[ it's not often keyleth is comfortable with silence. she's anxious and eager to please, and that makes it hard to judge when she needs to be doing something to contribute.
but she can feel that this moment won't last much longer, and so adjusts so that she's seated beside chiron where she can listen to the quiet with him. and hold his hand, if he'll allow it, of course. ]
[For Chiron, silence is as natural as anything. It's the stillness that he embraces though, as that is what puts him in mind of his mountain, of the moments away from students he could enjoy, of those times spent with his family and no other creatures around.
The hand in his is warm, and it isn't a tether to reality at all. It lets his mind go further, and truly indulge in how the time doesn't seem to pass.]
[ after a little time passes, keyleth does finally give into her more fidgety nature.
she releases his hand, but only to change venue. there's probably a tickle at his scalp, because keyleth has separated out a small strand of hair to absently, delicately braid. ]
it is far too complicated and this is FAR too cute i'm gonna die

--Well. He isn't going to stop her. Instead, there's a small, warm laugh from him.]
How does it rank in comparison to other hair you've braided?
