Willows in the wind (Day 8 Early Night)

[Yslane Tssilla]

"I am a Jedi, Zane," Yslane finally looks up, "It's not about who I deserve." She smiles weakly, "No attachments....at least not like that for one still so early on her path."

Yslane squeezes his hand, "And that's what Jedi do Zane, try to better the galaxy around them....sometimes its whole worlds and regions and sometimes its just one person." Her eyes drop back to the glass and she takes a breath, "Also in truth I...." Her face turns a bright red, "I......" She stammers and takes another breath. "...don't die tomorrow Zane....it would make me feel sad." Yslane looks away from her, it wouldn't take an expert to realize those were not the original words she wished to say.

[Zanebry Varliss]

"I know." Z replied with a soft smile, watching her closely. They had come to far on this path already, and they likely both knew it in their hearts.

"Aye, and thank you for that. It's liberating, even knowing I still have a long way to go." He lifted their hands up, giving hers a squeeze in return, before brushing it with his lips. "As you wish Yslane." He offered simply. "Ill come back alive, my Blueblossom looks her best when she smiles after all." He did realize her true intent, but let it go unsaid, a soft smile on his lips as he watched her.

[Yslane Tssilla]

"And I'll do my best as well," Yslane looks back at him with a smile, "To make sure we all come back alive."

[Zanebry Varliss]

He wanted to lean on and steal her lips, but satisfied himself by giving her another kiss on the hand instead. "Thank you, Yslane. Hopefully in a few days from now, we can see each other again and be nothing but smiles."

[Yslane Tssilla]

Yslane nods, "To coming back alive?" She takes a long sip and hands him the glass.

[Zanebry Varliss]

"To coming back alive." He replied, their fingers brushing as he took the glass. He'd turn it one more time, to where she just sipped before finishing it.

[Yslane Tssilla]

"Perhaps it best we head home now, Zane." Yslane let got of his hand, "Both of us need to prepare."

[Zanebry Varliss]

"Yes, you're right." The words were said softly, with perhaps a touch of regret as he rose to his feet, allowing his companion out of the booth. "We have a long day ahead of us tomorrow."

[Yslane Tssilla]

Yslane followed him out of the booth. Her face passing close to his as she contemplated her feelings. Ultimately she just smiled and moved past. "Yes..."

[Zanebry Varliss]

Zane caught her hand as she passed bringing it up as he bent down to deliver one last kiss on her knuckles. "Good night Yslane." He murmured softly, as he slowly let their fingers part.

[Yslane Tssilla]

Yslane gave him one last smile before departing.
