"Oh god, this is high up!" -space!Solus
"Of course it is. It’s my… Well, it was my cloud.” She sat down pensively next to the remains of a small pond, and looked towards some of the gnarled, ancient trees that still remained, growing stubbornly despite no longer having a caretacker.
"Where did she go?" She murmured softly of her one immortal child. To cover her moment of disquiet, she looked back at him, "But isn’t space higher? I wouldn’t peg you for being afraid of heights."
"My God, I know you...Who are you...?" -space!Solus
"The guardian." She looked at him, a bit confused - they've known each other for years now, did he have amnesia? "Annie. Solus, did something happen to you?" Now that she looked closer, she realized he did look a little different than before.
"He had a violent, uncontrolled temper, which sent him literally insane when he was annoyed, but he was good-looking." -to be said of dark!Solus, probably
Annamore raised an eyebrow at the vampire whispering to the young, newly turned vampire that shared the same name as her late husband - it was one of Sula's adopted brood, although, to her surprise, she found her no longer young. "Hey, he wasn't all violent and bad tempered. Didn't he used to babysit for you?" The guardian countered, good naturedly, before waving for Solus to follow her away, "Besides, isn't it bad luck to speak ill of the dead? Or is that not a vampire thing? Can never keep that straight."
"If this is love, I do not want it" -space!Solus
Her eyebrows settled low over her eyes, shrouding the sad expression in them, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to ever fall in love again. But if you want to be rid of my feelings, and yours, I could go back to the castle and try to stay away. Maybe with enough time, the feelings would fade." She managed a faint smile as she met his eyes, still a bit startled with how much they reminded her of the one she'd considered her Solus. "I'll accept whatever you want." She promised, even though the promise hurt her as much as the look on his face did.
"Just kiss me already! -space!Solus
Annamore looked up from her glass of wine, her eyes unreadable as she studied him for a moment, trying to decide if he was being serious. It was his first night staying with her in seventy years, but she hadn’t questioned him deeply on where he wanted to go with this… Or how fast.
Without realizing it, her cheeks took on a pleasant flush, partly from the wine, and partly from the realization that she would be more than happy to give into his demand. She sat her glass down, her other hand stretching to take his from him to set down as well. The guardian spent another minute just studying his face, a smile spreading across her own as she did. Finally she leaned in and pressed her lips against his, lightly at first, but slowly she leaned in more firmly, surprised as she felt a sense of need boil up in her.
Her arms slipped around his neck and she pulled herself closer to him as she deepened the kiss, nearly ending up in his lap, all else forgotten except for the fact that he came back to her. And he wanted this.
"How can I know who I am until I find out who I was?" -space!Solus
She sighed - she knew, deep down, that there was so much more to this guy than either of them wanted to admit. "I don't know the answer to that." She admitted, a little unhappily. She knew what she had to do, though.
She pulled the key from around her neck, and offered it out to him. It was partially an apology for doing this to him in the first place, for accidentally turning him into a vampire. He was restless and unsure of himself and stifling under her wing. But she felt an attachment to him, so letting go was hard.
"Be careful out there, all right? And come back. I'm only loaning this to you. I expect it back, when you're done searching, all right?" She met his eyes, hers backlit with concern, "Although, if you want to get yourself into danger every now and then so I can check on you, I suppose you can."
"I just need some space." -space!Solus ((GET IT???? GET IT???? HURRRRR))
"Space? You need space?” She pointed out the viewport incredulously, “We are in an airlock about to be ejected. I think you’re going to get all the space you want, permanently, while your body freezes in cold, hard vacuum!”
"Now get your ass through this portal before I bite you or something, okay?" She threatened, although she figured he had enough self-preservation instinct to not continue arguing.
"The way forward is sometimes the way back." -space!Solus
"It does feel that way." She murmured, wondering how long it’d been since she’d last seen him. When you reach a certain age, time starts to flow differently, and it seemed to flow even more strangely in space.
"I’ll go any direction I need to, if in the end you can join me again." She let her hand brush against his, as light as a breath, before pulling it back. No need to make it worse on either of them. She met his eyes again, offering up a sweet, patient smile, before humming a song to him, older than he was, yet it was a song woven with his history. A parting gift, before she had to leave again, and an affirmation of her undying love.
