[ for a few moments, neptune feels almost whole again.
venus can feel the black patches on her, the mud and dried dirt where the water has long since stopped flowing. but she can also feel neptune in her, in the places where the river keeps running even through the drought, and it's reassuring like nothing else has been in this place. neptune's here. even if she's hurting and empty and drained, neptune is here.
she stays as long as she can, pouring all the emotions she has into her, and when neptune finally taps out she pulls herself away as gracefully as she can manage. she wipes at her eyes, opens her mouth to say something, and remembers to pull out the communicator just in time. ]
