"Have more faith, professor... in both her and yourself. I believe she'll only be thrilled for you to speak your heart to her."
@hereticusarbour She knows deep down how you feel, she wants to hear you say it out loud."
["By keeping quiet, you might make her doubt or disbelieve in whatever bond you two share."
Under her veil, polyxia gives anaxa a knowing smile.
"One so believing in truth wouldn't want someone so -
@hereticusarbour "Professor... you should take a moment with her. you shouldn't leave room for regrets."
[ "from personal experience... finally being able to share that moment to say everything... there's a feeling after. You feel lighter, happier.
And keeping silent tends to only cause harm." ]
@hereticusarbour "Professor...."
Castorice is sympathetic, of course- her hand twitches, the human instinct to place a hand on his shoulder in comfort.
Luckily, pollux understands, and, uncursed, does so instead.
[ "you can understand why castorice was hesitant for you to know..." ]
@hereticusarbour [ "I'll tell him. ]
"But-"
[ "its okay. If theres one thing those of Reason share in common, it's their stubbornness." ]
Polyxia looks at anaxa.
[ "in the last cycle, you gave your life to protect miss hyacine. She was healing injured when she was ambushed by the flame reaver." ]
