WEEK THREE

19 Villagers

They say nothing is healthier for the mind and body than physical labor - especially if you can hold the fruits of it in your hands and store it in your kitchen. Whatever cruelties you have witnessed or endured in the past week, your fields need tending to and they reward you with as quick as harvest as always.

If drowning your grief in work is not enough for you, there are new spots to explore in Puffin Town. Allow the novelty to distract you from your dwindling numbers!

Always remember, the value of a community is not measured by it's size.

(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST for this final week! Get your bloodthirst in or forever hold your peace! Gift submission is still open as well!

If your character has been planting Astera, here's a reminder to report it at the Astera tracker - this does not need to have been threaded, we're just taking stock on an OOC level.))

Well, I -

[She pauses to run her fang against her lip, thinking about what Vayne said. Marriage is for someone you want to be with forever. What kind of forever is she able to give Noah? Would he be happier if he found someone who could give him more than that?

Mio, though...she doesn't need forever. She needs him to know what she's feeling now.]

I think my feelings and how strong they are would be the same either way. If this is how to set them into stone, then... we should give it our best.

[revelate]

["Forever" isn't as far out of reach as Mio might think. After all, don't they know a few people for which eternity is the norm? People who live more than ten terms, more than twenty, more than a hundred. People who hold fate in their hands.

Their friends will come to hate him for his betrayal, surely, but so be it. She deserves that eternity. Only Mio's forgiveness matters.]

My feelings won't ever change. [HM,] So if this is what it takes to return to where we belong, we'll do it. No matter the cost.

[moonblades]

[Hm.

She doesn't know what's on his mind, though she knows he's hurt by something her hands can't reach to heal. Hopefully, the things they've shared up until this point will still be able to get through to him. Mio leans forward, hands braced on her dog plushie.]

And mine. I meant it. But what is the cost? If it's as simple as they say - if we'll just be linked together - we already have all that, don't we? It's what we have right now.

[revelate]

[The cost is something she won't accept without a fight. Still, smallest of small mercies, he'll at least tell her his plan before putting it onto motion. He won't rob her of her choice in the matter.]

It's much more than that. "Forever," they said. To carry on into eternity... I doubt this place has the means by which we can achieve that.

[However...]

We can discuss this later.

[This is hardly the time or place.]

[moonblades]

[vayne will you look at what you've fucking done]

Forever for us... [Does it mean that they'd be standing still? Unable to change, unable to live their lives? He has so much more to do, even if it's alone.]

Okay, later then. We won't know until we figure out exactly how to get married.
