Flash_Guardian bears a wistful smile, like a small candle in the middle of a darkened room. "Yeah ... I guess you're right." He chuckles, lips turning up into an affectionate smile. "I do want to have her in my life ... for as long as that may be. But after I'm gone ... what then? I don't want to leave her a widow, Glyniss." He seems concerned once again, looking to the woman for advice.

Glyniss_McMasters opens her mouth to speak closing it as a sudden burst of birds taking flight as if frightened by something...watching them a few seconds thankful for the chance to mill over what she could say to him....looking back at him slowly..." Tha' acoul' happe' no amatte' wha' yer ar' Flash...eve' immortal' ca' adi jus' not as eas' as human'... side' yer won' be aleavin' her on he' ow' yer be wit' he' alway' in ter" leaning over as she taps his chest lightly

Flash_Guardian sighs a bittersweet sigh, looking down at his chest where Glyniss touched him. His gaze settles on his amethyst pendant, a rather simple piece of jewelry, a purple amethyst crystal wrapped in a web of silver wires and hanging from a simple chain. "You're right, Glyniss," he says, bring a hand up to hold the pendant out from his chest as he gazes at it fondly. "I shouldn't make excuses. There's no reason for the two of us not to be happy together." He turns the pendant this was and that, the sunlight catching it and sending glints of light reflecting into the air.

Glyniss_McMasters nods letting his hand go sighing a deep sigh of relief ...love was something she had yet to discover yet she knew how it would be....if it ever was going to be...letting her hands drop to rest upon the surface of the rock as she leans back a little watching the deep hues of the gem catch and dance with the sunlight..

Flash_Guardian suddenly breaks into an amused grin, his eyes twinkling. "Well, I think I know what I'm going to use the gems and silver that I got from the gypsies for," he musics. "Can't very well get hitched without a pair of rings, now can I?" He says, smirking up at Glyniss happily.

Glyniss_McMasters laughs shaking her head " Na' yer can'.....mayb' yer ca' hav' ter cermon' ther'....an'.....an'..." she frowns not finishing just letting it drop

Flash_Guardian furrows his brow at Glyniss, suddenly concerned. "And ... what?" he pries, leaning forward and waiting tentatively for her answer.

Glyniss_McMasters brows knit " I wa' agoin' ter sa' mayb' Bluey coul' ado ter cermon' bu' I don' thin' tha' a goo' ide' ter wa' he is"

Flash_Guardian blinks. "Blue?" he asks, somewhat startled. "What ... what's wrong with Blue?"

Glyniss_McMasters blinks jerking back a little...." He' ano' ahapp' critte'...." she nods slowly remembering the state he was in when she put him to bed

Chibi_Kivisto vaguely remembered this place. He knew he had been here before, standing in this very stream, as he was now, more or less at the edge of the water, so only his feet were ankle deep. He had been here before....but couldn't quite remember. Something had happened. But it didn't seem to matter right now. He'd let out a sigh, plopping down next to the stream, letting his feet soak. It was cold, but he'd been walking for what felt like forever. And it felt good to soak his feet.

Flash_Guardian shakes his head, still not seeing the whole picture. "Why? Did something happen to him? Is he alright?" Flash persists, trying to get the information out of Glyniss.

[Glyniss_McMasters ] " Flash...I ca' sa' ter up ter hi' ter tel' yer.....jus'" leaning over patting his hand....her attention going to the trees as she frowns....birds were circiling over there after taking suddenly to the air

Flash_Guardian 's gaze unconsciously follows Glyniss's to the canopy overheard, searching for what she sees, distracted for the moment by her sudden interest in something overhead.

Chibi_Kivisto was lost deep in thought. He didn't see why he shouldn't think about things. After all, if he doesn't think about them, then likely, he won't come up with any answers. He'd sigh, pulling his pendant from under his shirt and fingering it. Things were good for him right now. But he didn't want them to be good for himself, if it ment his family was suffering. As he continues to think on these things, his eyes would get that far away look, and the world about him would seem to disappear. Only to him though.

[Glyniss_McMasters ] " Somethin' agoin' on.." her eyes scanning the forest line...sideglancing to Flash..." Jus' yer be goo' ter hi' hea'..." pushing herself up now and tentively limping over to where the birds had been squawking

Flash_Guardian chuckles suddenly, dismissing anything that might have caught Glyniss's attention. "Don't worry, I'll be sure to be nice to Blue next time I see him." He watches her rise and leave. "Well, I guess if I'm going to make a pair of rings, I'd better get started," he says, pushing himself up to his feet. "See you around, Glyniss!" he calls after her, waving.

Glyniss_McMasters frowns nodding as she glances over her shoulder back at Flash...." Yer akeep saf' hea'"

Flash_Guardian nods and disappears into the woods nearby.
