I do believe that, and I'm glad for it.

I'd appreciate that. It would mean a lot to be able to just forget for a while, knowing he'll be back soon. I do have faith in that.

Of course he will. They all will. And they'll need you clear-headed and capable when they do.

If all it takes is a night or two of you temporarily surrendering your troubles at my doorstep, I will give you whatever you ask of me.

Carrying on no matter what's happening is what I do best.
It's the one thing I can do for others.

You're too good to me, Mistress. I think it truly will help and it's something you deserve. My attention, time and body.

You will be an even more significant presence for them once they've returned to find you well.

It will be your mind and body as well that will benefit, if I have any say in the matter. Did you enjoy what we did last time, in particular? Or is there anything else you find yourself curious about trying?

I try and remind myself it's when not if. This place though, you know? What if they got so far they can't make it back?

I enjoyed last time more than I thought I would. I didn't think I'd like giving myself over to you like that, given some things that happened in the past here but I liked it. More than that, I trust you.

I want to be there for you. To service you.

I suppose this is one case in particular where you must hold onto faith in your friends and their wellbeing. Trust that they will return. Hope is not lost so long as there are those who still carry it.

I am glad — no, honored, that you have placed such trust in me, and I shall endeavor not to take advantage of it. But you should also know that you pleased me greatly, and in allowing you to service me again I would be more content to see to your satisfaction as well as my own.

Will you come to my bed this time?

I am trying to do my best. I try and keep myself going despite everything that happens here.

You talk about being honored and yet you ask that? I would appreciate that and I plan to do all I can to continue to please you when you let me.

Sometimes that is all that can be done. We move on, and we endure.

I simply thought it would make a more comfortable environment for us than the sitting room. And I have the impression you would look particularly irresistible tied up to my headboard.

Yeah. I guess I've gotten used to my charmed life here so when this shit happens it just hits me hard. But you're right. All we can do is keep going.

... well when you put it like that.

You are positively delicious.

It doesn't mean the loss is any more significant, or that you deserve to experience it. But it can help to give yourself permission to feel other things in its wake.

You're very complimentary. And to think I haven't even tied you up yet.

It is in my nature to be complimentary but they're never false words. It's all because I think you deserve the truth.

Yet. I hope that's a promise you fulfill.

It's a good foundation for whatever exists between us. Truth. I hope it remains so.

The sooner you arrive here, Caleb, the sooner we can begin.
