Welcome to Gaia! ::

"And I've missed you ever so," Robyn commented, her smile just widening as he grinned. Suddenly, all that fatigue from a moment ago vanished in his eyes as he smiled. He was just how she remembered, that grin he had held all those weeks, months and even years ago.

Leaning forwards, she dragged him into a tight hug. Afterall, she had always thought gestures were better than words, and none were tighter than the neko's grip around her husbands back. Her nose delved into his neck, her fingers left his own to wrap themselves up in his clothing. Letting her ears flick the once, if Tavin had listened closely, he would have been able to swear he heard her purr.

"Ever ever so."

Robyn didn't want to let go, and once he leaned back, her fingers only further clasped onto his side. She didn't want this to end, not now. She'd been so lonely, so very very lonely. Which only fueled her suprise as he leant in to kiss her, Robyn almost freezing on the spot. Almost cautiously, she returned his kiss a second later, pressing the tip of her nose back against his own.

Kisses were always short-lived, and this one wasn't any different. She felt like a teenager as he pulled back, a thirteen year old after her first kiss: giddy, excited, and yet with a deep overwhelming burning of love towards this man flying around in her stomach like butterflies. Purples irises had even found themselves closing part way, only to flutter open, following gravity of that salty tear.

"Don't cry," She spoke, just the once more, bringing her hand forwards to curve the tear before it dribbled down his cheek. Folding it beneath her fingers, a soft smile befell her face once more.

It was only when his cheeks reddened that the love stuck neko was hit by the behind, a flush rising to her own pale cheeks. Her mouth opened like a fish, quickly adverting the subject by pulling the chair out behind him so he could sit down if he wished.

"Fine, just fine," She stuttered, nails returning to weave into the mass that was the jumper sloped around her shoulders.

"Thea?" The word almost sounded alien. The woman blushed bright red, and then turned off in the other direction before finishing her sentence.

"She's fine, living with some other woman now. I don't see her often, she's always...always...at those girls clubs," Robyn ended, trying to speak as quickly as she could as she mentioned about Thea's sexuality. It wasn't like the woman didn't mind, of course she didn't, it was just the fact there wouldn't ever be any grandchilden that she minded.

"Sorry,"

"S-safe, your right, she's happy and safe," It was her turn to falter, Robyn almost wincing once the plural escaped his lips. She knew about one, not the other, and it killed her deep down inside. Alex, her little boy, could have been anywhere - would he be angry at her? Would he hate her for not doing more that night? He was right, as long as they were happy. Yet, was he happy?

"I'm so sorry Tavin, I'm so sorry about Alex," Tears welled up in her eyes, he would know, surely. Thea had spoken about it before, she'd seen him. A choke settled at the bottom of her throat, not being able to meet his gaze. It was something she didn't touch on with anyone else, and Thea didn't ever mention it.

He's safe? Large black ears twitched, tail flicking around from her side to flick the once from one side to the next. She couldn't believe it for a moment, Alex had been seen, her baby was safe. Purple eyes met his, the edges of her own expression softening.

"He's a lawyer?" Was all she could say for a moment, finally a laugh bubbleing up from her throat. Whether it was through relief, joy or even just the moment of exhilaration as that pressure wiped through - Robyn's lips curled in a small chuckle, quickly covered by one hand. It was how she'd gotten through it all, just laughed through it all.

"Promise me you'll take care of him, for us?" She questioned a moment later, doing her best to brush aside any laughter. Her hand reached out for his, clasping it tightly once again.

Robyn almost beamed happily for a moment, the weight dropping right off her shoulders as her smaller hands clasped his. Large ears flickered for a second, turning as her tail started to vanish before her eyes. Not now, she'd barely been here five minutes, not yet, they still had so much - so much to say, to do.

Fading fingers clasped onto his tightly for a second longer, that same smile left on her face. "Love you," She spoke, the end of her words cutting off as Robyn was warped back to Gaia. Back to her real world, leaving Tavin alone once more.

Robyn Brinks out.

*Enter Luke and Cora from Library pg 69*

:::Cora continued the converstaion through the hall and out to the bar. She hooked her arm playfully in Luke's:::

Why... I'm your cousin from Canada, Cora Blaize. You know, it's in the blood.

:::which reminded her. She smiled deviously, but only to keep herself from laughing outloud at the thought:::

Oh... did Chuck get my message?

:::Cora, staying arm and arm with him, glances up in...almost a giddy wonder, as though she couldn't imagine the events that followed:::

How... did he react?
