Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sasha was satisfied with the response that Clerise gave, giving the other woman's hand a tight, reassuring squeeze. "You're my friend," she said softly, one corner of her mouth lifting, "and I would do whatever... you know, whatever I could to help you."

The young woman grew silent when Clerise made mention of something brewing. Sasha's dark brows slashed down in a frown, lips pursing as she gave that comment some thought.

"I'll... I'll do my best. I ah. I promise." She ached to ask what was going on, but at the moment she wasn't sure she wanted to know. Too much had happened in the most recent past, and Sasha didn't feel like she could personally handle much more. Not yet. Not now.

"You promise, too, Clerise." Sasha looked worried.

Sasha gave Clerise a gentle smile, a soft brush of her thumb against the other woman's cheek before she pulled away. "You aren't."

Things were difficult. Clerise had even said that things were brewing. Their line of work was dangerous. These quiet, warm moments didn't come often.

"If you need anything, let me know." She leaned forward and pressed her cheek against the other woman's forehead before pulling away completely.

After giving Clerise one long, last look, Sasha quietly left the redhead to herself.
