Her green eyes grow in shine and intensity, her lips bruised from her own teeth.
(Green skin glimmers in the light, white dress flutters in the wind.)
"You still love her, right?" She sounds furious, but she is far from that. Her eyebrows furrow and her mouth twists into a frown. "Right?" He looks away and tries to gather his emotions. Tries to pray to every god he knows for guidance and forgiveness. (Water flies about as she twirls about in the vast ocean. She looks at him and laughs, her mouth turned up in a wide grin. He thanks the gods for all they have given him.)
"I...yes." He curses himself for pausing. The look in her eye breaks his heart more than anything.
"What if I love you too?" she whispers. "Could you forget about her then?" (Black eyes brimming with affection stare at him with amusement as a hand is placed on his cheek. I think I love you, she whispers.)
"No."
She gives him a wry smile. "I'm not one to give up," she replies. He nods in agreement and her face becomes a mix of happiness and confusion. (Do you feel the same? she continues on. He feels the words leaving his mind and he is unable to speak. He nods mutely and her face is a mix of great joy and sadness. Irikah, he says.)
"Jane," he says.
"I'm already part of the game," she tells him, her voice cracking. Her arms shake with the weight of the universe as she places her trembling hands on his chest. "And I play for keeps. Think you can handle that?"
(Thane, she echoes.)
"Thane," she echoes.
He takes a deep breath and forgets to remember.
"Yes."
