WELCOME POTLUCK

Greetings, residents! Those more observant sorts among you may have noticed a large influx of very crowded ferries. In order to welcome our new residents en masse, Town Hall is holding a potluck in Town Square. Please bring a dish if you are able and make a new friend!

All of our newest arrivals need only bring themselves. We look forward to welcoming you all into our community, and may your lanterns always be lit.

This event is open to all! In light of our new influx of prospective players following the Great Sail Migration, we've decided to offer a small public event to tide everyone over until the TDM this weekend.

"Home," that one word sparks a solar flare in his soul. Her kiss could almost make him start crying again from joy.

Then, timidly, he voices a hope he's had for a long time. "Can it be our home? Officially?"

He might still keep a rented room at the Oak & Iron, in case they ever need alone time. He knows she needs her space. And he needs a place to bring any lovers he might take that isn't their bed. But... to think of her home as his... that's what he'd love the most.

Valdis blinks, recalling their conversation from long ago, when she'd been the one who felt insecure in their relationship and when he'd stepped up into the place she normally occupied. And here he is, away from the Eterna, in a place they've found each other again, expressing a desire that she never expected him to have. Something shifts again, something she hasn't felt since she was with Malachi. She loves Max, she knows she always have, but it suddenly feels so much deeper with that simple request. Their home.

"Yes."

She's not sure what else to add, or even if he needs anything else, so she just kisses him again.

good place to fade?

He's done a lot of thinking and a lot of growing. At first he was content to call the Serena his home. But... home shouldn't be a place they have to suffer in. He's become so sure of that. Living with her, he wouldn't suffer. He'd be comfortable. He'd feel safe.

Safe, just like he feels now leaning into her arms, deepening the kiss until all he can feel is her all around him.

"I love you."

Yep.

Whatever goddess she had to thank for retunring him to her would be offered whatever they desired. To have him, and to hold him again is all she ever wanted.

"I love you too."
