"You're not my cage, Neuvillette. You're not my burden or my reminder of imprisonment." She reached out, her hand finding his, and he realized she was shaking. "You're the person who saw through my performance when it mattered most. Who understood what I sacrificed and never diminished it. Who lets me be messy and uncertain and still learning who I am."
She laughed, a slightly shaky sound. "You're the person I'm choosing, freely, to spend my time with. My newly mortal, incredibly limited, precious time."
Outside, the rain began to soften. Not stopping, but gentling into something almost tender.
