Entry tags:
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy
Who: Felix and Ashura
What: Breaking up is hard to do
When: The evening the Fairfield/Winchester expedition team returns
Where: Room 626
Rating: Likely pg-13 for yelling
Sitting in the dimly lit dining room, Felix had to admit that he was a coward. He was afraid to lose anything to the point that he often stopped himself from getting it in the first place. Still, despite the many dalliances he'd had in the past, he'd never actually left anyone whom he genuinely cared for. Once he had something, he tended to cling rather tightly to it. So this was a first. A terrifying first. But he'd made his decision, for all the pain he knew it would cause.
Everything was in order. His clothes and sundry other belongings already packed and moved to his new room across the hall from Chimera headquarters. There were only two items remaining. The first, the ring Ashura had given him, was clasped so tightly in his hand the design was starting to bite into his skin. The other, a faintly glowing stone on a long chain, was still hidden under his shirt. This was the last time he would wear it, but he was loathe to give it up as easily. Sibyl was still in residence as well, but uncommonly quiet and wary, as if sensing the impending storm that was about to befall their suite, her ears pressed back and eyes watching. Felix wasn't sure she would follow - but he would make to move to force her from Agni's side.
He waits patiently, knowing from the journals that the expedition is due back soon. That Ashura will be coming home with the hopes of a happy reunion that he'll be forced to quash very quickly. That was the one benefit of his delay. No painful period of coming and going while he removed himself from the other man's life. Just a goodbye. Quicker, but not likely to be simple.
