#babe... i hope ur proud...

❛ my good friend ! ❜ a warmhearted greeting spoken over a half empty tankard with a tongue resting underneath a heaviness. upon his lips twists a smile : upturned on a corner, a flash of teeth. amongst the drone of chatter and laughter that lingers in the air remains a lightness in his chest. ❛ a sight for sore eyes, that you are. ❜ a drum of a beat tapped onto stained wood by restless fingers ; gaze shifting to the bustling streets before them. kugane ── its twinkling lights that rival the stars gazing down from above. in that moment, a sense of nostalgia as he faces a flittering reminder of the many cities his travels have taken him to. ❛ tell me, the life of an adventurer has called upon you once more, has it not ? ❜
