“is that so?”

she asked him, blinking her eyes twice as she rolled her eyes once again.

“what trick, huh?”

“and i thought i was the one forgetting stuff.”

she said, crossing her arms as she spoke.
renee surprised herself when the thought of mirage's warmth crossed her mind abruptly.

she've never felt that kind of peace, or at least, not in a very, very long time. >

light punch from her comes to light shove from him , joking scoff along with it .

renee raised one of her eyebrows when she heard him. he was truly 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥.
the skirmisher rolled her eyes as she punched him softly in one of his arms once again.

“you?

friendly reminder: you still owe me five bucks.” >

a smug look on his face appeared , tilted head and shrugged shoulders to respond .

a similar feeling for him , a calm state of mind during the hug ; he would know to value this moment , at least for her and her inexperience .

though suddenly broken away , trying to get rid of that small sense of embarrassment

< she was, in fact, enjoying that moment of pure intimacy.
she sighed and opened her eyes, finally letting him go.

a soft expression was installed on her face as she pointed at him with her index finger.

“don’t get used to it.”

some quiet during this , specially he wouldn’t want her to never do this again : her embrace was soft enough for him to enjoy this .

the trickster had at least an idea of something like that , barely seeing her like this somewhat gave it away other than how she usually is .

a comment would have popped to his head but he decided to let it be for now , giving her

where were the voices when she needed them? what should she do in that situation?

renee hesitated for a moment, silently.
then she remembered when pathfinder once told her:

‘𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘩𝘶𝘨!’

he said. >

‍ ⠀⠀❛ Right , of course . . .

just kinda ended up becoming a bit awkward , specially as his answer came from whispers as well .

ㅤ

[* 𝐖𝘳𝘢͟𝘪𝘵𝘩. @skirmisherism]

“just. . . don’t—.”

she whispered, almost like if was some kind of secret, but she was embarrassed as well just like him.

“that’s what friends are for.”

something he would still be embarrassed to say , hand placed behind his head .

[* 𝐖𝘳𝘢͟𝘪𝘵𝘩. @skirmisherism]

she wasn’t convinced at all. not after everything he’s been through lately.
wraith considered him one of her favourite people. . . of course she was worried.

“okay—— okay. . .
i won’t insist. but you know. . . you know that i’m here, right?”

hands all over the place as he tried to gesture that he was fine with it . just something for him to be worried about , nothing more .

“i just wanted to check up on you.”

she was genuinely worried, especially knowing his mother’s situation.

caused chuckle of her reaction , yet more curious once her question popped up .

‍ ⠀⠀❛ huh . . ? Yeah why . ?

[* 𝐖𝘳𝘢͟𝘪𝘵𝘩. @skirmisherism]

“i. . .”

she knew that he knew she was being sarcastic.
wraith rolled her eyes as she hit one of his arms softly.

“are you okay, by the way?”

“you must be sooo exhausting receiving that much of attention...”

she's clearly being sarcastic, but in a friendly kind of way.
