It is personal, but that's okay. I've been in love, yes. And I can have a family, too. I'm immortal, but I age the same as anyone else. My lifespan lasts the same as a human's, only mine has a reset button once all is said and done. And it's not- It's not as painful as you'd think. I've been lucky to fall in love before, in those other lives.
[ though it's a wonder she even let him talk that much, sitting up a bit just so she can look at him properly, still close enough to keep her voice quiet. both of her hands are holding onto his now, thumbs smoothing over his knuckles ]
I've technically been around a long time but I'm still just sixteen, too. This lifetime is the only one that matters to me. And you're a part of that. There's nothing insignificant about you, Casey. [ she grins, nervous but still sincere, happy to tell him these things ] You've kinda been the best part of this life so far. In, um, a long time. Never ever doubt that, okay?
