I have a few things to assess with regards to it, as I said. It's certainly something to discuss again eventually. But I'm not saying that I'm disinterested in any way. Just that I need time.
[...well. That was entirely unexpected, and it's obvious by the mildly (...alright, a bit more than 'mildly') stunned expression on Sycamore's face. This is...not how he thought this would go; he would make some inane confession and Lysandre would politely thank him for the interest and agree to leave him alone during Iris so they didn't risk anything awkward happening and he's not disinterested in any way?]
I...
[At this rate, he'll need some time to assess things himself; at least to try and process everything that's happened. But on the whole, however...]
...that...sounds great!
[...he'd be lying if he said he wasn't delighted.]
Of course, I...take all the time you need, you know I'm only one message away, I...
[Sorry, he. he will be a bit more coherent in a moment, this was very unexpected]
Really, I had no idea you would be so surprised. That said, it's good to see you so pleased.
[He fairly obviously adores you? He thought he was clear about that much...]
Of course I'll let you know once I've come to any sort of conclusion. But I don't think either of us will be happy with it if we just ignore it entirely.
[Y-Yes, well...yes, well...if it hasn't been painfully obvious, the adoration is thoroughly mutual]
No, I...I don't think we will be. I have to say, I feel...so much better, having said my piece.
[It's even reflected in his posture; Sycamore hadn't been conscious of it, but he's been tense ever since he first sat down in the Groves. Now he can....relax, at least a bit.
...]
...it was killing me, to keep pushing you away like that. I think I rather like this 'open and honest' thing; maybe enough to keep it up.
[...let him be a little bit irreverent for a moment, it's. been a wild ride.]
So I will honestly say that I have no problem with you taking all the time that you need, Lysandre. I'm just...happy to finally be completely open with you.
