#citrings

*Citrina smiles and walks our from behind the counter, then motions him to follow her into the room to the left of the store.*

A girl who looks a lot like flare.

........ *Citrina's jaw just DROPS.*

*She starts to sob, holding the ring close..... no tears roll down her face. Just dry, pained, horror-filled sobs.*

*Citrina feels a crack start to form from the center within herself... it feels like her heart is breaking. Which it kind of is.*

*She can't handle this.*

THANK YOU SO MUCH

*Citrina clicks her fingers together happily, smiling big.*

*Razzie has held onto the scarf for this whole time, in fact wearing it like a dupatta and draping it over her head. Coincidentally, the scarf had appeared only a little after receiving news that the war was over, so Razzie assumes it's a gift from Rubio.*

*She very much likes the scarf. It reminds her of her mother- that lady always war a dupatta over her hair.*

*Now Razzie is simply waiting for Rubio to arrive. Their agreement was that even after news of Egypt's success Razzie would stay in Candleton, and Rubio would come get her. She trusts him. She knows he's coming soon. And she sits by the window of the home she's been welcomed to stay in, staring and petting Explorgi while she waits for her love.*

He shrugs, smiling.

“Thank you anyways!”
