restless tides

The beat of silence that stretched between them was noticeable. She could tell he was considering the proper words to respond with. Shifting her weight slightly, one brow arched out of curiosity when he did speak. This time, it would not take Tenshi a considerable amount of time to reply. Deep down, the moment her eyes landed on the long-lost heir, she knew exactly what to say.

"You seem to have been able to make a good life for yourself out there. Seeing the splendid condition your form is in," sneaking the compliment in was second nature as her steel blues roved over his coat for a moment. "You were once regarded as a force, someone to be feared, I could not imagine that has since disappeared," her thickened accent felt comfortable around him. Her answer hadn't exactly been straightforward, but it would be enough for him to understand. They both knew of each other's past and it would be foolish of her to assume he couldn't provide her with a sense of purpose.

A light chuckle leaves her lips as she shakes her head gently. "We should not trust each other at all, at least for now," Tenshi's bold gaze lifted to his face as her expression turned a bit more serious. "Trust is something that is built over time and I could never ask or assume anyone to trust me the day we meet," standing still as the statue standing before her, one would think the two behemoths were indeed mountains. Unperturbed by their surroundings, the squall of gulls, the rustling of a salty breeze, nothing seemed to interfere with the space between them.
