But seeing her happy...</em><br/><br/>She listened as the human spoke, almost wanting to interrupt Riselin as she continuously put herself down. Only after she explained her orientation did Kenna respond.<br/><br/>“I think I understand,” she said. “I’m unsure if I’m caria or cepia, or if my attraction to others is purely on an individual level. There have been some people who didn’t believe me when I said I was unsure, so I can imagine what it feels like to have people ignore what you really want.”<br/><br/>Kenna returned the gesture, gently taking Riselin’s hand into her own, fingers interlacing.<br/><br/>“They do, both my adopted ones and my...original ones. Bloodline can be important to some, but family is far more than that.”<br/><br/>She leaned against Riselin. “If your parents don’t care for you, well then...someone out there does. And someday, you’ll find them.”<br/><br/>Already the young night person’s heart was beating. They only just met, but enjoyed being like this. A part of her wanted to embrace Riselin further, to show her that she has something of worth. And that even if she didn’t have that<em>something,</em>that didn’t mean she was unworthy of love.<br/><br/>And then she found herself staring at the raven-haired young lady. Even if not a model of statuesque perfection Kenna could see something appealing. That hearing her tale and opening up to each other made her more attractive despite not looking any different at all.<br/><br/>Warmth, closeness, darkness. It was brief but heavenly, as Kenna gave in and followed her heart, her lips meeting with Riselin’s own as she tilted her head and closed her eyes.
