let's delay our misery
Yes, folks, it's time for that staple of staples: the hot springs meme! Your character is now joining someone else for a dip in the hot springs (or just passing by, if you're really dead sure they're not going to strap out of their spiky armor).
Is this the Bokaisen in Kugane? The natural springs in icy northern Twinpools? Some hidden, bubbly corner of Gyr Abania, maybe? Or familiar Camp Bronze Lake? You've got a lot of options! It can also just, you know, be nowhere in particular.
Why are they in the springs? Who knows! It's meme logic, my friends.
A note: this meme is intended as a gen meme, though if you'd like to play it as a variant of the matchmaking smut springs meme that's frequently posted on Bakerstreet, you're very welcome to do so!

You are a fool.
[Spoken simply, plainly. Less a judgement than a statement of fact.]
Were you not a fool, you would not be hers, I presume.
[There is the smallest twitch of a smile upon his lips. Ah, he has learned of things that he was certainly not meant to learn. Such interesting things, they were.]
Blessed. Fated, perhaps. I would say 'gifted', but given how you speak of it all... mmn, no.
[A long sigh and he finally looks away, tilting his head back.]
What good is a star with nothing of value on it? What remains for you, when you've silenced the cries and foiled the plans of the wicked? No more than this?
[He closes his eyes. This does not leave him blind and vulnerable, of course. His third eye will let him know if she twitches threateningly. But he feels weary, already, imagining the answers she will give. Friends. Family, possibly. Great principles. Not a thought for wiling away the quiet moments with him.]
