So. I made it back.

This place really still exists, huh?

*Faye has appeared on a familiar island, but there's no real sense of how much time has passed. She caught glimpses of her home world, but she could have been gone from this world for months. Time seems to work so differently*

Thash, tell me you're still here. I'm coming to find you.

*Despite doing her best to sound cool and collected, her voice quavers slightly with that last statement*

[When Thash heard her voice on the journal, there was a moment of disbelief....was he really hearing her, or was this some cruel trick of his mind, which had been driven near to the breaking point with worry. He decided after a few moments it was really her. She was really back]

Faye...! [he almost barked, trying to keep his voice under control amid the flood of emotions this was causing]

Where are you?? Are you okay?

*Hearing his voice was enough to make her sick, so strong was the relief of knowing he was still here. She cleared her throat awkwardly, trying to keep cool*

I'm heading for the Nav. You're on the ship, right?

Yeah. Well actually I'm on the edge of an island right now but I can be back to the ship in just a minute or two!

[he was grateful she'd come back now instead of one of he other days when he's been out away from the ship searching other islands and seas for her. Just the thought that he was about to see her again caused his heart to race and he started sprinting back towards the ship]

*Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, Faye appeared through the Nav on the ship, desperately looking this way and that for Thash, wanting to see that he was there, that he was okay*

[she wouldn't really have much time to look before she was practically tackled by him. He didn't actually knock her over, but her certainly grabbed her and hugged her so quickly and tightly that she'd be swept off her feet. Thash had thought he'd been holding it together alright...telling himself firmly ever since she left that she wasn't really gone and he'd find her, or she'd be back. But now he realized just how much he'd been starting to believe she was gone and he'd never see her again. The relief that filled him was almost painful and he broke down, pressing her face against her neck and releasing a few tense sobs]

*Faye could only give a gasp of surprise as he swept her off her feet that way. It took a moment of shock before she wrapped her arms around him tightly, caressing his head and the back of his neck. She's more surprised at how upset he sounds, and she kisses his head, still strokung him tenderly*
Ssh...Thash, it's okay. I'm here...

[it took a few moments for him to get ahold of himself and calm down enough to speak. He didn't let go of her though, holding her tightly as if he'd never release her again]

I was...starting to wonder...if I'd ever see you again...

*This time Faye found it difficult to speak - it was horrible to see him so worried and upset. She had no idea what she'd put him through, but hated the idea of it. Faye made no move to let go either, kissing his head softly a few more times*

I'm sorry... I didn't mean to - I didn't want to leave...

I know...I know you wouldn't do this on purpose. There's nothing to be sorry for...

[he took a few deep breaths, calming himself further]

I'm just so...so glad you're back. I love you.

I had to come back. There was no way they could drag me back there and I'd just accept it. No fucking way.

*She cuddled herself against him now, trying not to sound too angry or better about being sent away. She just wanted to focus on being with Thash again*

I love you too.

*Faye held him for a moment, absentmindedly touch his head, his neck, his shoulder*

How long was I gone?

So you actually left this world then? But you came back...[he wondered for a time if she'd been kidnapped again, or worse, killed...but it see end she'd actually been gone. That was perhaps the most terrifying. Yet she'd come back, and quickly...,he wondered if the strength if her will had been responsible for that]

Just over two weeks...

[he nuzzled against her a bit, so happy to feel her light touches]

I did. But as soon as I realised where I was... I was just screaming to get back here.

*She tensed at the thought of being gone for two weeks, not quite believing it herself*

Two weeks? But I was only home for...seconds. i'm so sorry... But I'm here now...

Hm. Maybe what we want does have some influence in us being in this world or not then...

[he sighed a bit, his body finally relaxing as he ran a hand down her back lovingly then pulled his face off her neck in order to kiss her]

I don't know. I don't know for sure but...I'm here.

*And she was tired of being separated from him - first he dies, and then she disappears. That thought, and his hand on her back, makes Faye bite her lio, forcing herself to keep it together. She leaned into the kiss, loving and warm, arms wrapping around him*

[he kissed her with eager affection, focused on letting her feel how much he cared for her and how happy he was she had returned. He'd kiss her for a long time that way]

*Faye sighed through the kiss with the relief of knowing that they were together again, that Thash seemed okay, despite not having her around. She moaned softly too, really feeling from him how much she meant to him. Finally, she slowed the kiss to a stop, breathing deeply*

Dammit, I love you like crazy...

[he smiled softly, giving a small nod]

Likewise, Faye. You mean more to me than anything.

*Faye just stood there, looking at him, admiring him with adoring eyes. She squeezed herself close to him again*

Can we go somewhere? It can be anywhere. I just want it to be me and you. And maybe a glass of wine.

Yeah, there's a lot of empty beaches nearby...I'll grab a blanket and some wine.

[he gave her another small kiss and let her go as if to leave but realized that he really didn't want her out of his sight at all right now]

*Faye smiled at him as he let her go, and she reached at once to take his hand*

That sounds perfect. I'll come with you, just to prove that I won't go disappearing anywhere..

Thanks [he smiled warmly and squeezed her hand, then headed to the galley. He dug out a bottle of wine he knew she'd like, along with a few light snacks. Then he'd go grab a blanket from his room to carry it all in]

Shall we?

*Faye followed him closely, and at every few steps she'd lean forward to kiss his nose, his cheek, his neck, or his shoulder. As they made their way off the ship and along the beach, Faye put her arm around his waist so they were walking closely side by side*

So, two weeks, hmm? What did I miss? That wasn't long enough for you to go deciding to find a new girlfriend, was it?

[he put his arm around her while they walked, chuckling at what she said]

Well, the great ghost race started, but obviously we're not participating. Some big monster attacked the island it started at....I fought it for a while and got a small shard but eventually it knocked me away. Not much has happened since then...

Wait - you fought a monster?

*Faye stopped walking abruptly and moved to stand in front of him, doing a close assessment for any sign of injury, her brow creased in worry*

Are you okay? Were you hurt?

Hm, I was a little bruised and cut up right after, but they were all minor injuries that healed quickly. Honestly the worst part was using that ice dagger...it sucked the energy right outta me.
