Supposedly, yeah. Maybe it'd be easier for you guys since you're not demiflora, but I don't know what it's really like. I've only been outside a handful of times.
But... it felt like when we talked, the tower was the primary option. Even though I do remember the secret you shared.
[ that he was jealous of iris for leaving, back the first time that he used the whistle ]
So... I'm excited for a future where you get to choose something else. If Adolphe and I do find a farm somewhere, and we can be in touch and people can find each other again... you're always welcome where I am.
...It's still the Tower, for now. I can't leave for real until I figure out how to help Iris, or at least where to find him. After that... I'm not sure.
[ it's scary. the fear of that moment has never gone away, and all the trouble here in heaven have only made it worse. now that he knows what loss is like, he's even more afraid of experiencing it again, in a place where he won't have the chance to reunite later.
but it's given him the chance to meet people he never knew how much he'd come to care about, either. someone told him here that knowing those people and having those connections was always worth it, even with the inevitable loss hanging over their heads. maybe laurence can finally believe that, just a little. ]
...Thanks, Yves. I... I'll think about it, if we really can do that. It'd be a lot easier, that way.
Mm.... I understand. There's some people you just can't leave alone, right?
[ after how much people lectured yves that he couldn't just try to immediately follow adolphe after he died, and how he still thought about it anyway.... he gets it ]
It'd be nice, but... I'm afraid until then, I'll agree with everyone else. I'd like to make the most of our time together.

[ his own world is kind of garbage, or so it sounds? ]
But most worlds have someplace like that, I think. It won't be that hard for you to find it.

But just looking at options.

Since things are so hard outside the tower?

[ if laurence's mission is still the same ]
no subject
But if it weren't for that, I might think about going somewhere else, too. Somewhere safer.
no subject
... that's good. I really am glad to hear that.

You're part of my home, Laurence.

[ yves that is a little insane but you're allowed. i guess. ]
Everything is all messed up now, though.
no subject
Yeah, but I didn't really come back all excited for the sights besides the beach. I was excited to see all of you.
no subject
[ awful! ]
...Yeah. Sounds like you. Are you just planning to hug everyone, now that you're here?
no subject
no subject
And when you get us all? What's next?
no subject
[ he's probably joking ]
no subject
Yeah, right. Good luck with that one. There's no way everyone would let you.

the emotionshare gives away exactly one second of mischief as a hint before yves just leans in and presses a kiss to laurence's cheek mwah !!!! ]
no subject
Yves!!
no subject
Yes?
no subject
[ he knows why and he doesn't mind but man,
how did he get so used to this when he can barely tolerate it the thought of it from anyone else ]
no subject
Mostly just for fun at this point.
no subject
I'm glad somebody is having fun.
