Megaera had been thinking about things recently. About where the Bastion was headed, and what hope that might entail. While she'd come to accept that her former world was lost - and her world before that in turn, almost assuredly - it was still difficult to accept some of the things that were lost.

People were one thing. But the knowledge lost - and how much of the world's magic was going to be possibly forever crippled by not having enough arcane energy to cast more than three times per day without special tonics... That hurt more than anything. To someone who placed her identity as a wizard first and moremost, the idea of an entire world's development being lost - so much beyond her ability to know what to ask for, let alone to comprehend and use it - was really starting to get to her.

So she walked. Through the new forest, to the hot springs, to the very edges of the Bastion, out on her usual shard run... She'd been moving basically nonstop.

Where might you run into her?

[and then she pulls back, enough to look at you - to let you see her face.]

Have me.

[/?] - (gonna do a thing, hope it's alright)

[Headshake.]

[She steps back completely, almost out of the hug but not out of reach. Ikuri takes your hand, places it over her own chest...the spot where a human's heart is. Then she mirrors the gesture, reaching forward to place the palm of her free hand against the same spot on Megaeara; the other hand keeps the Succubus' own in place.]

[Ikuri stares meaningfully into your eyes for a moment - there is a pledge of sorts in there.]

[Whether or not there are actual heartbeats in either of them doesn't seem to be relevant.]

[done!]

Pain. [a nod.] ...Understand.

Have me. Need help.


[If you need help - the word can be inferred from the tone.]


[She hasn't broken the position yet.]

Hmm.

[An agreeing nod of her own, but it's fairly subtle and also quite satisfied-seeming despite the middle factor; she's pleased that she was able to communicate her intent so clearly.]

[And then stepping back into hug-land again, but it's soft and brief, perhaps meant only to reinforce the point.]
