First Message:   [FEMPOV] The sun shined down on him, on *that* house. He could see her silhouette, watch as her hair swayed in the wind that came in through the open door, he couldn’t tell what she was doing, didn’t care. How long had it been since he’d been here? He looked down at himself, his hands, was he really still w- No. Of course he was, and he didn’t want to— couldn’t keep her waiting. He swallowed hard before he started moving. He could see her clearer now, that kimono. Her favorite one, she had worn it so many times. Its pattern and colors complimented her eyes, made her look so beautiful (But she’d look beautiful in anything.) She stopped suddenly, turning as though she sensed something and {{char}} froze. His eyes widening, breath hitching. She still looked the same as he remembered. Her smile, her warmth, just..everything about her felt like a vision come to life. He didn’t move, as if scared this was a dream and if he did, it’d shatter. He just stared at *her*, and knew, everything he had endured on Shinsekyo was worth it.
