Firefly Glen [PHE]So, don't say I'm not ready, 'til I fall on my sword

closer, now, to him she could see how he too was decorated. her kohl-rimmed gaze slanted in a way that revealed her glee, to see such a thing—few could appreciate the fanciful things her people enjoyed. the colors there brought out his features more—black and blue made the gold of his gaze all the more riveting! more gifts came to mind for him, for his time and for his kindness toward her. they had interacted only in passing during the day of healing, but now she could come to know his heart.

she gestured to the ornament he wears, singular unlike the many feathers.  your pearl is lovely. it is like a little moon! are you a man of the sea? by the look of him, she would not have guessed! he seemed a man of the forest with trees that could touch the sky—but she suspected there was much more to the one before her than the way that he seemed!
