[ Oh, well, that's perfectly alright with him. He doesn't mind her lack of speech. He never has. Her body language says more than enough; despite the way she tries to hide it, he can feel the tremble in her palms. He can tell that something amiss.
He starts to wonder on his own if maybe they had been separated longer than he realized. He remembers Rose talking about it. Four years at home, away from Vanyel and Farraige both... And even before then, when it was her partner who had actually been the one to be separated from her before arriving in Xistentia.
Had he done that to Era, however unwittingly? If that's the case, he'll just have to make up for all the lost time that he can. He kisses her again, this time a little sweeter. He's sorry. For whatever it is, he is sorry. He had never meant to hurt her. He never had, never would. ]
