[action] D: noooo /protects him from the sun :C

[She's not very good at explaining it well, but it's been easiest with him.

The best she ever came up with was when she told him it was kind of like the shadow on the pavement when you walk, only the Calling is a constant shadow, and they don't always want different things. The angel often wants isolation. It's very cold. It's aware of things that must end and that she must bring the end to it.

She and Adrien discussed a painting the one time, fire and ice, and what happens when you're one or the other.

But what happens if you have both? she asked him, and she didn't need to.

They both knew the answer. They both knew that that's where the madness lies.]


It doesn't bother you at all? Having dreams about it? I mean, I guess if you've been having them recurringly... [There's a small, concerned frown on her face as she thinks over it, and if it means anything. If it does mean anything, why. If it's connected to how shortly he fell through after he was brought back from death.] Okay, that's... all I wanted to know.

[Sarah doesn't need to know details. She doesn't need to know the whole story. As long as he's okay, that's what matters most to her. She smiles at him a little sadly.] We were preparing ourselves for more hurt along the way, remember? It's just something that happens when you care. I wouldn't want it any other way.

[And it's understandable that he doesn't want to hurt anyone with the knowledge, but he's the one that went through something like that. He's the one that she's focusing on. That it hurts is just consequential of what he means to her, and the enormity of what he's been through.

It's one more inkling of just what life was like for him, how much he's had to go through, and how that's affected him. She doesn't want to ignore it, especially if it's not something that's still coming to the surface, even in small ways. It's happening for a reason, isn't it? Something that's unresolved.

She would want to help him with it as he has already helped her with so many things.

The way he would help her if the roles were reversed.]


That's a terrible thing to do, regardless of whether it's Damon or not. [She quiets though, because there are a lot of reasons why someone turns, but wanting to be with someone forever seems to be a recurring thing.] I guess you can't really be with someone like that forever unless it's... becoming like them.

[It's also part of why Elena's more overprotective, even then she'd already been. Because of what's happened to Jeremy and how that never leaves her, not holding him dead in the floor and not him asking her why people have to keep doing on him. It took her a long time to get past what happened that night with Damon.

Sarah bites on her lip, only looking back up at him when she feels his hand on her face, trying to shove that lingering sadness back down her throat.]


I don't... blame you. [She looks down at his hands, finding them with her own, squeezing them once in reassurance.] Crossbows are cooler. Swords, too.

[She smiles a bit, clearly saying this to add some levity to the conversation, even if she means it.

Sarah's looking up at the ceiling, but she feels his eyes on her so she also shifts to the side to face him.]
Yeah, it wasn't the smoothest conversation we've ever had, but it was... definitive? [When someone tells you if you step out of the door you can't come back, it's pretty final. At least, she knows when Philip Monroe said it.]
