[ she reads neptune's next words carefully, letting each sink in, feeling the weight of every letter. the eyes on her face finally open, bit by bit, and she gazes directly into neptune's.
there are a lot of things in her eyes. an anger she's stopped holding back, one she's grabbed and taken control of. a sadness shaking down to her core, even if she's standing up straight and trying to let it pass until neptune's safe. a kind smile, bleeding up from her lips into her gaze. affection, pure and warm. ]
i'm sorry. and i think... you don't get to tell me i can't apologize for that. i'm so, so sorry, and i understand if you feel like you want to scream and scream until something finds us because i feel a little like that, too?
but i'm here now. and i can promise you, and i really mean that, nobody can make you be good anymore.
if you want to be bad, then let's both be bad it's not too late.
[ her right hand drops down again, and from this distance it's not hard to brush forward against neptune's fingertips. if the other girl wants to grab it, they're right there - and if she doesn't, then that's fine too. neptune's at least a little easier to deal with like that, even if it means her hand might get slapped. ]
