[ McGillis is not surprised that these serious things came up way too early. During their last week in Aira Niluc, they'd put everything from their minds and tried to cram as much joy into the little time they had left as possible. Now that they have their whole lives to spend, McGillis can't help to return to his own priorities... He really is not a lighthearted person, in the end. He'll always ask the hard questions. Maybe that will be a problem eventually. Maybe it won't.

That's a problem for the future. In the moment, he grins. ]

Hmmm, that's difficult. We haven't seen each other in so long after all...

[ Still smiling widely, McGillis leans down and presses a kiss to... Huaisang's forehead. ]

Something like this, maybe? Am I getting close?
