Theris held his skewer carefully, waiting for it to cool off as he followed after Lycoris. " I miss some things already, but..." He took a few tentative bites of chicken, chewing carefully. He had never been a picky eater, and now everything he ate had begun to taste equally good to him. It was a step up from porridge, at any rate. " I accepted five years ago that things were about to change. There was no going back." He turned the skewer slowly in circles, holding it with both gloved hands and looking at it as if it were a curiosity. " I suppose it is a bit lonely." ★ yes good dress up Theris

He was a brave man. Not everyone could go through what he did and still come out with a relatively positive outlook. It wasn't extremely bright, no, but he didn't view things like the entire world came crashing down around him. Just another difference between the two of them. In many ways he was also lucky. Five years gave him time to think, reflect, and prepare for what might come next. His incarceration was not the same as most other prisoners due to the station of his family. It wasn't to say that it was not difficult or rough at times, as all sentences tended to be, but he had spell privileges that many others did not. "Mother often speaks of loneliness being a part of age. Those who are strong use that loneliness to become stronger and those who are weak use it as an excuse to stay weak. I find myself unable to completely believe her words, though at the same time it does make sense. If we are lonely, we work harder to achieve greater things. ...I hope you use that loneliness and your freedom to find whatever it is you are looking for. Most do not get that opportunity."★ theris lysander
★ he would be the ideal dress up doll because he wouldn't complain much <3 |

Those who are strong use their loneliness to become stronger. Had the queen been speaking about herself, or trying to teach her daughter a lesson? The idea of placing such importance on being strong rather than being weak had never sat well with Theris. " Have you been lonely?" he asked quietly, spinning the meat skewer between his hands a little faster. He took a few more careful bites, but his attention remained on Lycoris. ★ he'd be cute in a dress

Being alone and feeling lonely were two very different things. Ever since she was just a child there were always people around to take care of her. As she got old enough to develop the desire to spend time with people, there were only a few people her mother allowed her to be with. Adell, Theris... Xara, to an extent, but she was just a maid... ...so was she lonely? Did she know what true loneliness felt like yet? "..." The last bite of her chicken was taken just before they arrived at the inn. Staring at it for a moment, she shook her head a bit and walked to the front door. It would only take her a few seconds longer to reach her room. Before she did head up the stairs, she glanced back at the man who had his freedom returned to him. "Every day of my life." A nod followed her words and she ascended towards her room. For the first time in a long while, she felt like writing. ★ theris lysander

Theris wasn't sure what to do with the skewer once he finished the meat, so he held it awkwardly in his hand, automatically going to open the front door of the inn for Lycoris out of pure habit. Every day of my life." You know where to find me," Theris said quickly, stumbling over his words a little in the effort to get them out before she fled, " if you ever want someone to talk to. Any time." And then she was gone. Abandoning his intentions of finding a map, Theris shook his head. Back to work. ★ d'awwww
