[He hustles inside and closes the door behind him, stamping off the snow as best he can. He reaches into his bag and pulls out a can, holding it out to Luz.]
These mushrooms were fresh when we canned them, so they should keep a good while.
[He inclines his head slightly. Her girlfriend... doesn't like mushrooms? Huh.]
Sorry, if I'd known I would have brought something else.
[He hangs up his cloak and shakes his head, leaving his boots by the door as well. He quietly pads over and sits near the fire, tail curling around his side.]
No, it's fine. I said SHE doesn't like them, but she doesn't live here, after all! We all do! And I am definitely using them for stews!
[Luz makes sure to give the fire a good poke before going back into the kitchen. A few minutes later she comes out with the crostinis and two large cups of hot tea].
[Luz may be confusing Lexi with her friend Rose, though she imagined that Lexi wasn't too fond of Mushrooms either, for some reason. She did plunky down next to Nara'a].
Sure, of course! I've really taken a shine to it for most cold weather!
It was gradual for me too. Lysithea and Eda were the ones that really made me use it for breaking the ice!
Well yeah, but I also use incense and meditation and stuff too.
Also helps that I have a girlfriend. It anchors me a little to have someone who's always in my corner. But I'm lucky. I've always had people who were trying to help me when things got bad.

Date: 2022-12-15 07:47 pm (UTC)Oh, okay. And yeah, it is.

Oh, right, the mushrooms! Got to make sure my girlfriend doesn't seem them though.
Anyway! Go warm yourself by the fire! It's pretty cold out there!

Thank you, Luz. I appreciate it.

That good for you, or do you want something else?
no subject
Date: 2022-12-18 03:24 am (UTC)No, those look great. And thank you for the tea.
[He takes it gratefully and sips it.]
I never really liked tea before I went to Kugane... since that's practically all they drink.
[Not really, but it's extremely common.]
But I like it a lot now.

I'm just... glad that you're okay, Luz.

All right in some ways, sure. It's still Trench, so it can put its own stamp on you, one way or another.

Date: 2022-12-21 01:17 am (UTC)I just... I acted badly before. Even if I was corrupted, that's not an excuse.
no subject
Date: 2022-12-21 06:31 am (UTC)It might have been for the best. If I had stuck around, you might have really hurt me.

I'm trying to never get that bad again...

no subject
Date: 2022-12-27 09:11 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2022-12-28 07:14 am (UTC)Does that...help? I did the same thing, after I got corrupted. It's way harder than most people think.

Thinking of them helps too.

There's people who care about me as well. Though having a partner like that... I'd be worried about worrying them too much.
no subject
Date: 2022-12-29 08:05 pm (UTC)[Luz hoped it was enough. She liked Nara'a, and she didn't want anything bad happening to him.
Though even Luz didn't know if these things were enough. She hardly knew it about her own struggles with corruption].
Oh, I do! All the time! It's kinda why I try not to jump so easily into things as I usually do. I'm trying to stay alive.

Date: 2023-01-02 03:19 am (UTC)... Ah... well. That's kind of been my whole life - at least since I left home. I've been getting into a lot of trouble...
