❝ you are far too hard on yourself, my dear. ❞
`A SMALL GIFT, A SILENT SHOW OF AFFECTION. The Arch-Mage had been practicing on enchanting jewelry lately // HAVING BEEN MANY A YEAR SINCE SHE'S DONE IT FOR SELF (AND WANTED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT FOR A MUCH... MORE IMPORTANT PROJECT TO COME). She had fussed and rambled about how the necklace was 'a minor thing' with 'enchantments she would improve later'. Just a boon of health and strength // SMALL AS WAS. Then beloved withdrew the scholar from a bad habit of chattering about like a drain-- - WORSE WHEN NERVES SHE DIDN'T LIKE MAKING OBVIOUS HEIGHTENED-- - and a soft chuckle followed after Nexith's words. “&– -You know, you are one to talk about such, my love. Perhaps I will ease off on myself when you do the same for yourself as well.” Clawed hand moved to her hip, resting lax upon it.
`AND FREE HAND STRAYED EVER IN SLIGHT. Moving to rest upon the side of the taller argonian oh so familiar to her. Bold as ever // NEVER CEASING, ESPECIALLY WITH HIM // did she raise up upon talons to place a kiss upon vermillion lips. “&– -I just like knowing you are even the slightest bit safer is all. I want to have you by my side as long as possible-- - my hope is to one day turn that into eternity, perhaps.” A joke radiating with a level of REALITY TO IT. Kasaen had yet to pop a burning question-- - or rather, it was one of two (BUT SHE DIDN'T KNOW PROPER IF SHE SHOULD ASK FOR A HAND BEFORE MORTALITY, OR VICE VERSA). Regardless, that was for another day-- - project still had to continue first before she made a decision. “&– -I decided not to make it too eye catching, despite how much I'd enjoy that. Should easily hide under your clothing to negate a wandering eye catching you in the shadows upon the catching of light-- - or snug in a pocket so it doesn't get in the way. Should work the same regardless.” // @5ithis
