⦓ Turns out having other people around who I adore equally doesn't make me stop missing her... #yearning #mourning ⦔
Thass arrrright. Iunno. Th' town ya met me at was prretty uhh...heavy on severrance of th' dead n' all that. Grrief as somethin' to move thrrough and how to not make spirrits lingerr. Talked to th' taverrnkeep about it sometimes. She uh. She had this necklace, frrom herr old moirrail. Said she kept it cuz it helped rremind herr that she'd gotten t' know them and love them. She always said goodbye to theirr picturre on th' wall, too. Stuff like that. She said it was imporrtant to rrememberr th' folks who helped shape us.
⦓ Well... I'm certainly not at any risk of forgetting. And if I ever am, no doubt I'll be reminded... But I understand. ⦔ ⦓ ... It probably isn't good that I don't even use certain rooms in the hive because they make me think of how badly I miss her, is it... ⦔
Prrolly not, no. Point is... Might be worrth lookin' at makin' a healthierr rrelationship with that grrief, yeah?
⦓ .. Probably. I... I never really... ⦔ ⦓ ... I guess I never thought I'd lose her. And now, I've died myself a few times, but I'm still here, and she still isn't. It feels surreal in the worst way. I don't know how to make it healthier... I don't know how to... I don't know... Maybe I should make a grave after all. Do you think it would help...? ⦔
Iunno. It might. Might not. It might help ya with...yannow, th' physical aspect? Like .. havin' somewherre t' visit. To put th' idea of herr, yeah? Don't gotta be a grrave. It could be an object.
⦓ Given that all the places I associate with her too strongly I can't bear to visit... I don't know. What if I make a grave and I just... Can't bear to go there either? ⦔
Thass okay. I c'n go therre ferr ya, orr somethin'. Little things at a time, yeah? It just... Iunno. Havin' somewherre t' go and "talk" to 'em c'n be helpful. And it's okay if it isn't helpful- we c'n trry find somethin' that is, yannow?
⦓ ... Thank you, Thisle... I'm so lucky to have you. ⦔
Rreckon I c'n just about say th' same ferr ya, moonbeam.
⦓ Oh, love... Thank you so much, truly. ⦔
