"𝚜𝚑𝚎 𝚍𝚘𝚎𝚜𝚗'𝚝 𝚠𝚊𝚗𝚝 𝚝𝚘 𝚐𝚘 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚢𝚘𝚞." a blonde haired arcturus says, and even though his words are threatening the smile on his face is anything but. he knows he can take on whoever comes his way, so the calm remains plastered to his face, even as a younger ianthina shakes her head and assures him everything is fine. the scene of them being shrugged off by the perpetrator replays once, twice, then they’re moving towards the convenience store across the road. they look for bandages and disinfectant wipes, the arcturus then is just as relentless as the arcturus now in making sure ianthina is alright.
the first time they met.
he plays it back on a loop for ian, who’s seated beside him, to see. they’re floating through space, encased in a bubble of arcturus’ magic. around them are vivid memories taken from his very own mind playing on repeat like a compilation of movies. all around them his memories float in and out of view, some from the first body he inhabited when he’d met her - blonde, shorter, muscular - others from the body he’s in now; slim, black hair, still short. ( it’s harder to kiss her when he’s in a taller vessel )
“which ones your favourite?” he turns to her and asks, smiling wide, hoping she’s as happy as he is in this very moment.
