Tare [tair]
Romance, Courtship, Zephyr

❧ Played by Niyx

Appearance: Medium height and light of build, Tare is a very graceful being – though whether one sees hir as a god or a goddess is entirely to their own decisions. Appearing in the late teens to early twenties, xe is highly androgynous with hir basic form a slender youth with short, dark brown hair and dark eyes. Xe wears a light colored, loose sweater with a wide neck which leaves one of hir shoulders bare, and comfortable capri style pants in an light tan. Hir shoes are comfortable sandals with a slight heel, and xe wears woven hemp for bracelets and a necklace with a small, gold charm.

Tare has a tendency to only appear as a breath of wind or movement of air when xe doesn't feel like showing hir face or when xe dislikes someone. Xe will never not appear at all when called though.

Characteristics: Elusive, gentle, capricious, emotional, voyeuristic, polyamorous, easily miffed, passive aggressive, ingenuous.

Likes: Watching people, positive emotional connections and responses, happy endings, fresh scents, freedom of movement.

Dislikes: Prostitution, marriages of convenience, emotionless or cold people, unclean things, stagnant air, entrapments.

Shrine: A wisteria vine grows in the corner of the room with a delicate wind chime suspended within it. A simple metal hoop with four twisted glass bars hanging in the center of it.

Ritual: Blow softly across the chimes to call hir. Xe may or may not appear physically, but if xe is present and listening, the chimes will continue to ring softly as though caught in a gentle breeze.

You should rest then.

[petting his hair]

Can't sleep. Mind won't shut down. Today's just been...

[A sigh]

Dathusropi took my brother away.

[xe goes still a moment before hugging him tightly]

He's not gone forever. I'll get to see him again. I know that. And one day we'll get to all be together again, but--

[Just gonna curl up against Tare]

Yanno.

I know.

[hugs :( and after a moment steps back to lead him to the couch]

[Just gonna-- sad flop on top of hir. Hope you don't mind that he is a bit useless for anything right now]

Any sign of Kalidas?

[xe will pull blankets around them and they can cuddle]

No... not yet.

[Cuddling. Cuddling is like the exact kind of medicine Lavi needs right now]

[Reaches up to run a hand through hir hair]

I've been thinking a lot... about what we talked about before.

[cuddling is the best... the hair petting makes it perfect]

Oh?

I'm tired of being fate or destiny or whatever you wanna call it coming in and taking away the people important to me. I'm tired of being lonely.

...

D'you feel the same?

[hugs him gently]

The lonely part at least, yes.

[A long pause as he considers something]

...

Tare, what do you think of the nature gods?

[sighs, looking away a little sadly]

I think they were wrong to do what they did, but... I understand why they wanted things to change. The further people moved from nature... even I felt the pain of it.

Do you think it's possible to have a balance between the two - civilization and nature, I mean.

Yes.

Mmmmm.

I think I'd like to try it your way, yeah.

[kisses his cheek]

Is that a yes, you'll have me?

Will you have me?

[Kisses hir. Is that a good enough answer?]

[oh... well... yes. UNEXPECTED BUT YES -- and xe will return that kiss easily]

[Blushing. SO MUCH BLUSHING. And running a hand through hir hair and yes this is nice let Lavi forget for a moment how much of an emotional wreck he is]

[times two to that sentiment, brings a hand up to touch his cheek lightly]

You're cute. When you do things like that.

[reddens]

Do what?
