JULY | After the Hotel (cake) Party (CLOSED to Yuri)

[phoenixstrut]

((WARNING: briefly PG-13))

It had been so long since she had had so much fun. A night of revelry, good cake, dancing, and friends had led to innocent play, then onto another encounter beyond physical intimacy. Maybe life atop this giant turtle wasn't too bad... Maybe she had just dreamed of the entire evening.

For now, she most certainly was dreaming, warm and tucked away at her lover's side. Moonlight streamed through her window, painting striking stripes across the pale skin of the two so lost in slumber.

Era, sometime in the night, had returned through her window, and lay curled near her bathroom door atop a blanket the angel had laid out for him.

CLOSED to Raine | Lunch Time, before Erskine's Fire (early August)

At least things weren't as bad as they had been after the vision of Malicant's brutality had swept the turtle. Instead of crippling her entirely under the stress of everyone else's emotions, Dove's newest heartbreak was hers alone to carry.

And it sucked.

Despite the hollowness that she carried within her, she continued on as normal, upbeat and friendly and hard at work at the Healing Guild. People seemed to be a little more lighthearted after the party at the hotel, and she was determined to keep it that way as long as she could.

When her last patient had been seen to, she found her way over to the sink, washing her hands as she let herself relax a little. Her stomach growled quietly under the sound of the running water, and with a quick glance at the clock, she decided she would take her lunch break. She'd have to find Raine, first, and make sure that the she knew she was leaving for now...

After finally locating her, Dove paused in a moment of consideration. the hollowness was not a thing that could be filled... but the loneliness that had taken root could be lessened if only she would take the opportunity. She should have started long ago, but had been distracted in the whirlwind of settling into things. At least now she had the time to right it.

With a smile, she made her way over, giving Raine plenty of space to complete whatever she was doing and careful not to interrupt. "Hey, you hungry?" she asked, relaxing. Why hadn't she done this sooner? "I was thinking about grabbing some lunch if you wanted to join."
