Love had plucked a rose, then de thorned it, and then smiled. "Ah, thank you. Another lovely bloom." He took it, studying her. "So why did you pause there, for a minute? Is something wrong?"

Tsuki's tail wagged happily, "Your welcome." But then she paused again, thinking of how to answer that, her grey eyes raising to his. "No, nothing is wrong. I was just...thinking about something is all. And I also thought I heard my caravan calling for me, but they are probably just talking about me again..." Her ears drooped a little as she lowered her eyes with a sigh, shaking her head again before turning her eyes to him once more, forcing a smile.

Love watches her, his head tilted. "Talking about you...?" He plucks another rose, almost absently, looking at her. "What do you mean?" He seemed concerned as he strips the thorns from it.

Tsuki at first seemed lost in thought, though she had heard him, lowering her eyes towards one rose, ears tilting back as she could sense his concern. "Gypsy caravans don't generally like outsiders and while my mother had been their healer as well as her predecesors, she fell in love with my father whom wasn't part of our caravan. That is taboo basically among my people, and they would have turned her away until she had me, my sister, and my younger brother." Raising her eyes to him, there was a sad smile on her lips, almost ironic in a small way.
"They believe me to be bad luck and cursed since death seems so common around me. But, I still try to save as many as I can, I made a promise to myself that I would, no matter what they might do to me." Taking a calming breath, she shook her head, forcing another smile. "I'm sorry, I don't want to burden you with my troubles since you have your own." She bowed slightly to him, straightening as her ears laid back all the way, brushing her hair back over her shoulder.

Love listens to her, blinking slowly. "Death is common around all healers, surely, for it is impossible to save everyone, and more, often, die then can be saved, for when battling diseases, accidents, and old age... No one can stop them all." He seemed lost as to this attitude.

Tsuki held herself a little tighter, her eyes remaining lowered as she straightened. "Thats true, but they still blame me for the deaths...Like a few weeks ago our caravan was attacked by those who hate my people and my fiance died while saving his brother. When I was five my faternal twin sister grew ill and I got to watch her wither away..Then my mom and younger brother fell ill, and they died. My father blew his brains out and tried to make me join him in his suicide. For just all of that I was exiled until I was sixteen to make sure I was't contaminated with disease..." Looking away, she fell silent for a few moments, getting lost in thought before shaking her head.
"I promised myself I would take over my mothers work and become better than her, that I would save everyone I could. I can't help that I'm still not stone cold to death, no pun intended. If anything I think it better i'm not..." Again she drifted, a few tears rolling down her cheeks, bowing her head as she forced down the memories.

Love drops the roses, unthinking, and pulls her into a hug, holding her tight. "Tsuki, Tsuki! That's utterly unfair of them!" He tries to comfort her. "To blame an innocent of things she cannot possibly be at fault for... it's wrong!" He was horrified. "You are a good heart, and a good soul, and don't deserve that at all!"

Tsuki's ears twitched as she heard the roses hit the ground, eyes widening as he pulled her to him and held her tightly. A couple of tears fell before she got over the shock, smiling sadly at what he was saying, touched as a blush spread across her face. "Love...." She had no idea what to say, so instead rested her head on his chest, her arms wrapping around his neck. "Thank you...Hearing you say that means so much to me..." She said softly, looking up to him with a smile, wiping away her tears as she rose up and kissed his cheek, hugging him as she felt her cheeks grow hot. "Thank you. I..I just don't know what to say, I'm touched...No one has ever said what you have."

Love hugs her back, then reaches up to gently grip her chin. "Listen carefully to me, Tsuki. You are a GOOD person. You care a lot. I can tell that. You do not, in anyway, have ANY reason to believe they are right. And you should not be hurting so much. What they are doing to you... It is wrong. As wrong as any of the fools who attack the Romani just for being Romani, claiming they must be thieves and murderers. It's not at all true."

Tsuki raised her eyes to his as he gripped her chin, forcing the blush to fade from her cheeks. She listened to him, her eyes widening ever so slightly, a modest smile on her lips. "Love..." She knew what her body wanted to do, making herself stop, before she could move. "Thank you, more than words could ever say, thank you." She smiled a little wider, hugging him once more to show how grateful she was. When she pulled back, she crouched down and picked up the roses he had dropped, her tail wagging happily as she straightened after a few moments. Holding the bouqet out to him, her blush had returned, grey eyes twinkling as her ears twitched, the sunlight catching the white in them.

Love blinks and listens to her, studying her as she responds. "I am glad, and more then, to help you, Tsuki. I hate to see any one, let alone such a kind heart, in pain. I of course had to help." He smiles warmly as she hands him his roses back. "Thank you. I do need these..." He gives a quick check over of them for damage.

Tsuki smiled almost shyly at his words, blushing as she lowered her arms to her sides after he took the roses. "Your welcome, they are all fine right? Should I gather more for you?" She asked, her ears perking up hopefully. His warm smile was enough to make her melt a little, her mind realizing this fact and so she wanted something, anything, to distract herself from her feelings before she did something she might regret. Just remember, he loves everyone....and thats alright with me. She smiled as she had lowered her eyes, getting lost in thought, looking at a rose distantly.

Love blinks, and considers the roses. "No, I think I have enough, but thank you kindly..." He gives her a hug on the shoulders, then sighs. "So I should head back in, I must deliver these where they are intended, to help some one's pain fade...."

Tsuki gave an understanding nod, blushing at his hug, her ears laying back a little. "Oh, alright. It's no trouble." She smiled, curtseying to him. "I enjoyed my time with you Love, thank you. I wouldn't want to keep you from helping others." She seemed like she wanted to say something more, but she bit her lower lip and bowed her head for a moment, at a loss. Taking a calming breath, she raised her eyes to him again, her ears flatening down in her hesitation. "If...If I'm not in the way, or being a bother, can...well, can I join you? I-I mean, I've already imposed on you enough, and I know that you may not wish to have my company, so I understand if you say no." She was fiddeling with her choker again due to her nerves, her tail curlilng around itself as her eyes lowered once more.

Love smiles a little, then sighs at her words. "It's not that I don't. It's that I'm not sure the one I need to go help will be up for people she does not know right now." He lays a hand on her shoulder. "Otherwise I'd say yes. But in this situation... I must politely decline." He smiles warmly at her. "But I do hope to see you soon, Tsuki, you are a kind person and a good friend." He nods quietly.
