[  downpour  ]  receiver  finds  sender  out  in  the  rain

Rain. Just more and more bars of rain endlessly coming straight down from the skies above — It was something Psyche had come to love, and come to adore. For it was beautiful and she, as she grew more as a person and grew older and wiser, found the beauty in just about everything she possibly could. Heels clicked against the pavement below as she walked along the street, eyes focused directly in front of her as she made her way onward; her hand clutched the umbrella that protected her from the cold water. As she walked alone, she could sense a familiar aura just around the corner. One she knew was a part of her.

Shun. Brows furrowed ever so slightly as she watched from a distance and remained quiet. She had visited him before as a child — though she always remained in the shadows, but she was there watching him grow. Her heart hurt not being able to truly be by his side and with him always, but she entrusted his father very much so to take care of their child. A soft sigh escaped Psyches lips as she continued to watch, almost forgetting that they weren’t in the mortal realm and now she could be at his side. The water droplets kissed his skin and covered him completely, making him soaking wet. “Here...” words escaped her lips as her feet lead her to be by his side, the umbrella that was over her now over him, protecting him from the cold rain that was steadily coming down. “I don’t want you catching anything..” she spoke softly, smiling as she examined his face. She knew who he was, she knew him the minute she saw him. She could feel the drawing of their souls together as she watched him from afar moments ago but did he feel who she was.

“Do you want to take my hand? I can help you home..”

[ cry ] for your muse to wipe mine’s tears away

guilt-- is the main thing that pulls her to brush the tears that linger on shun’s face, her fingers tenderly caressing the slopes of his cheeks as she whispered softly against his ears, heart aching softly for her son as she watched him crumple over in an emotional rage. she doesn’t deserve to linger by his side, to comfort him with the touch of her fingers when she’s the reason behind his emotional upheaval. 

that--is the main reason that she stays away. its a conflicting thing, being a mother to a child that hates you, psyche bitterly thinks, each flicker of her eyes tentative and hesitant as she threads her fingers comfortingly through shun’s hair. 

“i...i’m sorry.” its the age old word that has been said for far too much and far to long to this son of hers, an escape route for the guilt that she feels creep up in her chest each time that he turns in her direction, or when she sees the smile upon his face, knowing that she’s not the cause of it because of all the pain that she’s brought through him in his life. “i know you hate hearing this, shun. but give me some time.” its a soft begging that she makes, a plea for her son to give her a little time to gather herself, to do a little more of a reflection than just being that empty shell that lingered in the world without any purpose, like a parasitic husk. “just a few months, and i’ll make things better.”  its a wordless sigh of a promise that she hopes he takes well, fingers trailing his cheeks for one last time before she turns from him once again.

“ i’ve always sort of felt that you prepare yourself over the course of your whole life for the big moments, you know? but when they happen, you sometimes feel totally unready for them, or even that they’re not what you thought. “

“Oh-” The tall god put a hand over his heart at the sudden appearance of the man beside him. He cleared his throat as he attempted to act like he hadn’t been scared. “Ah yes...” Anubis processed what he had said before he nodded with a  soft accompanied grunt. When the other man didn’t respond to his nod he realized that he should speak as well. “I had not expected any moments in my life before I came to the mortal plane, since I was created to just do one thing, but I suppose that does sum up my initial reaction of Earth.”He glanced up and down at the demigod beside him to see if he could get any sort of read on the person that he was. “I do not believe that we have met. I am Anubis. What should I refer to you by?”
