“No need to fret, dear. You’re doing fine. It’s nice to meet you as well.”

Eve blinks —- honestly, she hadn’t expected such a warm reception. Slowly, she allows a smile to tug at her lips, a small laugh spilling forth. How interesting, how curious.

“I don’t mind the flattery. It is much better than the alternative,” the almost-embrace »

"Pardon the unsolicited remark." The curve of Destruction's lips softened into a sheepish smile. "A pleasure to finally meet you." Again, his body acted ahead of his mind⸺almost moving to embrace Eve, but caught himself.

"I'm making a dreadful first impression, aren't I?"

Frozen dumplings and dark chocolate peanut butter cups!

guess that makes sense. did you get anything from mister trader joe? it’s a shame he wasn’t even there.

“I know you, I know of you but I am not so sure we have ever officially met. Things get so tangled over the centuries ... you know?”

A hum and a tilt of her head.

[‍ 𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶ 𝐸𝐯𝐞 , @BITE0FAPPLE]

Her own joke seems to have gone nowhere —- with that she sighs and sits back against the bench.

“I’m aware. I resided there for quite some time after the whole forbidden fruit debacle. I kept ravens, not pigeons.”

She grins fully now, a flash of pearly whites. »

In the sense that if you eat the fruit without permission you are subject to punishment.

that’s … so misleading and disappointing. was it like paradise at least?

Well, initially that’s what I thought it would be.

But it was actually a distinctly nautical themed grocery store ... I did not meet Joe.

[𝓢. @MlDWESTBEAUTY]

you went to a trader named joe? it makes me wonder what would be considered paradise from him.

[‍ 𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶ 𝐸𝐯𝐞 , @BITE0FAPPLE]

Someone told me that Trader Joe’s was equivalent to paradise —-

I just went for the first time, and as a paradise connoisseur I have to say ... they were exaggerating a bit.

She hears his voice before she lifts her bright gaze to his face. A small, conspiratorial smile tugs at her lips. It has been awhile, indeed.

“Once or twice. Perhaps in a Dream,” she winks and turns back to the fawning flock to finish tossing out her stock of seeds.

[「 ᵀᴴᴱ 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒅𝒊𝒈𝒂𝒍. 」 @illisquimutati]

He tilted his neck slowly, turning to face the woman, his gaze sharp with a flicker of recognition and a hint of quiet curiosity.
