What Was Once Lost

"Listen to me talk," 'but read my thoughts.'
Svetlana would feel a gentle flutter in her heart as Leo spoke. He had been hoping she'd come back? Tail would slowly begin to wag behind her, a feeling of excitement rising within. The young woman would listen to him speak, confirming what she had suspected. So he had taken over Fiori in his mother's stead, though she was glad to hear that the woman was still about as a member of the council. "It is good to hear that she's still here with you. Congrats on the promotion by the way~" A grin was added to her words.

A grin that would fade to a look of surprise when he popped a question. A member of the council? Her? She would think over it for just a moment before speaking up. "It'd be an honor, Leo." She would glance to Korrin, and the fox, sensing her meaning, would chuckle before scurrying off. Svetlana would wait until the fox had disappeared before lifting her gaze back to Leo, taking a breath and speaking again.

"Do you... maybe want to take a walk together?" The female would feel her cheeks heat up.
