[ Knock-knock -
- or something like the creak of city gates of her wanting to reach out to anyone else in the hive that will respond. ]
( These ability we have aside from communication. I require a trainer for my own.
And a decent explanation of what they are and their pitfalls. I am not familiar with this kind of... magic. )
[ Yeah she can't think of another word for it. ]

[ Two minutes ago Rust would've—if not accepted what she's saying, at least granted the premise. Now it meets with doubt. ] ( How do you know? )
no subject
( Because I might have a presence to myself, but not one that invokes such intense joy in others simply because I finished part of a relay.
And I could not ignore the fallout that came afterwards. I am not one inclined to feel... nothing. )

Then again here they are, the voices in each other's heads.
How often did people in the nest go crazy? Compatibility with the symbiote, what was that a euphemism for? Fuck, what should losing your mind matter, when it's the end goal?
He very nearly misses the point. He's certainly late to it. ] ( Nothing. )
[ A pang, from him: longing twisted in on itself, unacknowledged. ] ( And you're not comfortable with that. )
no subject
What on earth was he so worried about? ]
( What good am I as a ruler if I cannot feel enough to connect with those that need me to understand their suffering?
No, no I am not comfortable with it. It could be dangerous, if I cannot even feel fear enough to save myself should I be left in that state. )

Not that—what? He stills, mentally, waits for the thought to emerge. Not that he wants her dead. Not that they can spare her.
Carefully: ] ( How long did it last? )

Queen Victoria, the image supplies. Consumed by her grief. That she punished her country with her absence as she wallowed in her misery. Something that does more than horrifies Lakshmi is the tinge, she turns away from her people when they cry out. ]
( ... Near half an hour, a little less. Hard to measure as it was happening, and it is something I want to monitor as well, as it was happening it felt... endless. )
no subject
(An hourglass wouldn't be hard to make.) ]
( Could you do it to me? ) [ Impossible to pass the question off as innocent, but he does his best not to lean into it too hard, not to let her feel the honed point. ]
no subject
[ It's a consideration of process, more than anything. Perhaps if she could invoke a feeling again? Use that instead of just making them feel what - she normally felt?
A consideration and where they speak, there's a the flush of her sense of self at the present: being at ease with him, the constant wariness of her surroundings, the ticking frustration of being connected to Elena and the desperate walls she has up against it, a overwhelming concern for - near everything close to her that she cares about, and then back to the problem at hand. ]

( It just came over you. ) [ The feeling of a sigh held in. Of skirting the edge of something blinding, grasping, and familiar. Slow release. ] ( Alright. )
[ His thoughts falter. He's not a fucking shrink. Maybe this is all hair-splitting, maybe they've already succumbed to mass delusion or maybe it's a matter of time. Share and share alike. ] ( We could go riding. )
no subject
(You know how to ride? Truly? )
[ And all at once those flicker of other emotions is shoved down with a warmly radiating pleasure at the thought. A longing, almost - she has missed having someone to ride with. Not that she minded teaching so many others. But still just to be able to openly enjoy that with someone else? ]
no subject
( And it ain't an excursion. )

Which part of the colony did Texas come from originally? I know Spain holds as much sway in some parts as the English once did, and the French that section - New Orleans was it? )
[ As for that - ]
( And those that can't mix business with pleasure have no sense of either. )
