[P] stairway to the sea

[Samaira]

Samaira doesn't argue his statement, but she cannot help but also thing that greed is for the weak who feel too powerful. And that that is why they believe they have the right to take, and take, and take.

When he looks at her again, when their eyes meet, she does not miss the shift in his expression. Like ice beneath the warm sun, there is a softening to his expression and the pegasus thinks how much it suits him. A contrast to the winter chill of his skin.

And when he smiles, even for the predatory nature of the lips it curls, Samaira wonders how much ice she has managed to shave off. How much she has managed to chisel away, if any at all. He speaks and turns away from her and surges into the sea, powerful and swift.

'Look out for beasts.'

"I will," Samaira says softly to his disappearing shape, melding into the waves and the seafoam. She stays there for awhile longer—on that lonely shore—looking at the horizon and wondering if the shadows just under the surface are him or something else.

With a soft smile tugging at the corners of her lips, she too eventually turns away. But inside, she knows this will not be her last visit to the sea.

@Amaroq just a closer <3
