<p>“I really can’t lose you. You know that right?” Ey felt her stiffen in eir arms, continued, “I said ages ago that I’m not built for a life with death in it. That’s why I’m here. That’s why I uploaded in the first place, to get away from that.”</p>

<p>“Ioan,” she said, voice hoarse. “I already-“</p>
|
||||
<p>“I know, you already promised. I believe you. I’m not trying to berate you, I’m trying to say I love you.”</p>

<p>“Ioan Bălan, if you make me cry again, I will smother you on your sleep.”</p>

<p>“Ioan Bălan, if you make me cry again, I will smother you in your sleep.”</p>

<p>Ey laughed. “It sounds like it’s already too late.”</p>

<p>“Thin fucking ice, buddy.” May sniffled and squirmed around until she could tuck back against eir front. “I love you too, my dear, top to bottom and front to back.”</p>

<p>As ey settled in for sleep, kissing the backs of the skunk’s ears, ey marveled that ey could only remember the Ioan who never thought to form attachments, who could never remember to ask May if they were in a relationship, who continually wondered how she wound up in eir life as some other person. That Ioan was gone. Ey had slipped out while the Ioan ey was now wasn’t looking, and had never come back. Ey wished em luck, this younger version of emself. Ey wished em happiness and fulfillment. And, should that Ioan ever find emself struck by the wonder of love, ey wished em courage in the face of it.</p>
