[ Romance has been on that particular duty for a long, long time. Abby would be right not to trust him. Romance has spent centuries molding himself into whatever shape Gwi-Ma needed - temptation, distraction, seduction, executioner. He's a honeypot, and he's very good at being something he isnβt.
He's also an incredibly toxic little thing. People really shouldn't get involved with him at all, not beyond their little potential boy band group.
When he's himself it doesn't tend to go well. Limerance is a tidal wave that drowns both him and his victims, and Abby's already wandered into the danger zone. It's far to easy to picture the two of them visiting the sea, feeling the sunlight and hearing the thrum of hooves in sand. A fine meal shared, all the sujo they can consume.
It's something he's trying to forcibly hold back. Romance can quickly become too much, and he is barreling in that direction, head first. And Abby is...different. Romance has certainly been around the block a few hundred times, but then Abby says We can always break mine next, and winks at him like some gorgeous idiot, and Romanceβs restraint goes up in flames. ]
Yes. [ The answer whooshes out of him, coasting on both a sigh and a laugh, lips curving into a smile. ] Yes, I do.
