Winds of Change - Siptah - June 15, 2022
For @Makono? <3
Siptah had been seeing less and less of his sisters, and they were all growing apart. Satsu's death had not helped. The young Prince came to Makono's bedchamber, and he cleared his throat quietly. "Makono... Walk with me?" He would take them out of the tunnels and up onto the mesa, should she agree.
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - June 15, 2022
anybody else had been sent away with a moody look.
today, makono briefly sulked. she examined crushed lavender petals on the furs of her bed. she thought of many things and nothing, all at once. she deeply inhaled the crushed flower. rolling onto her side as her nose remained hovered over the small floral pile.
"makono...walk with me?"
lapis gaze meeting icy blues. half a mind to usher him off, half a mind wondering why he didn't have better things to do than bother her.
but she rose, silent and following. smelling of the lavender she had so eagerly crushed upon her bed.
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - June 15, 2022
Siptah barely knew either of his sisters — he had not spent very much time with them. The silence between them was awkward, at least to him, and once they were in the open air, he broke it. "How have you been, since...?" He didn't want to finish. He thought it a foolish question, and wished he hadn't asked it. Even so, he looked at her expectantly, awaiting an answer, for he didn't know what else to talk about.
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - June 16, 2022
he looked at her and she harshly looked away.
such a stupid question, she thought. it raked at the fresh wounds of her young heart, it dared to tumble down the walls that she had been given lessons to build.
her gaze remained away from him.
as expected,a scape answer.
you?
she did not know what she expected.
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - June 17, 2022
She would not look at him. The Prince sighed softly, frowning, and was it just him, or were her words almost... cold? He felt anger prickle within him, but he pushed it down. Taking a deep breath, he told her honestly, "It's hard, but... I visit her every day. I pray, and... and I grieve." He shifted then, so she would have to look at him. "Have you been to see her?"
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - June 21, 2022
something ugly dared to bubble in her chest, she hushed it. tried to soften her own anxiety as he dared to position himself so she must look at him.
i have. i have even lead prayers to osiris with father.
she wondered if this was his attempt to challenge her, to think that she did not care as deeply as he did. disgust built in her mouth as she kept her face composed.
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - June 22, 2022
Siptah didn't notice his sister's displeasure, and he hadn't meant any harm. He was happy with her response, and he smiled slightly. "Good, I'm glad to hear that." Then, "What else have you been doing? Have you met the soldiers yet?" Really, he just wanted to catch up. He didn't know how much time they would have together, so he wanted to make it matter while he could.
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - June 22, 2022
now this, she could discuss. a new softness found her. excitement, perhaps.
i met the big one. glaukos,she drew his name out, lips briefly curled before they dropped down.
he will be my personal guard to mereo.this said in the tone of a woman gossiping over tea.
what would her brother make of it?
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - June 23, 2022
Siptah's eyes widened at Makono's words. "You're... you're going to Mereo? When?" And why, he wanted to ask, but he knew better. Would she come back? "Is Ash going with you?" Siptah wondered how it might be, to have both siblings away from Akashingo.
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - June 27, 2022
when we are ready for visitors,she told him, composed despite the soft prickle in her at the mention of her sister. she loved her deeply, but this was not a front on which she wished for her company or competition.
and no. she will probably go to brecheliant. i wanted to go to mereo and father approved.
need she say anymore?
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - June 29, 2022
This was all news for Siptah. His brow wrinkled, and he gave a quiet sigh before nodding. Both of his sisters were leaving. He supposed it didn't really matter — he would be staying here, and learning more how to be an eventual Pharaoh. Quietly, he said, "I'll miss you." Would she miss him?
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - July 04, 2022
"i'll miss you."
and she could not explain why, but she had not expected to hear it. as if he might shut her out with grief or frustration. or perhaps she had projected — for she found her throat too tight to say the words back, mind too rattled.
i doubt it will be long,unable to reciprocate and instead she sought to soothe him.
maybe we can do something before i go.
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - July 10, 2022
Siptah did not quite know what else to say. He just nodded, albeit a bit numbly, and he scored his claws against the redstone floor. "Sure," he murmured, glancing away. "We can do whatever you'd like." They'd not exactly had the chance to do anything fun yet, so he wondered what she might offer.
RE: Winds of Change - Makono - July 13, 2022
wanna fade and get something new? :D
i'll think on it,and she meant it, lips briefly curling for a timid smile.
silently, she leaned to bounce their shoulders against each other. content to continue their walk wherever her brother may lead them.
RE: Winds of Change - Siptah - July 14, 2022
Yes please! I'm actually going to get a hunting thread started soon <3
Siptah had nothing elaborate planned — just a walk to the top of the mesa, where they could relax together and simply talk. It would be a good day, away from the hustle and bustle, and it would be nice to skip their classes for once. When they would return, Siptah found himself feeling closer to Makono, which had been his plan all along. Better to know her now, before she left.
