Streaks of ruby light danced in her blonde hair, cast by the bubbling lava behind them as she lost herself to contemplation. Her green eyes clouded over with distance, lips tightly fused shut to hold back from speaking until she was satisfied with her thoughts.[break][break]

"I don't necessarily resent you," she said with an exhale. "But I wouldn't say I trust you, no."[break][break]

Either of you.

"You're asking the wrong question."[break][break]

A fiery tincture illuminated her face as she turned away from the horizon towards him, towards the lava pools, towards the question he'd posed to her now.[break][break]

"It's not about if I'm capable of trusting people. It's about if I want to in the first place."

his gaze trails after hers to the lava pools, warm yellow and orange and red painting across his features. they are colors that fit him, unsurprisingly, for one reason or another.[break][break]

From her place on the picnic blanket, she leaned back on her hands, head tilting skywards to expose the entirety of her face to the volcanic light. The harsh amber glow of their environs suited him, but seemed to transform her instead, neither suiting her nor proving ill-suited to her.[break][break]

Just different.[break][break]

"Don't you think it's a bit ironic?" she said, and a soft laugh took hold of her, echoing around them. "That you are the one whose engagement has shattered, and you ask me why I'm afraid to trust people?"[break][break]

As if she didn't expect an answer, she reached for the cup of wine again, and with it, a new topic of conversation.[break][break]

"Was this meant to be a liquid meal, then? It's difficult to imagine you preparing food."

he blinks.[break][break]

"do you think it was me who ended it?"[break][break]

where she may attempt to shift the topic of the conversation away, he lingers, stubborn as ever. he does, however, entertain her request for food.[break][break]

the lid of the basket is tipped up before he reaches in for two tupperware sof food. it's fresh salad with vinaigrette dressing, homemade but just not by him.[break][break]

"are you vegetarian?"[break][break]

"I don't think it really matters either way, does it? You were either the one who broke trust, or the person whose trust was broken. Both make your asking that question ironic, just in a different way."[break][break]

An eyebrow lifted as he opened the picnic basket. Salad served on a volcano, that was a new one. She privately suspected lettuce and spinach didn't do well at this temperature, but without another choice available to her, she accepted it for what it was.[break][break]

"I'm not," she said, the faintest hint of amusement slipping out. "Do you think all gardeners are vegetarians?"

"i guess not."[break][break]

whether he broke it or Eva Morales matters little. it still remains broken at the end of the day, shattered into tiny little pieces for the next person to attempt to put together.[break][break]

he chuckles at her words.[break][break]

"it was a safe choice."[break][break]

odd considering he's not usually known to play it safe. perhaps he's being more considerate than normal.[break][break]

"i'll be sure to do better the next time."[break][break]

"Caution doesn't seem to be your typical modus operandi, if you don't mind my saying so."[break][break]

In Littleroot, anyway. Or in her flower shop, for that matter.[break][break]

The fact he cared what she thought perplexed her, still. She ate in silence, frustratingly no closer to understanding his motives than when this strange outing began. Glancing over her shoulder at him, she searched his face for an unspoken explanation. Nothing satisfactory revealed itself.[break][break]

"I didn't complain," she corrected him, and continued eating.

"oh, it really isn't."[break][break]

so why is he being so cautious? it's actually because he can't see her heart meter to gauge where he's at. should he push and be more aggressive? is he saying the right things?[break][break]

the fact that she doesn't deny that there will be a next time is good.[break][break]

after another bite of his salad, he places it down to reach forward to refill their drinks. he glances up at her while doing so, unabashed in the way he observes her.[break][break]

"why did you decide to move to hoenn?"[break][break]

"I wanted to go somewhere that no one knew me."[break][break]

Elisabeth left the answer there, somehow revealing and withholding at once.[break][break]

She didn't acknowledge his stare, instead focusing on the landscape sprawled out in front of them. At this height, falling would be lethal. An intrusive thought she didn't care to linger on.[break][break]

"And it's a place where most people don't matter. There's too much else to be concerned about. Like survival."

"So you're running from Kanto, then?"[break][break]

Challenging his assumption with her own, emerald eyes faced his, defiant. She watched him for any sign of a reaction, curious if this might spark some indignation, before following the thought with a simple explanation.[break][break]

"I have nothing left in Kalos waiting for me."

"in a way, yes."[break][break]

kanto remains the only true loss he's ever experienced. to not be able to stop his home from being taken over fills him with anger, rage, and an ever-burning desire for revenge.[break][break]

but he tells himself it is not loss. just a temporary setback.[break][break]

hearing her response, he makes another assumption, recalling their conversation in her cottage.[break][break]

"were you ever married?"[break][break]
