＂ would you like to join me ? ＂
⠀

[‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍²𝙽͟D‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎𝙸𝙽ST𝑨𝙽CE. @nonends]

⠀
＂ i am. ＂

a simple answer, given while gaze is still set on the sights before them. her presence familiar enough that to be discerned without needing even a noise.

at last, she turns, slightly, just enough to greet with a smile.

⠀
familiar footsteps sound as
one approaches , dropped
from a glider a few paces
behind . visage sparks a calm
grin , pausing not far away .

“ enjoying the view❔ ”

＂ it might, ＂ short—lived silence settles between them &. the butterfly doesn’t move, lips curling upwards ever so slightly.

＂ though i believe it would have already left if it truly wished to. don’t you think so too ?＂

An unerring attention flickered his interest from one to the other, head turning like a silent, unseen query — paired alongside one spoken.

“If I look too close, it’s bound to flutter away, no? Distant observation’s its own pleasure.”

&. she remains composed, with only her gaze shifting ┈─ lowering toward the hand at her chin.

＂ camellya. ＂

the word is spoken in the same soft tone as always, as if not attempting to sound as neither a reprimand or a threat.

&. she notices him before even looking, movement managing to draw her gaze in the direction, ＂ you can look closer, if that’s what you want. ＂

eyes return to the butterfly, its wing opening and closing as if breathing in place.

Whether his interest’s cast more upon caffeine or insect is hard to say. Whichever it is, he’ll lean forward for a canted view.

＂ it often brings me company, alongside many others. if you want to consider it my friend, it would perhaps be fitting. ＂

eyes back on the frail creature, careful that no movement disturbs its balance.
⠀

[‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍²𝙽͟D‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎𝙸𝙽ST𝑨𝙽CE. @nonends]

⠀
the shorekeeper watches the little creature in silence, allowing it to rest in peace. for as long as it wanted to. ＂ a friend… ＂ gaze lifts at the unknown voice, the corner of lips tilted ever so slightly upwards.
⠀

the fluttering of frail blue wings ensnares the curator's attention, eventually guiding her in the direction of @nonends. as the butterfly perches upon the other’s finger, she's left to marvel at the sight, amusement creeping &&

[‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍²𝙽͟D‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎𝙸𝙽ST𝑨𝙽CE. @nonends]

⠀
she doesn’t push the other away, yet it’s very clear camellya’s actions aren’t appreciated. ＂ hm, ＂ features remain perfectly calm, a wordless smile present.

it’s almost like she’s now ignoring her.

＂ impossibility is a conclusion you have never accepted. if anyone were to unmake a phenomena of that such magnitude, i believe it would be you … regardless of how long it takes.＂

⠀
hologram’s light reflects on now open eyes, ＂ the etheric sea… ＂ the words are spoken as if to catalog, or perhaps searching for, something.

the arm doesn’t startle, and, if anything, she leans into the contact with such ease.

⠀
It was the tiniest shift in weight against his shoulder┈─── yet he still noticed; her growing the slightest more comfortable. It was enough for him to wrap his arm around, and inch her closer with a tug at her waist. If only by a hair.

At her inquiry, his other hand

⠀
＂ so you are wondering if that’s possible. ＂

fingers lift to hover near the projection, never touching. one, two, seconds pass in silence before the shorekeeper breaks it.
⠀

[‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍²𝙽͟D‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎𝙸𝙽ST𝑨𝙽CE. @nonends]

⠀
high on a weathered stone ledge, the keeper sits with a cup of coffee cooling besides her &. a butterfly perched right next to it.
