The Words Just Came Out - TOS2 drabble

The words just came out.
Tales of Symphonia 2: Knight of Ratatosk Richter/Emil Drabble

Just a short little thing from one my notebooks I write in when I travel with nothing else to do. Richter and Emil have a very complicated relationship, as I have expressed on my fanart of the two.











It was a small town fearful for its life that was the end of my search and beginning of my chase.

The winds brush tresses against my cheek and almost made me miss him. My chest swells heat and I could do nothing but stand and choke on the name branded in my throat.

Our eyes met, if he was him then he had to know. Smirking lips would have creeped into a grin and mischievous eyes challenge me. No, those hollowed eyes looked past me; he wasn’t him. He was a tormented youth. Endearing, but not worth my time.

Yet he keeps coming back again with vulnerable eyes shining like sunlit leaves. Such eyes aren’t your eyes… yet they still hold power over me.

“I’m sorry.” Yours is a breathy voice quick to shield itself from advances, and seek forgiveness for its existence. Such words you would never say, but the amber timber sounds like home.

You should be strong, spirited, defiant, because if you aren’t, then you aren’t him. And I want you to be him so I don’t have to destroy you.
