"ᴍᴀʏʙᴇ ᴛʜɪꜱ ᴛɪᴍᴇ.."

[ a n g s t / f l u f f ]

The two intertwined souls could never be parted.
Yes, you an Neuvilette were soulmates for thousands of lives, yet he could never express his gratitude no matter how hard he tried. When he felt it was so close to doing it, it would be too late.

The distant man sat in a familiar surrounding as he has been for centuries, holding the cold hand of his beloved once more as the rain outside poured heavily. 

"..What a shame..." The silver haired man mumbled, knowing he'd have to wait another century to reunite with you again.
Each parting was never easy, he always had that guilt and shame of not giving you what you deserved while you still had a pulse, only to wait until you take that feeing away once more with your presence in another life.

Neuvilette stands up before taking his leave, allowing you to your eternal rest in your favorite flowers once more as the sound of his feet hitting against the soggy wet ground is heard. 

"Rest well, Mon étoile.. May you illuminate the sky once more.. until we meet again.." The man whispers to himself, walking to a familiar area that he's visited so many times.

Stopping at a cliff with a clear view of the moon and stars, your favorite place. 
He stands, allowing his mind to clear as the rain slowly fades away, only leaving puddles behind. This is how its always been, the Hydro dragon of Fontaine grieving the loss of the same person for years.
 He should have been used to this by now, its happened so many times but yet his heart still aches for the once warm touch that he use to receive after every stressful day. The smiles and laughs that use to echo in his ears like a lovely melody now haunt his mind, reminding him of every pained moment to where you aren't with him.

The Iudex stares at the sky from the dead of night to the break of dawn before returning to his duties as the Chief Of Justice.

The weeks go by, soon turning into months, then years. You will often hear the citizens of Fontaine discuss how the rain patterns have been becoming more frequent at night.

The day comes to an end for the people, but not for Neuvilette, who still remains in his office with a stack of files on his desk. He sighs as he finishes up filling out reports of a completed case, slouching back in his chair as his back aches. 

A Melusine approaches his desk with a hot cup of tea
"Monsieur Neuvilette? Do you need some assistance?" She asks, placing the beverage within his reach on the wooden surface. 
Neuvilette musters up a small, faint smile.
"No, I am quite fine. Thank you for your concern" 

The Melusine notices the tiredness behind his gaze
"Forgive me, Monsieur Neuvilette.. But it appears to me you have much on your mind.. perhaps a walk could do some good?"
She offers. 

The Iudex stares off for a second before softly sighing
"..Thank you for the suggestion.. Ill keep it in mind."

The Melusine nods before walking out of his office. Neuvilette sits in his chair, taking a sip of tea. He glances at the paperwork before looking out the window
"yes... Perhaps a walk would be best." He mutters to himself before standing up and walking out of his office.

The Chief Of Justice strolls down the empty streets of Fontaine before exiting the city entirely, following a path into the great wonders of nature. The night is cool and calm, only the sounds of the night owl and soft breeze is heard. His shoes leave an imprint on the dirt below him, his hair flowing as if it was mother nature herself playing with his silver and blue strands. 

As Neuvilette continues to walk, he notices a silhouette in the distance. Noticing how it is quite late and possibly dangerous, he approaches the mysterious figure. 

As he gets closer, he senses the familiarity in the being
'..it cant be..' He thinks, but it is. 

As he studies the person, a question creeps into his mind:

"Shall I destroy my already wounded heart once more, or should I let it be?".

He's aware of how this plays out, he's aware of the guilt of not doing enough when he could have.. not being there enough when he should have... 

"maybe this time... things will be different."

The figure turns to face the Iudex 
"May I help you, sir?.." 

Neuvilette smiles, taking a seat on the area next to the person. 
"Not precisely.. I just noticed you are holding my favorite kind of flowers." The Iudex explains.
The figure smiles, looking down at the small bouquet
"yes.. they are quite lovely.. These are also my favorite kind of flowers." The person replies
Neuvilette smiles, 
'Im aware' he says in his mind. 'They have always caught your eye in every life you experience'.
"...If I may ask, what may your name be? I would like to be acquainted with you, and maybe more if you'd do me the honors?" The person asks with a soft smile.
Neuvilette chuckles

"I am know as the Chief Of Justice.. But you can call me by my surname, Neuvilette."
