[Alear doesn't let go; she doesn't think she could even if she wanted to, but something about that gesture makes her heart jump to her throat. The unfinished sentence, everything about this--]

I won't. I'm going to look forward to the future, and to what will come of it. Because I know we're going to win.

[She should let go. She doesn't want to let go or move her hand, or do everything, despite the tension that feels like it's building. Towards what? Alear doesn't know, but...

...]


But...hey. Mind if I give something to you? Not a new scar or anything, but something else.

[Alear has always kept the Pact Ring close to her; she always does. She keeps it wrapped up and on her person, as a precious memory and something to share with others, should the day come. It's cultural significance isn't lost on her, but Alear wants to derive her own meaning from it.

And...

She doesn't know if she's found it, but she's found someone she wants to give it to. That's meaning enough, right?

She only pulls away to grab something out of her pocket; what she holds out to him is a wrapped up box. A little messily wrapped, but still enough to carefully secure it's contents.]


Now, you're not allowed to open this until we've won, okay? I'm gonna hold you to it. But...when we win, you can unwrap it and come talk to me. Does that sound fine to you?

[Yeah, yeah, she didn't see it and she isn't smirking slightly. Nope. Not at all, all in your imagination.]

I appreciate it, Griss. Just think of it as something else to look forward to, when our battle is finally won.

[Because it will be, and soon. Alear has a pretty strong feeling about that.]
