The same went for another crush of sorts, though this one she had reflected upon as being gently reciprocated but...well...she supposed that the was too slow and immature to be pursued. She could hardly blame him for thinking such a thing, if he did, but she had thought that there had been something to their lakeside afternoons...much like she had thought there had been something to all the puzzle solving. "I suppose...anything is possible, really," she nodded in agreement. "It's okay, really...whatever will be will be...and it just...isn't time for me...you know?" Although she still could not imagine there being any romantic spirit floating in her direction anymore which, sometimes, she felt incredibly disappointed about. Other times there was this surreal sense of relief that enveloped her, especially in light of understanding just how much of herself she did not know...and how much literally chunks of her were missing. No wonder, honestly, because she was an incomplete person and a puzzle with missing pieces was rarely the one people wanted to play with.
But...all things she was not ready to talk about yet. Wanted to, desperately, but currently lacked the courage of conviction to open up too much about it with anyone. Well, save for the people she HAD to because, well, Reminisciators were just doing their jobs.
Anna kept her head against his shoulder while she listened, trying so hard to understand what was going on but and putting herself in both their shoes, trying fervently to empathise with both Solomon and Aurora...but there was just this odd disconnect and, just maybe, she was now terrified of how Aurora and Solomon (though perhaps more so Aurora given the current circumstances) would react once she shared her news after hiding it from them for a while. "So...you admitted to liking someone, person A, and... because the who you like changed ... you think Aurora is mad because you said you liked person A ... but you were about to kiss Pr--- Sage ..." she repeated slowly. She became less concerned with trying to sort it all out with Solomon literally withered in front of her like a dehydrated flower though. Which meant only one obvious course of action was needed: she wrapped her arms around him to help hold him together while he internally felt like he was sort of falling apart. "It really just sounds like a misunderstanding...I know you two will figure it out and be better for it," she assured him. "But...yeah...this does sound like a conversation you two just need to have, scary and difficult as it might seem." And wasn't that just the motto of growing up?
