Her smile turned knowing, an idea presenting itself with a dual purpose. [color=#008e02]“I may have learned a thing or two. I can show you later.”[/color] With Sylaise’s companionship came her knowledge, or at least what knowledge this piece of the Evanaris remembered. Megara had become an attentive student when it came to her healing arts.

Hope, she wouldn’t let go again.

It still didn’t excuse him and while she was incandescently happy to be in his arms, laughing with him. Kissing him. Meg felt caught in a tug of war between the highs and the comfortable lows that had become her everyday. [color=#008e02]“Mmmhmmm. That doesn’t mean you’re off the hook. I’m still mad, even if.. Still can’t believe it… Maybe I’ll hit you again in the morning.”[/color] She’d grin, nuzzling into his neck until he’d announce the call for dinner.

After helping him up, she’d follow him through to the mess, a half-step behind. As they passed through the final doorway, Meg would shift her grip to interlock her fingers with his, a reassuring three squeezes before she met the company.
