Acension city

[Rayleonarde]

Ray reached out, and held her paws. "You feeling okay? You're usually so talkative."

[The Magic Otter]

Mag moaned Acon's name in her sleep.
Lucy looked at Mag and smiled, she thought that it was rather cute.

[Aconitum]

Magnolia closed her eyes and pulled Ray into her thin arms. She hugged him tight as she sobbed.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray held Magnolia close, and smiled. "Shh...shh...it's okay...it's okay. What happened that night...it wasn't your fault." He patted her back gently.

[Aconitum]

Magnolia shook hee head. "I... I couldn't..." she gasped for air through her sobs. "I'm sorry."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray kissed her cheek, before speaking. "No, don't blame yourself. There was nothing you could do. I don't blame you. This time we have now is all I need." He smiled, and squeezed himself closer to Magnolia, causing him to squeak weakly.

[Aconitum]

Magnolia calmed down a bit and wiped her eyes. "I love you." She whispered though the threat of another sob.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray smiled. "I know...if you didn't, I'd be in a store, wouldn't I?" He chuckled, and kissed her briefly. "I love you, too."

[Aconitum]

Magnolia smiled weakly before the thought crossed her mind. "W-would you like something? Anything?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray smiled. "To spend one last day, with you."

[Aconitum]

Magnolia closed her eyes again as she moved Ray backwards to the couch.

[Rayleonarde]

As he hit the couch, Ray sat, pulling Magnolia onto his lap. "Never subtle with what you want, Mags."

[Aconitum]

Magnolia smiled and shook her head. "I was left without you for too long. Delicacy is the least of my worries."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray chuckled. "I suppose...what was it? Four, five hundred years without your 'friend'." He kissed her deeply, before taking his shirt off.

[Aconitum]

Magnolia bit her lip and smiled warmly. She returned Ray's kiss with a soft sigh. "I missed you so much."
