"Mmhmm."

 

This one is definitely harder, and there's a clear sense that the result is... less clear, less distinct, less him... but they can do it, probably without needing a break first though they might want a breather after a few like that.

She's sorry, Oscbra, that she couldn't find you sooner, better.

 

...After the first break, she suggests checking to see who'd most prefer having others interred in the same holocron as them.  She can...transfer the people who don't mind sharing, in there.

Permalink

Yeah, that's a good idea.

There's a lot of them, and even at just a few minutes apiece it's going to take a while; does Diana want to keep going with them now, or do something else first?

Permalink

She wants to keep going.  It's hard work, and it's better done than looming.

Permalink

Entirely reasonable. Daisy can pass them the ashes and read off names, then.

Permalink

And Diana will love and grieve each and every one.

Permalink

Pradnakt doesn't, so much, instead being a quiet and comforting presence for her, but works no less diligently for it, even when she starts to tire after a few dozen transfers.

Permalink

"...We're taking a short break for comfort snuggling now," Diana declares once she feels Pradnakt waning.  "This is tough work.  We should both be in as best condition as we can manage."

Permalink

"Mm," she agrees, and snuggles into Diana's shoulder, tugging her down to lie on the bed.

Permalink

Yeah she needed this too.

She's just gonna snuggle in and cry a bit, okay?

Permalink

Perfectly okay.

Permalink

That's good.  Pradnakt is good, too, did she know that?  It's very true.

Permalink

Nosekiss; squeeze; shouldernuzzle.

Permalink

Soft cuddling continues for a long while that's nonetheless not actually particularly long, and eventually Diana thinks she's as recovered as she'll get.  Is Pradnakt?

Permalink

Yeah, she's good to keep going - maybe lunch first though.

Permalink

Lunch does sound pretty good.

Permalink

Snuggly lunch.

Zander comes out looking for lunch, too, and Pradnakt nods agreeably to him.

Permalink

Diana waves politely, and doesn't talk very much at all because there's lunch and snuggles.

Permalink

He gets something for himself and something to drop off with Kaymee and returns to his room.

Pradnakt stays snuggled up for a little while after the food is gone, and then sighs and tugs Diana up just as Diana goes to do the same.

Permalink

Well.  She's ready to continue, and hopefully finish this memorial.

Permalink

Yep. There aren't too many left, at least.

Permalink

That's good to know.

Permalink

And eventually they're done. Pradnakt passes the last holocron to Daisy and gives Diana a tight squeeze. "Did good."

Permalink

Diana hug-clings right back.  "Mhm.  We did."

Permalink

Snuggle.

 

    "She says both of you should keep to easy things for the rest of the day, ma'am."
