[Same mood... Lucas is also clean and free, and he moves over to sit next to her where she sits on the sand that betrayed him not that long ago. He also has a bottle of wine, but he will be a good host and offer it out to her.]
I didn't think to bring glasses, but if you'd like any...
[It has been a long day, and there's just the tiniest flicker of something hesitant in the vibes before he nods.]
I will be, yes. [At least when he says it, he feels pretty convinced.] ...You'll be returning to your home as well, yes? Will it be alright for you there?
[IT IS TRULY THE FUNNIEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME FOR HIM HE'S JUST BACK IN HEAVEN AGAIN, STILL A SERIAL KILLER.]
Embarrassing is a word for it. [The first person back.........] But I'm glad, then. I truly hope that you're able to live in peace once the threat you're facing has been dealt with.
[it's fine. in another life she's really comfortable with this, he's just doing a Dark Urge speedrun.]
My world is not entirely a peaceful one. There's some sort of crisis or invasion or calamity every few decades.
[but she's not really faint hearted about these kinds of things, either.]
The truth is, I find the idea of having to make a life for myself in peace far more frightening than any battle I could face. But it would be nice to have the opportunity to try. [it is not something she has ever had before.]
But he just nods at that, and there's both empathy and something sad but understanding in the vibes.]
It can be a difficult idea to adjust to. [Peace. He says it softly, and sighs.] But I do hope that the option remains for you. You deserve to enjoy that peace and tranquility someday, whatever form it may come in and however you may find it.

That will do just fine.

I do enjoy that we won't have lost contact with one another entirely, but I'll miss having the option to come share a drink with you like this.

[sighing a little, drained. it has been a long day.]
Will you be alright, Lucas? Going home?
no subject
I will be, yes. [At least when he says it, he feels pretty convinced.] ...You'll be returning to your home as well, yes? Will it be alright for you there?
no subject
The situation is not necessarily safe or good, but I have some confident we'll prevail. Is it the same for you, perhaps?
no subject
Similar, yes. It's neither safe nor good, but I do have faith that it can be fixed.
[He is going to badend his whole island.]
You have what you need to succeed, then? I wouldn't wish to see anyone back here too soon, after all.
no subject
I couldn't say for sure, but I think so. Battles are battles. It would be embarrassing to return.
