LOCATION: the harvest festival. FOR: ashton ryder.
EVEN IF SHE HAD left afterglow behind -- her ghosts still haunted her. she knew that she was far from a saint. but while most would say she did what she had to do to survive, these decisions had manifested in guilt. no matter how well-intentioned choices could be, they could still cause hurt. and if there was no room for forgiveness, she would have to live with that. one such person was ashton, who's eyes she found her eyes locking at his own without even thinking. and then, she's being approached. she doesn't expect it, quite frankly -- more than anything expecting that they would just co-exist in the same place. eyes soon turn towards the ground, before she realizes that she needs to look him in the eye. stand tall where she is now. despite being a shamrock, she had made very clear to both finn and feary that she stood by the silver lining and their message. " what is it? " she asks, releasing an exhale as she collects herself before speaking again. " if this is about us being in the same spaces, i don't expect you to pretend around me. "
