[ she's so, so lucky too. people who have reached their hands into the worst of her and wanted to bring the person they loved out, never giving up no matter how frustrated she must make them at time, and after a moment she rests back in her seat with a smaller smile. ]
I'm a real fool, Zag. I take those very people for granted -- but it's because I want them to always be there in my life, I expect them to be, and... I end up pretty greedy because of it. Like a dragon hoarding gold. March, Izou, Vergilius, Yesod, Gebura, Netzach, Ereshkigal, Wriothesley -- they're all people who've tried for me, in the past and present, and I owe so, so much to them. Especially... those first three, as far as the friends I've made here.
[ oh, how she loves them. that's evident enough in her warm voice, the way her eyes crease as she smiles. her coworkers will always be important to her. there's a decade, there's ten thousand years, worth of time between them, nevermind the dream they shared in the first place.
it makes the connections she's made here all the more poignant. what do you want, elysium had asked her. maybe she's already found it, fool that she is. food for thought. ]
I hope you have people like that too, Zag. They're truly indispensable, aren't they?
