[All of the sudden, she found her eyes on the ground. She had a sudden urge in her chest. To say at least a little something. It should be...fine. He'd understand it, probably. He might be the only one who would.]
You told me you asked for a date. Well, I asked for a sign.
[Whether or not she wants to elaborate is up to her, but that's just vague enough to get him curious. Who knows, maybe 'a sign' was all her paper said. Which is just asking for trouble in a place like this.]
[Her best friend. The person she missed so much, despite everything. She'd miss her no matter what. No matter how far away or what she decided to own up to.]
That was it.
[...]
I shouldn't even have written it down. It was stupid.
[He watches her out of the corner of his eye for a long moment before letting his gaze drift up toward the stars.]
Nah. That sounds like a normal wish to me. But you ought to ask the Witch herself if you want a real answer.
[A gentle sigh escapes his lips.]
I made that kind of wish every damn day the first year- no, the whole time Luna was overseas. I missed him like hell. Even now with him off on some secret training again. Things were tough, and lonely, but I kept pulling through just to make sure I could welcome him back with a smile, you know?
[Hahah. So why's it so hard to do that these days?]
...Shit, that got really corny. I'm tired, okay. Point is, it's not a dumb wish and I hope your friend's doing the same.
[But without the seeds of Despair being sown all around her. He just keeps that thought to himself.]
[Once he turned to look at the sky, she turned her attention to him. Riye took in every single word he said and seemed to swallow each. She obviously knew he loved Luna more than anyone. In a slightly different cloth than Riye and Jane, but not so dissimilar. It was the same kind of feeling, being away from the people who mattered the most.
Welcome back with a smile, huh? Riye and Jane may be cross dimensions and not bodies of water, but it was the same mentality. No matter what happened, just keep looking forward. Mal made herself remember that every now and then.]
I was kind of corny first. We're all tired.
But thanks anyway.
[Her tail seemed to flick, and maybe a little small smile appeared.]
