[ could is damning enough for elysia. could is something that is able to turn into would, and it's a little frightening to think about, but she won't because yves has a future with someone who can promise him one. it's more than enough to keep her from continuing the thought because elysia, for all her thousands of years of waiting with her memories, is someone whose future has been lost long ago.
and no one has ever asked her to consider choosing a future. what would it mean to choose a future that meant she'd choose everything she hasn't before?
she is content with her present, and everything yves says does more to settle things for her. ]
His shyness is going to make things more difficult for him.
[ they are naturally affectionate, but if that's the decision, she isn't going to argue it. adolphe does his best to stay away from groups of people anyway, so it might end up being fine. ]
It's okay. We had that one night. I don't need more.
[ it's a ridiculous thing to say with her arms still around him, but need and want are different things. ]
I wonder if he was thinking of you when he was asking me all these questions a while ago. Do you know he asked me what I'd do if the person I loved most asked me to stop loving everyone else?
