Minted in Twilight

by Sunwalker of An'she Het'heru Silvermane

Time with Tazzi this evening was honestly everything I could have hoped it would be. As part of this polycule with Rory, she is an important facet of this relationship and I wanted to be friends with her, at the very least. So this time together was vital. I had the opportunity to get to know her, to share my worries and my burdens with her. She wants to help me find my Others, to find the people that meet MY needs and expectations. I may yet come to regret this, I could see the twinkle of goblin mischief in her eyes. But honestly, I would welcome the help. I am still uncertain in these waters I find myself in, so having someone to buoy me will be a boon.
 
We spoke of many things during the course of the night. There was talk of Rory, of course, but mostly it was talk about us and how we planned to support and uplift each other through all the trials and tribulations that remain ahead of us. How we were going to build a foundation from this that all of our friends could come to rely on so that none need walk their paths alone. Together, we learned that we are not so different, she and I, we are much of the same mind and the same heart -- we simply approach problems differently, but that is no bad thing. We balance each other, like An'she and Mu'sha, which Tazzy has seemingly embraced after the Story Circle last week.
 
I am not sure what I expected from this conversation, but I approached it with both open mind and open heart and I found myself rewarded. Tazzi and I bonded, we were affectionate with each other, I cuddled her in my lap as we spoke of all the things we had going on with us, individually, and how we might help one another. Right now, there is naught she can do for me concerning Elizaveta and the Syndicate, not until after the Gala and we see what comes of it. She already is hard at work on the matter of my Unknown Assailant. From here on out, it is our hope that we can come together -- along with Rory -- and be the center pillar by which all of our other friends can find unending support for the things that trouble them.
 
It was a much long overdue conversation and I do not think it could have gone more beautifully. Tazzi and I had an opportunity to bond and really enjoy each others' company without the endless chaos that usually revolves around us. I was calm and quiet, so was she. It was a side of her that I had never seen before, a side that I selfishly wanted to keep for myself. And Rory, I suppose.
 
Rory says that Tazzi and I are like twin coins minted off of the same press, unique and individual in our own way, but still very much the same at our core. Tazzi often likened us to An'she and Mu'sha, the Sun and the Moon, two constants in Rory's sky surrounded by the endless stars that are our friends. They are both wonderful thoughts and ones that I will cherish, always.
