Of course, my dear friend. [ it's only the truth, after all. his smile is sincere and warm, and as he listens, it softens a little further. watching the goofy little magicians run around is one thing, but taair much prefers listening to zuriel talk about her friends. also me. that's my stupid son. ]
One of your knights of the round table. [ softly, warm. ] He sounds like a character from a story, too. A wonderful person.
[ a pause. ] ...You must miss them quite terribly, Zuriel.
[ okay yes, i see the vision. this is correct now. ]
That's right. Ronan and Gansey had known each other for a bit longer, but Adam wasn't that far behind. [ her dumb, dumb boys that she forced to accept her anyway. ] They're all infuriating sometimes and there were multiple times I wanted to kill them myself--figuratively, absolutely not literally--but they're still mine. They're mine, I'm theirs, and I don't see a reason that should change.
[ but...she nods. ]
I do miss them, but it's alright. When this is over, I'll be up for negotiations anyway.
Oh. I'm probably going to go back home. The boys might not know I'm missing in the end, but I miss them. And if the project won't continue after this, there's no reason for me to stay.

Basilio said to me that bickering is a mark of a good relationship, the other day, so that certainly rings true here, too.
[ a beat. ] ...Negotiation?

If we do another trial or if I go back home. If God does decide to run the project again, I don't have to sign on for another session.

...Will you tell me what you're thinking, my friend? For that decision.
