But there's also a part of me that's constantly terrified of losing them. Or worse... that my feelings may be a burden to them, if they can't return them. So... it's okay, even if I'm the only one who knows the depths of those feelings-- or if they never feel the same way. I'm just happy if I can be with them.
...which is probably part of a bad habit of mine. But--
[She smiles.]
When you do find that person... you should stay by their side. Even if it's painful sometimes. As long as you're with them... I'm sure you won't regret it.
[Serenity just. Presses her forehead to Lily's, eyes squeezed tightly shut. There are tears at the corner of her eyes, but she's trying not to. Lifting her hands, she cups the woman's face in her hands, holding her fiercely.]
And you shine more brightly than any star in the sky.
[Opening her eyes, she looks directly into Lily's. They're misty and emotional-- and full of love.]
I can't begin to explain just how precious your love is to me. Or how much I love you. Even I don't know just what the limit of that love is yet. But I want to be with you every day... until I find out just how much that is.
[She leans in and presses her lips to Lily's, ever so softly at first, then with an increasing passion. All the different facets of her love poured into that kiss; the sweetness, the desire, the admiration... the way she trusts her with her heart completely, letting herself be completely honest and vulnerable in her arms.]
[Oh noooo, Lindi crying makes her cry she doesn't know what to do with this, all this, it still does not feel real to her? That someone could say they love her and mean it is surreal.
Lily holds the woman in her arms tighter, closer, like the space between then is suddenly very abhorrent and her own eyes reflect the deep, deep well of her own love, fondness, and admiration.]
I will cherish your feelings always. They're worth more than the most precious gems.
[Lily kisses her back with that same softness, letting Lindi set the pace but when she wants more, she deepens it in kind.]
[Despite herself, she lets herself drown in it for a good long while. The other woman's warmth fills her whole body. But even though a part of her is tempted and would love to stay with her... she knows that Lily has a particular fondness for these types of games and she'd want to win. Which isn't something she can do if she keeps her here all night.]
I don't want to keep you too long. You have a lot of lovely other people to meet if you want to take the prize~
[Serenity does the same, gently sucking on the tip. There's definitely a warm spice she can feel on her tongue. More than that-- ah. There's a somewhat familiar feeling she can't quite place.]
[ Clasping her hand, and bringing it to her lips to kiss it. ]
I have a car now, actually. There's a lot of wonderful things in this city to see. And I'd like the chance to learn more about you, if that's okay. You're interesting.
Really? That'll be nice, for the winter. And of course-- I don't talk about myself much but... I understand a lot more than I did for a while. It would be nice to get to know you better too.
There's no slowness or reservation on their part - their tail wags as they press eagerly into the kiss, arms wrapping around Serenity to pull her close. ]
[As she's pulled in, she slips her arms around their neck. As slow as she started; it's too easy to unlock that part of her that's oh so eager to give back, wanting to express in every way how much she loves them.]
[ She's wondering the same thing. Luckily she has enough lowered inhibitions to go for it, even if she can't keep her cheeks from warming up. ]
I know we've already before, but--it was a little different last time given everything. Is it okay if.... that is, properly, I'd like to know if you wouldn't mind if I kissed you again.

From what I can tell, you seem to be well-liked.
no subject
I am working on it...
[That much is true.]
But that's still something I can say with confidence. Even if it's only because I've learned that it's okay to be selfish sometimes.

Ren
[She picks up one of her own and lifts it-- but not quite to her lips yet.]
How about we both do it at the same time?
Re: Ren
[When she’s ready, she puts her candy in her mouth at the same time as Serenity.]
Re: Ren
...it's strange, but-- not bad.
Re: Ren
[There was something else too, something that immediately made her feel embarrassed due to the feelings it evoked.]
No, I don't think it's bad either.
[It did make her throat feel dry, once she's completely eaten the candy. Hm.]

I kept things inside for quite a while... it's good to open up. To be able to talk to someone.
