It's been... a really long time.

[floorcandy]

[points at his face]

[SEE I TOLD YOU]

[TEARS ARE HAPPENING]

How long?

[rootless]

Uhhhh, hundred and five years? Maybe hundred and ten?

[floorcandy]

That's too long!

[rootless]

No shit!

[floorcandy]

[reaches for Tempest's face, patting his cheeks and then stroking into his hair, touching his horns. it's a little while before he speaks, running through different options in his head]

[but, not asking about any of them]

I'm sorry.

[rootless]

[leaning into pets, just... what]

Why are you apologizing?

[floorcandy]

I don't know. I thought I was going to bring you home with me... but that never happened, did it?

[I LEFT SOMEONE I DID WRONG]

[rootless]

That's not on you, idiot! I left!

[floorcandy]

[but]

[WHY]

[rootless]

So don't apologize.

[floorcandy]

... Okay, I won't.

[rootless]

I'm happy to see you again, so don't... don't blame yourself for things that aren't your fault.

[floorcandy]

Sorry. For saying sorry...

You grew up well!

[rootless]

[floorcandy]

[cuddles back, voice warming up into something genuine instead that wobbly guilt]

I mean it! A hundred years... You've made friends, yeah?

[rootless]

So many friends.

[floorcandy]

Tell me about them!

[rootless]

Thaaat would take way too long.

[floorcandy]

Tell me about your newest hottest boyfriends.

[rootless]

Do you really want to know about my sex life?

[floorcandy]

Yes.

Tell me their names, ages, heights, and easy way to identify them on sight ♥

[rootless]

[...headlocks

[floorcandy]

But I need to catch up on my shipping!

[rootless]
