Getting some outside air is always nice. Refreshes the senses. Perks you up.

We can take some tea out there if you're thirsty.

[ He's already asked some of the castle staff to set up a table, in fact, which Adora will find is waiting for them when they get to the nearest curated garden in the castle. It's technically enchanted to always be the perfect weather, but it counts as outside air enough even if it is slightly... adjusted. Considering Rhy grew up with magic all around him and similarly perfected, polished gardens and balconies, it's never struck him as odd.

He invites her to sit, and being a gentleman, pulls the chair out for her. ]

[ There's a small smile that tugs at the corner of her lips, and she thanks him quietly as she sits. She's never gone through this before, she doesn't know what to say or do first. Her eyes roam instead, appreciating the beauty of the space. ]

Outside of the Horizon, being in the gardens is my favorite place to be. Especially when I'm alone.

[ Her throat tightens and she looks down at the table as her vision blurs. ]

I guess that's going to be a lot more now.

I feel the same way. There's something calming about the greenery and the sunlight. [ Even if it's sometimes enchanted.

Rhy reaches over to put his hand atop hers, if she'll let him. ]

...I'm sorry, Adora.

I know how much it hurts, not knowing what happened to her. But we have to believe she's all right.

That you'll see her again.

I just—I don't understand. Why pull her here at all if she wasn't going to be here very long, what was the point?

[ She doesn't wish Catra had never come, she can't wish time away, but it still hurts. ]

I thought we'd finally have a chance to just be normal. Our first kiss, I was dead, Rhy. Our second kiss, I was barely alive. Then we were here, and I thought maybe, even though I was without everyone else, I had her and we could figure out us.

[ She has her burst of just-out-of-teenhood petulance, then looks slightly embarrassed. ]

Sorry, you're right, I know you are. Istredd told me she went back to the moment she left, and everything is okay.
