How may it feel to create rather than sow destruction, find pride, earned and accompanied by the tell-tale signs of work well done, once all was completed. There was a time when the notion seemed tangible, needed only the courage to reach forth and act upon the gently tended desire, a flickering flame allowed to die. He knew now no accident was the dismissal, snuffed that want beneath cold steel, but a child was he than, innocent and stupid for it.
Long past those days, dormant the fine fragments retained, snippets of a life that seemed a silken mirage befitting another. His were they no matter his reluctance to accept, at odds the once child, alight with a brilliance and joy that craved knowledge as though never enough could he have, and the man he now was. Better this way, separation allowed the severing to be conducted all the easier, or, at the least, such the frame he put about it.
Slight the frown that curled his lips, stark the difference present between the thin column of dissipating smoke and the dark backdrop of the sky. Too fine it to hint at a flame out of control, sparse that he had seen on the various instances he had done as he was now, clearing his head with only his thoughts for company, frost bitten much of it. Controlled this, made by another. Slow the ignition of his curiosity, a simmering heat that contested with his simple wish to continue reminiscing though well did he know to be counter-productive.
Understood one day the disregard of better judgement to obtain satisfaction may well invite his downfall, though lessened such when beckoned closer a conclusion he knew to be inevitable.
Rather short the distance between his prior location that and that which had been deemed suitable, still his muscles ached in protest he had grown accustomed to, too long mistreated a body that wished for a reprieve he would not allow it. Brief the confusion that arose, painted his ivory features before it dissolved, afixed once more a lax disinterest, between the pair his vision turning. Strangers both, though a fault largely his own as neither were sought to change the status to anything more akin to acquaintanceship, the cause by no means tied to a lack of interest.
No words bypassed his tightly pressed lips, adorned in a crooked curl of a smile, closer stepping until he was enveloped in the warm light. Quiet the sigh that slipped by without his notice, pleasant the heat after the chill of the night, his silence allowed to last a moment longer. "This is no ordinary firepit." Unnecessary the observation yet allowed it to hang in the air, his gaze finally lifting and regarded Aesior.
