Knowing that it was coming to an end seemed almost hard to believe.</p>
<p>Katrina was never one for goodbyes but she knew she would see more of the wonderful woman. They would see be living under the same roof, Katrina knew she always had a busy schedule because of her work but it would be incredible to if the time to speak with her.</p>
<p>"I'm certain I will have many more memories here that are wonderful. And like you said we will hang out more in the future." With that she watched as she seemed different about Katrina holding the woman's hands.</p>
<p>Letting them go she smiled and watched as she smiled and wished her goodnight. With a nod of her head she grinned and couldn't help but smile and have an aching sadness their evening was over.</p>

<p>“Make the most of that fortune, you never know when you’re going to need it” she advised with a slight nod of her head before she tucked the pie away into the fridge once more “I think in their very nature people want to be good, and that’s enough” she nodded a few times, of course there were people who did bad things but they always seemed to be a result of the life they lead and the things they were taught.

<p>Ophelia looked down at the hands she took and then up to her and smiled, it was a little bit emotional, getting to know someone who was like her for the first time, there was a certain kind of kinship that came from both being the same species and having similar stories. She nodded her head and smiled softly “Have a good night Katrina and enjoy your new home, I hope you’ll have good memories here” and with that she headed off, smiling at her over her shoulder as she headed into the corridor that led to her room.</p> Katrina smiled at her the con…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-09-18:6610746:Comment:4145742020-09-18T15:52:10.781Z✓ Katrina O'Sullivanhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/KatrinaMidwife

It was nice to have a friendship with someone, quiet seemed to be her life, living it on her own as not to bother others by her eternity of life, her loneliness was not in the sense of lack of companionship as with her work she was always busy. But friends, true people who knew her it was nice.</p>
<p>"True, I'm fortunate and I know it. I guess I just believe others should as well. But whatever makes you happy in life." She noted as she ran a few fingers through her hair, playing with its strands before noting her momentarily. When she spoke of her family she seemed to be well in thought with it all. </p>
<p>"Well, I am glad they were able to provide that sense of... family for you. I can't speak highly of such, but many humans had treated me with kindness at that time, giving me lots of information. Teaching me lots of things that I needed to survive this world." She said with a nod of her head as she thought back on her past. How times had changed, for the better though.</p>
<p>"Oh yes, we will, I promise! It was so much fun part of me doesn't want it to end. This kind of bond has not been frequent in my life, but I feel we are going to become the best of friends, or at least I hope so. Keeping me full of excitement about everything." She said as she was practically jumping with joy.</p>
<p>"Thank you very much for your kindness, I can't appreciate it enough, and it will be so much fun to get to know each other more." She urged herself a bit closer, gently grabbing her hands and holding it softly, she didn't know if the other celestial was a hugger and didn't want to approach their goodbyes on terms that might not befitting. </p> She chuckled under her breath…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-09-17:6610746:Comment:4147012020-09-17T15:46:56.152Z✓ Ophelia Dreyvalian ~Admin~https://eternalcityrp.com/profile/IcePrincess

<p>She nodded thoughtfully, it had been hard leaving the family that took her in behind but she knew her calling was elsewhere and they understood that too “I stayed in contact with them and they protected my secret until the day they died” she nodded a few times “Not everyone is lucky enough to know love like that” she pressed her lips together and smiled softly.</p>
<p>She widened her eyes when she noticed how much time had passed and then laughed under her breath “Time flies when you’re having fun don’t they say” she smiled encouragingly and then shrugged “Though you’re right, I should probably let you get around to arranging your new room” she gave her a stern look “And I’ll see you one evening for that wine and chat you promised?” she grinned playfully.</p> She took a moment to listen t…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-09-15:6610746:Comment:4146802020-09-15T13:00:33.524Z✓ Katrina O'Sullivanhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/KatrinaMidwife

<p>"It sure does, but its all I ever knew. I have done it since I first fell. But it keeps me most intrigued and it never seems old. Every experience gives me something wonderful to walk away with." As she spoke about blessing and curses she nodded her head along eagerly. </p>
<p>"Most moments I can enjoy it, but having people leave my life just as quickly hurts a lot. It makes you wish things were different. Oh isn't that amazing that you had a family? That must have been hard, leaving them. But those callings are sneaky little things and they can take over your entire life." She took a deep breath as she looked around the room for a moment, taking in the sights before her. </p>
<p>"I have taken so much of your time, you were doing some important painting weren't you. Oh my, the time gets the better of me.

<p>She nodded slightly, Ophelia knew the cycle of not aging well, you had between 5 and 10 years before people started to notice that you weren’t aging, depending on how old you naturally looked, then you had to put down everything you knew and move on “Immortality can be both the biggest blessing and curse” she confessed with a knowing look. “I fell in England, thankfully I was lucky enough to be taking in by a family and they took care of me” she nodded a few times “But like you, before long I had to leave them behind, though it wasn’t my immortality that sent me on my way but rather this feeling in my chest like there was somewhere I needed to be” she smiled softly.</p> "Fear holds us back, as Rudya…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-09-07:6610746:Comment:4144622020-09-07T13:29:56.792Z✓ Katrina O'Sullivanhttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/KatrinaMidwife
