Unpleasant is certainly one word for it. Saima wasn't even sure how to describe the feelings that came from that persistent checking, always looking over their shoulders during certain moments. Freezing when they see hints of past memories seem to return again.

The circumstances have changed but some of that tenseness remains deeply ingrained in them.

"Yeah. Yeah.. it's a lot to put it briefly." They muttered with a low tone to their voice.

Is Saima comforted by being able to share this with Nanna? It certainly doesn't seem to hurt any, at the very least.

"I appreciate your support, I really do. I suppose situations like this is what friends are for sometimes. "

[belcvednanna]

"Of course! We cannot be expected to shoulder all of this by ourselves. No one should have to be an island, you know?" She replies softly, extending a hand out to gently squeeze their shoulder. Saima is such a wonderful person, they deserve so much.

She wants to do more, but for now, she knows that being here with them is the most important thing.

"When I feel the darkness creeping in, when the hurt is too much.. You have always been such a light. You have made me feel like I was never alone. So, I always want you to know that I am here for you, as well."

Hel beamed at her lover. So wide a smile, she couldn’t keep her eyes open all the way. She leaned her cheek just a little into Nana’s lips and then every so carefully brought her fingers up to Nana’s neck. Letting the tips of them slowly trail along her skin as she pulled away.

“I would offer my hall as tribute but..” She chuckled sheepishly as her words trailed off. It was a fine hall. Ornate and warm. But there were few people who ever felt entirely comfortable in Éljúðnir, given what it stood for and wherein it stood. No. It wasn’t the place for merriment.

Scooping up the vegetables in a strainer, Hel then brought them to the counter, placed them on a wooden chopping board and began dicing and slicing and peeling them all. She sighed just a little as she went about prepping the vegetables. Ganglati and Ganglöt always made it look so easy. Her hands were clumsy. And the onions made her eyes well. But she didn’t complain and she didn’t make a show of her discomfort to Nana.

“Of course!” She replied eagerly, “I will dance with you and we will have music and stories and food and drink and we will party until the sun and moon rise three times over.”

She gave Nana a slight side eye at her remark. Hel’s instinct was to argue. To say that it was she who was blessed in that way. But she knew it would be an endless back and forth. Neither agreeing or willing to back down. So instead she simply returned the smile and blew a kiss at Nana as she eagerly swept the chopped onions into a bowl and slid it across the counter, far away from her watery eyes.

“And a fine place it would be. But, people can be small minded, I know.” Nanna replied, still smiling as Hel’s words trailed off. She, herself, enjoyed the expanse of her partner’s kingdom. She’d spent more time there than most of their kind, and it was peaceful. And she enjoyed seeing Hel in every aspect and environment of their lives. 

However, she understood the hesitancy to suggest it as a place for joint celebration. 

“That is all I could ever want!” She chimed, continuing to mind the ingredients being added on the stove, sprinkling spices and salt as needed. Together, they would host a gathering their community would speak about for many years to come!

“when you are at my side, I feel as though I can do anything.” She murmured, blushing a bit at the blown kiss as she came to collect the onions. “Thank you for cutting these. I will remember to give you a match stick to put between your teeth next time! It helps.” She kissed her lover’s cheek softly, a hand squeezing her arm in gratitude. 

“My father taught me that trick, when I was very small.”

It's terrible that Nanna seems to be able to relate so well to the feeling that Saima describes. It's enough for them to let out a small sigh, saddened by this apparent commonality.

"Honestly, it can be difficult for me to describe. I wonder if it's some memories really sitting with me poorly. Just the nagging weight of my past really surfacing up.. especially when I see parallels and weird reminders happening on a regular basis."

[belcvednanna]

"...I am sorry, my friend. That is a heavy burden to bear on your own, and I know it must be unpleasant for it to be resurfacing so... insistently." She murmurs gently, expression softened with compassion for Saima.

"I am glad that you feel comfortable confiding this in me, though. You shouldn't have to go through this alone. You have my support, whatever I can do." Nanna adds, a smile tugging at her lips. "You've always been there for me, too."

I finally feel ready to give this blog more attention and hopefully interact with you all! <3 i appreciate the patience

[belcvednanna]

how long have i known you?

@helreginn | meme | accepting

A smile lit up her face, soft, brown waves swaying freely around her face as she turned to face Hel. "A long time, I suppose... and yet, I remember the first time that I laid eyes on you, as clearly as though it were yesterday." Taking her betrothed's hands, she began to sway and spin the two of them around. A joyous dance.

[belcvednanna]

the truth is stranger than my own worst dreams.

@seekesotsibteadmist | meme | accepting

"I know just how you feel, dear friend." Nanna replies, a gentle sort of expression on her face, though there is unmistakable weariness hiding behind it. As though perhaps she is reflecting on her own dreams, and the truth that contrasts them.

"What has been unsettling you? Let me make a pot of tea. We can talk."

[belcvednanna]

helreginn​:

Hel closed her eyes and blindly brought her hands to Nanna’s, finding the mark immediately. She inhaled deeply. And felt a wave of calm as she exhaled, opening her eyes once more to see Nanna as she listened to her words. As was often the case for Hel, she wished she had never spoken. The moment felt sullen where it had been so serene just a heartbeat ago. And any truth she had to tell would only worsen the sorrow Nanna tried to assuade. 

The unfortunate truth of her existence was that she would be alone in the end - At the twilight of all else. That’s simply how death works; Second to arrive, last to leave.

But she couldn’t say that.

Hel wordlessly brought her left hand up to Nanna’s cheek, the same as she had done to Hel. 

“I trust.” she whispered as she leant up to press a lingering kiss on Nanna’s forehead. “I’m sorry I’ve caused you worry.”

She moved back a little to look in Nanna’s eyes. She spoke softly but with much conviction, feigned as some of her words may be, “I am yours, completely. My beloved betrothed. But I do not mean for my irrational worries to be yours too.”

It was not Nanna’s wish to push Hel to apologize. She had nothing to be sorry for. She just did not understand why the other seemed to think that anything would separate them. Nanna could be incredibly stubborn when she set her mind to something, and she had already decided on being at Hel’s side for as long as eternity would allow. “No, you do not need to apologize, my love. I merely want to make myself clear.” She kissed her jaw gently, moving a hand to caress the back of her head. “We are bound to one another in love, and promise. I would never doubt that. And part of that is that, if you are worrying, you may share it with me, and perhaps I can lighten your load somewhat.” She smiled at the hand still resting on her cheek, moving her other hand to squeeze over it.

their fingers intertwined once again, Nanna smiled. “let us do something joyful!”

[belcvednanna]
