... is this okay?

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

I don't recall having something made for me before, food aside...

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

Well, I wasn't-- I wasn't going to put a collar on you, like a pet.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

Nor did I expect you to, but I did not expect...

[ they trail off, and then -

there's sort of a sniffle? ]

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

Well, I said I would--

[ pauses, surprised, eyes widening a little. ]

... Silfda?

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

[ they startle a little, looking up from the necklace at her. ]

Ah, my apologies. Thank you.

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ well. hesitates a moment but leans forward to hug them. ]

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

[ hug. hug!!!!

a very, very, very tight hug. ]

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ ow ow ow ow

tenses in pain, but just hugs them back until they're satisfied. ]

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

[ after awhile they notice that and let go, nuzzling their face into her shoulder. ]

My apologies, I did not mean to be so rough.

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ it's probably easier to see the bandages under the collar of her shirt this close now, at least ]

No, it's okay, you weren't. I just have some cuts from the game.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

Are they - they've been treated, yes?

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

I cleaned and wrapped them, it's okay.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

Ah, well then -

[ they shift a bit, like they're unsure what to do next. when they speak again their voice has shifted to their weird flowery, formal tone. ]

This beast isn't well versed in expressing gratitude in any way aside from through physical means or acts of service, but I - really am very thankful for this gift, and I will cherish it for as long as I am able -

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

... I just hope it helps.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

...Even if it does not help with this specific issue, it will help. It is a precious gift, a reminder that this beast is loved. A remedy for dark times.

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ blushes, faintly. ]

Alright. I'm sorry I couldn't make something prettier, with the time I had.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

[ they reach for her hand to give it a kiss. ]

Regardless of what you think of its craftsmanship, I believe that it is among one of the most beautiful things I shall ever own.

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ ...

pets their cheek, gently. ]

I'll... try to make something better, even so.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

[ their ears perk up, and they nuzzle against her hand. ]

Oh, well - I'll look forward to it!

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ smiles, faintly. ]

Okay-- good. I'm glad.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

[ they let go of her hand to put the necklace on, doing so veeery slowly and with their eyes shut tight.

once it's on though, their tail starts wagging. ]

It's nice!

Re: sometime 345

[vitainmorte]

[ quietly relieved. ]

Something simple looks nice on you.

Re: sometime 345

[beautifulend]

Oh - thank you!
