what's tomorrow without you?

The dust swirling around Heidinn finally began to settle. Tenshi was more than pleased with their turnout. From Vidarr’s sisters to his followers to the Stargazer, their numbers were slowly building. While there is a bittersweet twinge in her chest that perhaps she doesn’t fit in completely, she ignores it. The only way for her to fit in is to try. Which is what she does. Learn his tongue, his customs, his gods, his family. All of it. While her own tongue is not from this land, she is willing to forget it and all the bad blood that it comes with for him.

Him is what is on her mind when he seeks her out. Even before he arrives, she can sense him. His being, presence, spirit. It puts all of her nerves on end. She barely looks up when he approaches because just looking at his bright gaze sends her stomach into somersaults. Tenshi cannot believe that he is her’s. All her’s. Of course, she is open, relaxed, understanding. There is room in her heart to love any and all mistakes he makes.

What isn’t a mistake is staying. Staying to be with him and live on this mountain. Finally, a mountain to once more call home. Her heart is full of joy as she listens to his proposition. A curious look crosses her expression as she glances at him. The smile, the flicker of excitement. “What goes on in that mind of yours?” She says softly as she closes the distance between them. Tenshi can only imagine what he has planned. Reaching out to plant a soft kiss upon his cheek, she walks by and brushes her shoulders against his. “Lead the way, Konungr,” Tenshi purrs as she bats her lashes at him and waits for him to start their adventure.
