Plenty to go Around

Azzurra wondered if Satira really understood just how much her motivation and reassurances meant to her. Being able to grin and talk about the things that had felt so daunting and insurmountable before, feeling like she had an ally in this whole mess of betrayal and heartbreak... It meant more to her than she'd ever really be able to describe. She was beginning to realize that this was what having a friend was like. She had only ever really had Balthier until she met Erys and even the pale, color-streaked male was more of a source of comfort than friendship. Or maybe he was a friend, just in a different way. She had certainly never had another girl to be friends with at the very least and Tira was showing her what she had been missing all this time. Her cheeks hurt from smiling as Satira reiterated how her brother didn't have a right to treat her like that and how much more she was worth than he had made her feel. It was things that she had struggled to realize on her own and it made her wonder if she would have realized the situation she was in sooner if she had someone like Tira to help encourage her and make her see the truth. There was no going back and changing things now so she didn't like to wish and ponder over what could have been, but it did make her wish that she had sought out friendship in someone other than Balthier sooner than she did.

She chuckled and nodded as Tira pointed out that she had a lot of freedom now that she didn't have before, but when Tira asked what she would do with all this new free time Azzie wasn't really sure what to say. There were so many things that she had wanted to do that she felt like she hadn't been able to do until recently. Some of those things she had already accomplished in making this trip out here on her own and sharing the intimate moments she had with Erys. She was enjoying living for herself and letting life lead her to new and exciting things and as she was pondering what she might want to do next she glanced down to where their paws were entwined between them and that familiar dance and flutter of butterflies in her stomach told her what she wanted. Her cheeks flushed at the thought as she brought her sapphire gaze back up to Tira's brighter blue gaze, a shy grin tugging at her lips.

"Well... I don't know exactly what I'm going to do with my time in the future other than just... continuing to figure out who I am without him, but... I at least know what I want to be doing right now." She shifted a little closer to Tira as she spoke and as soon as her sentence ended she punctuated it by leaning forward, tapping into this wild streak of confidence that Tira inspired in her as she pressed her lips to the smaller girl's. Immediately it felt like she was picking back up from where they had left off on the mountain cliffs with that easy attraction and playful lust flaring back to life as if they never parted. In the brief seconds before she gave into that desire to kiss the pretty girl she wondered if she was moving too fast or pressing too hard, but as soon as she felt Tira's soft lips against hers she didn't hold that worry any longer. This was exactly what she wanted right now and the longer she kissed Tira the more she felt herself sinking into the feeling of her. She started to press a little deeper into that kiss as she shifted closer again, her side brushing Tira's while her eyes drifted closed, a soft, excited whine escaping her.
