I did. I fucking did, and I'm...I'm...

[She sits back, still holding onto Tiffany by the arms.]

I'm proud of myself. Maybe for the first fucking time ever, I'm fucking proud.
wishiwasatree: (stare down)

[personal profile] wishiwasatree 2022-07-19 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I do. Even when I was harshest on myself, you never fucking wavered. Not fucking once. You...you're the best friend I've ever had, Tiffany.
wishiwasatree: (vulnerable)

[And here's the part she's been dreading.]

Gonna go with Dorian for a bit, take a break from the Barge. He thinks I should see the world, and I agree. I'm fucking sheltered, and I need some time.

[She inhales.] And then I'm gonna come back and be a warden. Think I can do a lot of good here.
wishiwasatree: (worried)

Not unless you leave 'fore I come back, but it'll only be a couple of days with the way time works here. But Tiffany...

[She pulls back again.]

I have to tell you something, about me and Kaz.
wishiwasatree: (listening)

[personal profile] wishiwasatree 2022-07-20 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Uh.]

He asked me to marry him. [She guesses that means exclusivity? Or maybe it doesn't. She doesn't actually know.]

Told him yes.

[She looks down as she brings the ring out from her pocket. She wasn't going to wear it until she told Tiffany; god knows how that would have made her feel.]

Yeah, at some fucking point. That's...I should've told you sooner, about what I wanted, Tiffany. I don't think I can build a life where you're going -- not the kind of life I really want. I want something boring, fucking domestic.

But I didn't, not for a long time.

[She pockets the ring again and takes her hand.]

I didn't know what the fuck I wanted. I didn't think I deserved anything. And I...didn't want to lose you when I finally fucking saw it. I'm so sorry.
wishiwasatree: (hand over face)

[personal profile] wishiwasatree 2022-07-20 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
[As much as she hates the idea of being without Tiffany, it's even worse to think of a world where she hadn't been able to love her. She shakes her head, adamant.]

No, goddammit! No. I...we...we weren't a mistake! Even if us being together ain't where it ends, I don't regret one fucking second of it. I love you, Tiffany.
wishiwasatree: (having a smoke)

And...and it hurts to have to say goodbye. But I'd rather hurt now than have held back anything.

[She reaches for her again, wanting another embrace.]

[She holds her tightly, nodding against her head.]

I'm...I'm hopeful. I really fucking am.

[personal profile] wishiwasatree 2022-07-20 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[How'd she get so lucky? She just doesn't know.]

You promise you won't leave before I come back?
wishiwasatree: (the compassionate whore)

[She touches her head softly. This is still allowed, isn't it? It isn't like she can just turn off her affection.]

Tell me about it. It's weird for me, can't imagine how it is for you.
