River hugged her back, though it was still a little half hearted. He felt all the hate for himself and how he'd been treating her rushing back in, as if the hug just reminded him of what he was. "I love you, too," he choked, suddenly overwhelmed with emotion with emotion now. He held her a little tighter, not really expecting to let go first.

@river When he didn't let go, Rusti got the impression he didn't want to. Maybe he hadn't changed as much as he thought he had. She squeezed him once then pulled back slightly and looked up at him. "Riv, if you really want to change like this, then do it. Don't feel bad about it. Okay?" She understood the need for change. She understood the fear of change, and she knew exactly how it felt to have those around you stay the same. It wasn't easy. But she wanted to help River. She just wanted to be there for him. She pulled back into the hug for a moment then stepped back. "you probably shouldn't be seen hugging someone for so long." she teased. |

River nodded at what she said, at her encouragement. He smiled softly, "thank you. Thanks," he muttered. He accepted being pulled back into the hug before she teased him about it. He chuckled, taking a step back and holding both arms up next to his head. "You're right. You're cramping my style," he joked. He lowered his hand and placed them in his pockets, "where were you headed? Can I walk you? Family is important to this type... after all," it was true, too. Pure blood families thrived on family bonds and relationships. That's why betrothals happened in the first place.

@river Rosaria smiled at her brother. It looked like this would be okay. He wasn't going to ignore her, which terrified her. One of the few people she loved ignoring her? She didn't know what she would do. " I didn't really have anywhere to go. Just... I was thinking about going to see what-- nevermind." she said quickly, feeling blush rush into her cheeks. Part of the reason she didn't want to say she wanted to see Gaius was because she had avoided him for so long. He was also quite rude. Or at least, he was, until they had started their research... But also, she was conflicted about her feelings for the Ravenclaw. She didn't actually know what she felt toward him. Or maybe she did and just wasn't ready to admit it yet. |

Never mind? What was she about to say? That blush was enough to peak his curiosity and his eyebrow raised rather high. "Wait, what? What is it?" he implored, reaching out to clasp her arm lightly. He didn't like secrets being kept between them, but if it was something personal he'd understand... but his Eagle curiosity would eat at him!

@river She fought the tiny smile at the corners of her mouth. But this was River. She couldn't hide much from him. Maybe if she hadn't said anything, but it was too late for that. "I just... was going to say... I was thinking about, maybe, going to see what Gaius was doing." she got softer as the sentence went on, becoming nearly inaudible when she said his name. The instant the words were out, she knew they were true. She did want to know what he was doing, which was a strange feeling. She looked up at River nervously, waiting for his reaction. |

River tilted his head to the side at her words. He opened his mouth, then closed it, then opened it again. "You... have you been talking to him?" River was shocked, almost to the point that he couldn't even emote as to how shocked he was. He didn't know that Rusti even gave a darn about her betrothed, but the way she had just said his name... almost like a reverent whisper, made Rivers eye widen. "Since when?" he added.

@river For some reason, Rusti felt the need to explain herself. She wouldn't do that with anyone else.Well, Dusti, but Dusti and River were the only people Rosaria felt truly safe with. And River deserved to know. But what was it he needed to know? She was still figuring it out. "We were partnered for a research paper at the end of last year and we actually worked really well together. Other than that... we have only spoken at the lunch and in passing since then, but, he's not like the rest of them." she realized that she was sounding like an idiot and looked down, blushing. "I know that sounds stupid." she said softly. |

River was kind of amazed by what was being said right now. She was actually enjoying spending time with Gaius? Albeit sparingly? It was... well, River didn't know him that well. Maybe he wasn't bad. River lifted a hand to place it on her shoulder, "hey, it's not stupid," he said. "Sometimes I even think Vi isn't that bad," he teased, bending down to look in her eyes and smile, "but really, there's nothing wrong with giving the guy a chance." he encouraged. Then he looked down at his wrist watch and jumped. "I gotta go. Ill see you soon?"
