[ dream ] for my muse to share dream with yours // @hwagah!!
TO THINK THAT three years have already passed;; three years without his bright whiskered smile & his warmth masked by a scowl. she simply goes day by day now, living off an overworked routine & hiding it all beneath soft features & determination. she knows mourning them won’t bring forth anything but pain & loss.
a heavy sigh leaves her form as she leans over, resting along the curve of the artist’s back with a blank expression on usually fond features. ( she can’t help but think of them, anyways. )
through trial & error, she’s developed a strong tie with the former ROOT nin-- finding herself reaching out for her teammate. though he hadn’t been around until after the Uchiha’s departure & she had scorned the way he had approached the team in such a crass manner, their bond as a team gave her a chance to know him, little by little. he became a nostalgic comfort.
“I dreamed of them again.” it comes off as a slow, wistful murmur. despondent features ease into quiet remembrance. “They were standing at the gates this time;; waiting for me.” dulled green glance down at her hands, slowly clenching & unclenching.
“.....and he said, we’re home.”
