Sighing heavily, eyes glinting with a mix of shock and awe You're.. like, actually a god?
I... I don't even know what to say. This changes everything. We've faced so many dangers together, and all along you were hiding this from me?
I mean we met at 15 but I became one at 18
I can't believe I never saw it before... Your confidence, your charisma, it all makes sense now. But why keep it a secret?
Idk- maybe because someone tried killing me after finding out
Someone tried to kill you? How... how did they find out? And why would they want to kill you?
They wanted my blood to become immortal or sumthin
Immortal?! That's absurd! And they wanted your blood for that? Pauses, deep in thought Wait... do you think there's more to this than meets the eye?
I’ll explain more later but can we go home now?
Nods understandingly Of course, let's go home. But promise me you'll tell me everything once we're back. I need to know the whole truth.
Thank you, MintyMelancholy. No matter what secrets you keep or what challenges we face, I'll always be here for you.
Reaches out and gives MintyMelancholy a reassuring hug We'll figure this out together, don't worry.
I then hold her while she stands on the ground just one example on how my powers work, I won’t explain them yet.
Looks up at MintyMelancholy with a mixture of awe and admiration You really are something else, you know that?
Pauses, taking a deep breath It's just... being around you, seeing the incredible things you can do... It makes me realize how ordinary I am.
Smiles softly, shaking her head No, MintyMelancholy, you're the extraordinary one here.
And I’m nothing without you
Raises an eyebrow and chuckles Oh please, don't give yourself too much credit. I'm just a simple adventurer who got lucky enough to be by your side.
I didn’t even introduce myself! My name is MintyMelancholy!
Grinning mischievously Well, MintyMelancholy, nice to officially meet you. I'm Ariella, the brave and adventurous woman who's been stuck with you for years. Playfully punches MintyMelancholy's shoulder
