For some reason hearing the words had been a different experience than having them implied as they'd been doing. But more than just them alone came the promise before them. Was it... even possible for such a thing? To coexist was one thing... for love it seemed to be another.
And yet how many times had they encountered love between a spirit and a human? If it was such a different beast why was it also such a common one? Maybe... simply believing it wasn't possible because of the past examples wasn't the right way to think about it. And if they wanted to make a world for humans and spirits then perhaps it was just as much a world for coexists as it was for love. And for them.
Now she's definitely blushing--almost worse than he is--and her expression melts into a soft smile. Her look is gentle and filled with such adoration; a look very rarely seen displayed so openly on her face. His hands are warm around her own.]
