Silver eyes gaze distantly. Already, she is drifting, further and further. Time became less important, she almost could feel herself pushing closer to the point of no return--an event horizon. Once there, she won’t come back for a long while and a part of her almost reached for it until she blinked.
A smile, calm and soothing like the ocean. He never worries when she became like this, he simple waited for her. Her chest tighten at the thought. Nobody should wait for her. Not when time wasn’t a concept, not when she couldn’t return without spending too long somewhere else.
It’s a rare display of affection as she pressed her face into his shoulder, closing the distance between them. She breathed in his scent and once again, she is reminded of the sea. Eyes close and here, she can feel a little piece of home or what was the closest thing to it.
“Mmm...” Tired but not yet. “Forte. Can...you call me Sylph instead?”
Names were important. They signified something, a way to gauge one’s relationship with another. Fina would always be Fina to them, to the Sun, Fire, and Ocean but she was still Sylphina as well.
