boyfriend titty soft and warm... she just closes her eyes and listens to his voice.]
...please-- I can't possibly imagine anything with you being dull. [Said with nothing but fondness. But her voice softens considerably after.] Being able to spend my days working close to someone I love... feels like a dream. I don't know if I'd be of much help to you, but-- just thinking about it... it sounds so wonderful.
[Boyfriend titty soft and warm! Certified soft and warm too because he's an archer he got the tits.]
Oh, I am certain you would be of great help. You are thorough and thoughtful, responsible and attentive to details but able to compromise and find fresh solutions, too! All ideal qualities for workers of our Bureau.
[He smiles, slowly petting her arm.]
By "boring" I mostly mean that a lot of it is about doing paperwork. A lot of it.
And I happen to be quite good at reminding people to take a break when they need it.
[Levity chuckles softly - though it's mostly a joke, there's still room for genuinely being worried about Serenity overcommitting to the work.
The question, meanwhile, is not unexpected, if still a little sad. But fortunately he does have an answer to it. Levity smiles again, cupping her cheek gently.]
Of course. Why wouldn't I? I want to see you happy, Renny. I want you to shine as brightly as I know you can.
I... well-- of course I hoped, but... I didn't want to assume. That... you don't have something going on back home. Or that it wouldn't make things difficult for you. But... if I go with you, I... I'd want it to be with you. As... well... a partner. Or um... something... like that...
[Watch her just blush and stutter all over herself trying to say what she wants to say.]
[... oh. He blushes himself, but fortunately Serenity is so adorable tripping over her own words (and flustered enough for the both of them) that he doesn't have it in him to be too embarrassed. Instead, Levity smiles, taking her hand to press a kiss to her fingers, eyes flickering back to her mischievously.]
Hmmm? It is, in fact, quite common for bonded to work together.
["Bonded" is the key word here, and he's curious to see if she'll pick up on it. He's a gremlin, why do you like him]

If you're there then-- I'm sure I'd love it.

Re: day 426, after she gets back from graduation
Well... I just so happen to be pretty good at paperwork.
[She looks up, into his eyes. And when she speaks again, her voice is much softer.]
But I mean-- do you... do you really want to spend the rest of your future with me?

Re: day 426, after she gets back from graduation
Bonded. She has no way to be sure it means what she thinks it does. Doesn't stop her from thinking it. Or her heart beating wildly.]
Bonded...? Us? I... don't know the specifics but I like the sound of it. I think I'd like that-- a lot.
[If she wasn't allowed to like gremlins she could not love either him or Lily and that is not a world she wants to live in okay]
