[ Cú doesn't let go of her as Yona climbs, and now that she's up here, he puts an arm around her, holding her securely. The warmth of fire witch radiating in already warm weather, sometimes it's a downside... ]

Indeed. It used to be the celebratory beginning of harvest season back when I come from. [ And the sacred day of Lugh ] Here it focuses more on celebrating bonds... and Bonds.

[ He's going somewhere with this ]

[ There was a plan to approach it, from step A to B, suave and all— then she turns tables on him and Caster almost stutters ]

I— we, yeah— [ There he chuffs out a laugh. ] Renewing the vows, is part of the celebration, and it's been exactly a year.

[ They did Bond on Lunasa, and that's a part that he can use to get back on track. ]

They say Bonds forged on Lùnasa are lucky and strong [ It's half-half because he also Bonded with Lex then... and she's gone now ]

[ That is not wrong. It did grow into something unexpected, stronger, and secure. Two opposites, yet they found balance in the middle. He sounds wistful when he gives in into her teasing. ]

Hard ground makes for stronger roots— [ The difficulties are not something to avoid. They're what gives one's shape. Living, and growing, a chance for something neither of them would ever expect. ] I cherish the year we had, and we shall celebrate with greatness

[ Just don't tell Archer ]

But aside for renewing the vows, Lùnasa is a time to forge new Bonds. That brings us to you.

Tailors and jewelry makers go wild during Lùnasa. [ Hell, even with Archer working mostly as a blacksmith, not full-time jeweler, he gets a surprising amount of commissions for trinkets, necklaces, and bracelets ]

I was thinking you'd look breathtaking in Bonding clothing.
futhark: (suited up)

[personal profile] futhark 2020-08-30 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd like that.

[ Ahh, she's getting it. She's getting where he's going. Through to be told, for the longest time he thought his job is to make sure Yona and Archer eventually Bond. She got through this man's shell and that's already an achievement, and with their Bond in place, he thought he understood the dragon's feelings.

But maybe he's selfish, or maybe it's part of the cherishing what is here and what is now. Eventually, he realized the idea to just steer these two and stay on the sidelines isn't the one that he yearns for. ]


On a proper ceremony. With all the celebration and fanfare Lúnasa brings to it. For that is something worth celebrating— [ There's a melodic aspect to his tone, along with a wistful candor ] Yona, would you Bond with me? Under the Full Moons and summer's sun.

...! [ As much as he enjoys the game, the hints, and riddles— it's like with songs and dance, you have the know the right moment to improvise quickly with a changing tide.

The suddenness of the embrace is what he does not expect, the trunk of the tree slipping dangerously— but his hand finds firm support, while the others hold Yona closely. ]


So be it! [ His joy and exhilaration openly exclaimed ] There has never been a better time than now.

Oh, that was the plan! [ Sure, he admits to it. As he slowly runs hand through her hair, as if testing if that's allowed ] But you gave me a good opening, and it would be a shame to waste it—

[ Improvisation, hell yes! ]
futhark: (knowing smile)

[personal profile] futhark 2020-09-03 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ So his touch grows bold, as he rolls a strand of red hair around his finger. ]

And I took away your chance to convince me. A pair of rascals we are.
futhark: (soft smile)

[ All normal and valid fears. Not to mention being unbonded as a Witch tends to... exaggerate this kind of doubts. ]

I understand, but just so that you know— I'd never turn you down, Yona.

[ A gently raised hand.... for a flick. Congrats on a short stun it induced. He makes a small grimace ]

I'm not doing it because I have to, but because I want to.

[ Though she isn't wrong that there are things he treated very seriously, oaths, loyalty, that kind of thing. It often made him do things he didn't want to do— ]
futhark: (hood; shit-eating grin)

[personal profile] futhark 2020-09-20 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Now all it's left is to mark time and day—

[ He offers her a tighter squeeze, here on the tree, hidden from view. In a world of their own, with the best outcome of so many possibilities ]

But I'm not letting you go just yet.
futhark: (sideglance and sidesmirk)

[personal profile] futhark 2020-09-27 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm being selfish and just keeping you with me. A kidnapped princess.

[ Maybe it's disappointing that he doesn't have a much bigger, grander plan for their outing— but a sudden idea strikes him and he bites onto his thumb to draw few quick runes into the branch. Pouring magic into the tree is slightly different than to an object— it's more similar to the magic that enchants flesh he practices at his work.

Afterall trees are living things.

But it works, and for a few seconds the tree's growth accelerates, it sprouts more leaves, branches going downwards, and as if the seasons turned into a spring a myriad of small, white flowers blooms across it ]
