Mini Timeskip!
Groaning a few minutes later, Lorelei starts to stir, eyes fluttering, herself personality wise but appearances that of Periwinkle, white hair and black eyes to match her lips Words: --- Addressed: --- Mentioned: ---

ZorZor leaned back a little and looked at her, expression guarded closely, still not knowing how to react. "Lorelei?" he murmured quietly.

"Lorelei?"
"Dozorce..." Lorelei murmurs, eyes opening, looks at him, tired "Where are we..."

"Dozorce... Where are we..."
His face twitched like it would crumble, but not a piece fell yet as he hugged her, taking a deep breath. "Where we met, years ago... Gods, I can't believe it..."

"Where we met, years ago... Gods, I can't believe it..."
Groaning softly at the hug, she raises her hand to grasp his face, stilling at the sight of it "My skin... It didn't work, did it?.. I lost to her.."

"My skin... It didn't work, did it?.. I lost to her.."
"You didn't lose if you're speaking," he replied, gently taking her hand in his, thumb running over it as he remembered its former darkness. "But, you haven't entirely won. Only time will tell."

"You didn't lose if you're speaking. But, you haven't entirely won. Only time will tell."
"But I still look like her... I'm still a monster." Lorelei murmurs, leaning against him "You think she'll come back?.."

"But I still look like her... I'm still a monster. You think she'll come back?.."
"You're not a monster," he said as he took her face in his hands, eyes searching. "It doesn't matter how you look now, you're there, and I know you are. As for her coming back, I don't know," he admitted, "but I do know that no matter what, you're strong."

Stilling, she looks at him, gaze meeting his and wavering, slides her hands over his gently, leaning into one "How's Riri?..." she asks quietly, small shake of her head, pushing the subject of Periwinkle to the side for now "Can I see him?"

"How's Riri?... Can I see him?"
He gave a meager smile, opening his mouth before he stops, realization hitting him hard, and his face paled just a little. "He's good. Grown... And fell in love. But....Lorelei, there's something I need to tell you..." his voice drifted to a whisper, eyes closing as he gathered his wits, trying to determine how to tell her.

Gaze softening a bit when she recognizes the look, she turns her head, gently kissing his right palm "What is it, Dozorce?" she murmurs quietly, calm "You can tell me anything."

"What is it, Dozorce? You can tell me anything."
He hesitated a moment longer, taking a deep breath to steady himself. "After you died," he started, voice quiet, "years after, I had...met another. Gods, at the time I was lost and didn't know what to do, and Riad was a mess." He shook his head and looked down. "Eventually things grew, and we married, and...had another son, Elias." He paused, memories resurfacing. "But like you, she disappeared without a trace... And that was it, I thought I was done in. I tried my damnedest to remain level for the boys, but in the end, I failed and lost my battle to the grief, and...abandoned them."
His hand pulled gently away from her and ran through his hair, a habit that his youngest picked up from him. "Christ, Lorelei, I've ruined it all. Elias wants nothing to do with me, Riad is much wiser beyond his years and makes me feel out of place. I couldn't protect you and I couldn't protect Nova." A bitter laugh escaped him as he shook his head. "It's like I was damned from the very beginning."

It's like I was damned from the very beginning.""You've ruined nothing." She murmurs, sliding her hand into his "You've kept our boys, mine and Nova's, alive. That's more then any mother could ask for, and I'm sure she would say the same. But Dozorce, you need to reconnect with them. You're their father. And if Elias is anything like Riad when he was younger, he needs you." Words: --- Addressed: --- Mentioned: ---

His hand curled around hers, eyes looking at them. "Elias, he's... Worse than what Riad was. And after I left, Riad brought him up... But, something happened between them, a fight or something. Riad stayed on the brighter side and Elias got mixed up with Lucifer and his goons, killing people. Riad found him a couple of days ago, but he wanted nothing to do with him or me."

"Even more of a reason to find him." Lorelei murmurs softly, grasping his hand "Can I meet your other son? And can I see ours? Or would I scare him..."
