aw, thank you!! ♥ we're loving teddy too.

[sunlightgirl]

That would probably help you feel more confident, yeah..

[ Karolina's never had authority over anyone, really. Not even herself.

That said, it's really nice to see that Teddy has grown into some level of comfort with his. ]

Isn't it weird? How much we've all changed?

[hybrid_prince]

Weird? Yeah, I guess. I mean, I'm an emperor, my boyfriend is... more than that. I've traveled the multiverse and so many other weird things.

Mostly I'm just glad I survived.

[sunlightgirl]

I think we all feel that way, nowadays. Things seemed so big before, you know? Nowadays I'm just kind of trying to enjoy the little things. Not dwell too much on the bad.

[hybrid_prince]

The bad will change and fade it’s time. It’s good to think about what will stay.

[sunlightgirl]

That's a nice way of looking at it.

[ Especially now that Karolina can look around at all the really, really good stuff in her life. ]

Even after everything, I guess I feel pretty lucky.

[hybrid_prince]

Me too. Love and life, what more can we need?

[sunlightgirl]

Nothing at all.

[ ...Well, almost nothing. But she's not gonna bring the mood down. ]

Oh, and awesome friends too!

[hybrid_prince]

Well, we're friends and we're both awesome, so I think we've got that covered.

Still, I love my friends, so that seems like it was covered in the above. ^-^

[sunlightgirl]

Oh.
Yeah, um. Of course. I love my friends too...!

[ She just may have been way too entirely caught up in Nico thoughts.
Then again, that's not exactly an uncommon thing lately. ]

[hybrid_prince]

You're thinking of something else, aren't you?

[sunlightgirl]

Am I that obvious?

[hybrid_prince]

People in love give off a vibe

[sunlightgirl]

Heh, I guess that's doubly so when it's this new, huh.

[hybrid_prince]

Yeah. The puppy dog phase.

[sunlightgirl]

It feels like it's never gonna end this time, y'know? It's really different to with Xavin or Julie.

[ Maybe that's not a surprise, though. She's wanted this for years, after all. ]

[hybrid_prince]

Well, I can't really comment one way or another. I've only had one love.

[sunlightgirl]

It's kind of weird how part of me wants to say "me too"...
Even though I know I loved Xavin, and Julie too.

[ It's just that they were different somehow, in a way Karolina doesn't think she can ever explain. ]

[hybrid_prince]

Love comes and goes. You don't lose it just because the person you cared about isn't around anymore.

[sunlightgirl]

And it's different every time.
Sometimes I wonder what would happen if Xavin came back now.
Everything's changed, but it's like you said - love doesn't just go away.

[hybrid_prince]

Well, you could be certain that if nothing else, Xavin would have somewhere to go.

[sunlightgirl]

That's true!

[ She worries about it sometimes. Xavin gave up so much for her, after all. If they came back... ]

Thanks, Teddy. ♥

[hybrid_prince]

You're always welcome, Karolina.
