[Maya's Heart]

[soulping]

[Everything goes white, almost blindingly, as you enter Eveningstar's heart.... it's so overwhelming that you forget, for a moment, what you're doing, why you're here, and details about yourself start to slip---]

[but then it all stops, abruptly, and your senses return to you]

[deadrising]

I threw potatoes at him in an attempt to avenge you.

[ yes '^' ]

There was a battle, but it's over now.

[bloodbiter]

[laughs despite herself]

Your avenging is appreciated.

[deadrising]

He got walloped with at least two potatoes from my evidence.

[acemedium]

A battle...?

[deadrising]

Oh...don't worry. We are all quite fine.

[ she says, while looking like she was attacked by a bear or something ]

[acemedium]

[sort of... pressing her face against the bars and frowning with concern, trying to get a better look]

I'm sorry....

[deadrising]

[ coming over to her '^' i am also adopting you btw, now officially adopted ]

Don't be. I was glad to help. Did you know you have a lot of food in here?

[acemedium]

[she's still in jail!! but she'll reach out for Nightshade's hand through the bars]

... I do? [She looks around] I don't see any....

[deadrising]

[ can i present evidence: piece of red cake.... ]

Well, it was in another room.

[ hesitates....but takes Eveningstar's hand and looks away a little awkwardly because hand holding '^' ]

How do we get you out of these bars?

[acemedium]

Oh...

[evidence doesn't work in this room!]

[but there's a key hanging next to the door]

[Once Eveningstar touches your hand, however, all your wounds and remaining pain disappears, leaving nothing but scratches and a couple of bruises in their place]

[grandstanding]

[using that key on the lock now]

[acemedium]

[once it's open, she'll basically just run up to you and throw her arms around you]

[As she does, the rest of your injuries and pain vanish, leaving nothing but a few scratches and bruises]

[grandstanding]

[IS THIS THE POWER OF LOVE? he awkwardly pats her back.]

[acemedium]

[it's the power of dere]

[though she is wavering a bit on her feet]

...Thank you. For coming.

[grandstanding]

We weren't going to leave you like that.

[acemedium]

[she breaks out into another embarrassed smile, blood trickling down from her neck and legs.]

I'm sorry. It's just that... for as long as I remember, it's only been me in here.

[tothedepths]

[ HOVERING ABOUT but whenever she pulls away from Blade, his hand finds her wrist, gently. ]

Star.

[acemedium]

[you get a hug, too!]

[and as soon as you make contact, you feel your remaining injuries disappear, leaving you with light scratches and no pain]

[tothedepths]

[ Miracle of miracles, he does nothing except hug her right back. ]

u wanna play this game with me

[acemedium]

[She slumps a bit against you, and you feel something warm and sticky, but she's pretty content with the hug as is]

...Thank you, Gilly.

[deadrising]

[ Ah good, you are out of the cell. ]

[ She takes a step back while you're Epona flooded, trying to keep out of the way. ]

I am glad you're alright.

[acemedium]

[too bad you're getting hugged too!]

I'm glad you're okay, too.

[deadrising]

[ Ah.....carefully returning it, like she's worried she'll break Star. ]

I.....see.

[ THAT MEANS, THANK YOU ]

[acemedium]

[considering the height difference this hug is awkward at best]

I'm sorry for all the trouble...

[deadrising]

It was really no trouble at all. Really.

[ What a big, stinking liar. ]
