[ Urianger hadn't noticed it grow so late in their home in the Empty - on a day the Exarch was visiting, at that. He was not like the Tower, but he could share energy. But the sun was setting... and Urianger began with quite a strong question. ]

...might I call you Raha?

[ A pulse of aether, as they cuddled into themselves. ]

Neither do I. Our souls, beating as one... it brings me contentment.

[He offers a series of ripples back- wrapping up in care and love.]

I'm glad. Then, for now- shall I look after you?

[aetherialslumber]

I deserve it. [ his voice was gentle. ] Until you need a rest from saving us Scions...

...and we save you.

[heartforthefuture]

You do. [Gentle affirmation,, before the Exarch gives an impression of embarrassment, curling up a little.]

I- you don't need to worry about me.

[aetherialslumber]

You already promised eternity to me. [ There is a softness, though - but there was a little fear in his aether. People kept dying and leaving him. ] Ah-- but you are different, aren't you. You will live.

[heartforthefuture]

And I mean to keep that promise. [He does his best to nuzzle up against Urianger, reassuring.]. Yes- with any luck, for a good long while yet.

A God of a Rift...

[ Their body was so nice - Urianger couldn't help but continue to touch it - beginning to stroke their tail. ] I cannot imagine it. But I can see your mind.

[heartforthefuture]

Ah… I don't know if I would go that far.

[embarrassed! But this is nice, and he purrs, curling their tail to make it easier.]

…I had the protections of the Tower. But it was a magnificent sight.
