And we are all left to suffer its ill intents. Except you, you have found a way out. [a hiccupping laugh] I suppose I should be glad for you? And I will never, ever forget you or your kindness.

[she squeezes him tight and fights back a fresh wave of tears]

If only! And--and, yes. At least we have a little while to say our goodbyes. I do not hope to meet you again on Earth and I doubt I'd be able to visit your home first.

I have suffered enough of its ill intents to last me for eternity. But it is not me I am worried about right now, it's you and those who remain.

[ He squeezes her equally tight and kisses her forehead. ]

We really don't know, though. Who knows, we might meet again? I am not at all certain that this parting will cut off all possibility of that. If my departure works as planned, I will be able to journey the worlds at my will. And I wonder. . . well, I don't know, but you and I have a rapport that might last beyond the barriers of time and space. What if someday I can reach out a hand to you and bring you with me? Would you come?

/snugs!

[roseofthetyrells]

Thank you for your concern, but how can you be sure that this new world will be any better?

[she fights back a fresh wave of tears]

...yes. Yes, I would. I have had my fill of this place and its so-called gods.

/nestles!

[so_dark_a_road]

I can't be sure that any world will be any better. But now I am aware that I have some ability to pick and choose. If a world looks like it has any of the same bad characteristics as this one does, I won't stay. I'll find another, better one.

[ He leans his head against her hair and tries to surround her with his love and care. ]

Then all will be well. [ He smiles. ] I will send you a summons or I will come and get you. If I hover in the Void, I should be able to get close enough to make this work.

/cuddles

[roseofthetyrells]

There must be a better world out there. Perhaps it's Earth, perhaps not. But I have faith in your ability to discover it.

[she clutches at his shoulders with her hands]

That would be lovely. To be free of this place and its so-called gods. . . it would be wonderful.

/huggles

[so_dark_a_road]

I sincerely hope there is!

[ He looks down into her eyes, and his are very tender. ]

For you, I want whatever would make you happiest. If you want freedom, then I want it for you.

/snuggles into it

[roseofthetyrells]

As do I. For your sake. For everyone's sakes.

[and hers are wide with emotion]

...what would make me happiest? Is my freedom from this place. There are people I would miss, but I would be rid of the so-called gods if I could.

/never lets you go!

[so_dark_a_road]

Then I will make it my mission to free you from this place. I am sure that your friends will miss you, but if you must be free, then you must.

[ His eyes, too, are emotional. How hard it is to let go of those we love, even if it is only for a time! ]

/clings!

[roseofthetyrells]

I thank you for it. I will wait and try to be patient.

[it's terribly hard. she's never been good at goodbyes]

/smooshes you

[so_dark_a_road]

A difficult thing to do, in this place. I think it is I that have the easier part.

[ And neither has Curufin. So, they're both terrible at goodbyes! ]

/smooshes back

[roseofthetyrells]

Indeed. For you will be free and I will be still trapped in this place until you find a way to free me as well.

[goodbyes are terrible and she hates them]

/smooshes you twice as much!

[so_dark_a_road]

I will work to make sure that time is as short as possible.

[ Goodbyes are dreadful! ]

/thrice as much!

[roseofthetyrells]

Please do. I'l be waiting.

[they are, so she'll not say it. she'll trust that she will see him again]

/fours times as much! XD

[so_dark_a_road]

I'll be true to my promise.

[ He simply wraps his arms around her more tightly. He does not want to let her go. ]

/five times!

[roseofthetyrells]

I know you will. And I thank you for it.

[that's good, because she doesn't want to let go or be let go]

/we are so smooshed that we are turned into a couple of smoothies

[so_dark_a_road]

It is I who should be thanking you. You have meant so much to me! I would not want to be without you.

[ Even with the trust that they will see one another again, he cannot bear to let her go. Just a few minutes more, he thinks to himself, but the moments go by and still he holds on. ]

mmm, smoothies

[roseofthetyrells]

...then don't?

[she hates the thought of being without her friend]

nom nom

[so_dark_a_road]

Now that I know you are agreeable to the idea of not being separated, I don't plan to be without you!

[ He hates the thought of being without his friend, too!]
