"Ahh. That'd be the right size then, for sure," he said, smiling peacefully.
"Celaien? Who was that? What happened?" he asked, blinking at Ianios. Ian seemed so young... yet he'd already fallen in love and his love had died? Just how old did feien live to be?? He resolved to look in the shop for more answers later that evening, or perhaps tomorrow.

Rynn decided to let Ian answer. He looked to the blooms, before answering.
"He was older than I, but never grew up. His bond vanished for a month and when she returned, the energy she gave him to keep him alive, well, he died cause she wasn't there. Now she's a recluse, only talking to Rynn. She rarely leaves home. She won't talk to other feien bonders." He sighed softly. "He was so sweet...and taller than I was I was little. He could hold me and I felt so warm..."
Ian flew off, saddened.
Rynn blinked. It was still a touchy subject. "Sevvie, I lost the gemstone, but recently I got it back. I think I should give it to him, don't you?"

"Gemstone? That's what they turn into when they die, isn't it..." he said, remembering one of the notices in the shop. He shivered, fervently hoping his never did. "I don't know.. what can he do with Celaien's gemstone? It seems a bit strange to give him his love's corpse as a present, even if it is a gem... I didn't mean to upset him..." He looked in the direction Ian had flown, feeling rather guilty.

Rynn sipped the cocoa, swallowing the last bit. "Well, feiens can merge with feien gemstones, gain their powers, even a bit of their looks. Or, they can be resurrected. I would hope to get him resurrected, but if I can't, then Ian will want to merge with him. I've always known this. Cel was all he talked about."

"Ahh," he said, draining the last of his as well. "I think perhaps you should give it to him, and let him choose which path he'd take. I'm sure he'll be happier, at least, knowing for sure that the gemstone is in his hands rather than some stranger's."

Rynn nodded. "I think so too." She looked to where Ian flew off too. "Ian! Please....come back!"
Ian returned, his eyes red. He settled down on the table, looking at her. "What?"
She reached into her pocket, pulling something out. She unfolded her hand at his level, revealing a familar gemstone. She watched Ian for his reaction.
Ian's eyes went wide. "Cel!" he cried, tackling the gemstone. He hugged it tightly, nearly crying.
"I was waiting for the right time to give it to you, Ian."
Ian only nodded, feeling the warmth from the stone. "Oh Cel..."

He blinked for a moment - she'd been keeping it in her pocket?? That was quickly forgotten, though, as the feien's reaction overwhelmed him. His throat tightened and his eyes teared up from the emotions of the little fairy. Hastily drying them on his shirt sleeve and clearing his throat, he looked down. So that was love... He cleared his throat again. "I'm happy for you Ian, that you have him back in some way at least," he said, his voice still a bit odd-sounding.

Ian looked up at Sevvie, nodding. "Thanks. I rather have him back, not his gemstone though." He sighed, holding the gem close as he got up.
"Sorry I hid it from you, Ianios. But I wanted to surprise you..." Rynn started, getting a nod from Ian. "I'm sorry, love."
"At least it's a start. I have him back, in some form. Maybe now I can bring him back."

"Indeed. And having some form of him is better than nothing..." Sevvie said, trailing off quietly. He shook his head as if dispelling some unhappy thought. "Still, it's getting a bit late, and I imagine you'll want to get home before it gets too cold out. Perhaps you'd like a cup of cocoa for the trip home?" He stood, aware that he sounded perhaps a bit more formal than he'd intended. "Thanks for coming by, again, I was truly glad of your company and I'm sure the little one did as well."

Rynn shook her head. "No thanks, that's ok." She stood up, letting Ian fly into her pocket, holding the gemstone. She patted Sevvie's hand. "It's alright." Changing Aria back into her bowl, the bloom seemed to droop a little. She wasn't ready to go, it seemed.
"Thank you for a lovely time. Feel free to swing by sometime, alright?" she said, heading for the door, the bowl in her hands.

"I will," he promised, giving her a friendly (and careful, as she had Ian and Aria about her person) hug goodbye. "Be safe, okay?" he said, walking with her to the door.

"We will. Goodnight, Sevvie." She smiled,hugging back and heading out. "Come visit soon!" she called back.

"We will," he called back, waving until she was out of sight. The wintery chill then drove him inside finally, and he shut the thick door and returned to his bloom.
