[/ he broke away for a moment and paused, no words given
[/ he was simply grinning like an idiot and scanning ethan's pretty lil face with his hand still in place, accompanied by a light graze along ethan's cheek with his thumb

//as he does so his eyes are locked on mason's eyes, really just admiring everything about him, until he moves in once again

[/ reaches down to grab ethan by the wrist a bit suddenly, but he had his reasons
[/ he guided ethan's hand upwards, wrapping his pinkie around the other's

" ...we're like this! "

[/ and with that, his grin becomes more sentimental and genuine, the widest smile he can muster the flashed most if not all of the imperfections of his teeth and the slight wrinkles on the corners of his mouth from him smiling too much

//mason telling him that he's corny only makes it better for him, and gives him more reasons to smile cause in a way that tells ethan that hes saying all the right things 

"Course I know that! Ya never stopped bein my best friend either,"
//as mason goes on ethan looks off to the side, only to look back at mason with a somewhat more sheepish expression 
"Well I suppose you're right, ya are lucky cause ya get ta date me!"
//though after a short chuckle quickly he goes back to how he was looking at mason before 
"An' if yer the lucky one... I don't even think there's anythin that'ya can call me- How extremely lucky we both are,"

//admittedly though at that rather sudden movement ethan almost jumped, not having expected anything like that 
//but realizing what mason is doing he just let him- oh they are all smiles aren't they? Completely happy with each other just the way they are, not minding any flaws as every flaw only makes the other more perfect 

"As close as a pinkie swear!"
//Ethan knew exactly what mason meant with that gesture 
//and almost right after that exclamation ethan goes on to basically do this 66.media.tumblr.com/1849c6f27a…

"I jus love ya way too much ta even think bout it! I can't be without ya,"

//that last 'i love you' on mason's behalf brought up so many emotions- everything related to love, everything related to them

[/ mason could feel the atmosphere get heavier, however, not in a bad way at all
[/ this was the first exchange between them with this much passion put into their words, and mason could hear it in ethan's tone and by the way he gripped onto his shirt
[/ he didn't expect it at all
[/ but now mason reacted based on complete emotion of the moment
[/ he buried his face into ethan at his head level, throwing his arms around him with as much intensity to show that reciprocation
[/ ethan's familiar smell of clean fabric and pine only added to this
[/ it smelled like home
[/ ethan was home
[/ he looks up, close enough to the side of ethan's face to speak more quietly, in a way that he never usually spoke
[/ he was always upbeat and silly, however, now mason felt something different; a completely new feeling in a great intensity
[/ that was love, and he could feel his entire body warming up from the mere thought of it all
[/ finally he spoke

" ethan. i love you too, so, so much. so much in fact that i can make up for nearly 200 years in the past and any amount of time that is to come... we're old states, y'know? you n' i... we'll quite literally be together forever. n' i want that so much, ethan, all i need is you. "

//at that point ethan didn't really know how mason would react 
//he was aware of the fact that the tone and the nature of their conversation had changed 
//still though... he was somewhat surprised at the delicate way in which he responded
//however- it was exactly the kind of gesture that he needed, just having mason hold him too, be as close to him, there was nothing more he wanted in this moment or whenever else 

//ethan went on to position his head on mason's shoulder, leaning into the embrace a bit more 
//speaking in a softer and calmer manner wasn't anything out of the usual for ethan, yet in this case, there was still something different about it that would set it apart from his usual way of speaking 
//the way he would go on to respond was simply full of sincerity, a complete honesty and openness of emotion

"Ya don't have ta make up for anythin,"
//a brief pause, looking for the right words 
"Our history, all that, it's behind us, things can't be changed,"
//he speaks in reference to all of the possible mistakes that he made, that either of them could possibly be thinking about 

//closes his eyes as he continues, holding on a bit more tightly 
"But where we are now.. that kinda love won't go away,"
"I won't let anythin get between us,"
"Cause I know without ya I wouldn't be the same, I need ya jus as much as I need- well, anythin I need ta live,"
//he just wants to relish in the moment, saying exactly what he's thinking and feeling is an experience beyond great, because he knows that mason will be able to understand what he means

{ HAVING } just gotten off the boat earlier that day, Solveig was admittedly a bit fatigued, especially with all that had been going on back at home–although, that didn't steer her away from her intentions here in the new land. As anyone close to Solveig would know, she had a one track mind and would accomplish anything she absolutely set on... and that thing just so happened to be a little ray of sunshine.

More often than not, Solveig was notorious for avoiding others when she wanted to find peace of mind, but there was something about this little boy that brought a smile to her face–something not many others could accomplish, as she generally takes herself incredibly seriously when in the presence of other people. Ever since she first met the little blonde, however... she knew she had to see more of him. Initially, in their first couple of encounters, she stumbled upon him clearly for business... land was her main priority, since her population was getting a little bit out of whack–but that's how she got hooked. His smile was as warm as a sunrise over the Mississippi, adorned with freckles like stars sprinkled across the dawn of the sky that hasn't fully awakened in the A.M. Needless to say, this child was one she wanted to visit. That might've been her motherly nature speaking, but in her defense, she hadn't had a child to dote on in quite a while now that she had been under first Denmark's and then Sweden's ruling. This visit gave her some autonomy, which was another advantage... but for now, it was all about seeing those endearing blue eyes and wild blonde hair of his. Who knows, maybe she could tidy him up a bit?

Her venture continued, the cylindrical shape of the familiar fort and glistening of the river becoming visible over the horizon as she approached. Pushing some blonde locks back into an opal pin in her hair and tightening her grip on a sack she had brought along, she moved her hand further up to shade her eyes from the sun to see more clearly.

If I'm not mistaken... she spoke to herself in thought, squinting to see more acutely. ...He should be somewhere around here. After all, this was around the area she had discovered him in the past. Walking a bit closer, she noticed a small figure at the base of the river, that got even more detailed with more steps taken... that long blonde hair, it was indubitable that this was the child she had looked forward to meeting once again, only this time, in her own setting of willingness. She could feel the corners of her mouth curve upwards (which was rather rare, these days–a smile from Solveig was a true gift) as she moved faster towards the little one. Ethan... That was the name he had given her the last time she came into contact with him, and it stuck with her. Ethan. Ethan.

"Ethan...?" Solveig had that upward infliction of uncertainty, mostly because she was a bit nervous that maybe there was a slight chance he wouldn't remember her from their last encounters. It was, however, hopeful... and he seemed to take a liking to her in the past, so why wouldn't he now...? Oh, there were many what-ifs that Solveig could imagine–but there was no going back now. She stopped a few feet away from him, clutching the sack fashioned out of cloth before her, a (hopefully) approachable smile on her face.

For the little boy residing on the Mississippi river, the days usually went by rather uneventfully. All of the other people within the fort that he called his home appeared to always be somehow preoccupied with their own matters, rarely giving him any of their attention. And aside from the Sunday school which Ethan attended with some of the other kids from around the area, there was almost never an opportunity for him to interact with those of his age- or at least the age that he appeared to be. Now and then Ethan would have the opportunity to look forward to meeting up with some closer friends of his, Mason, Jolie... But it had been a while since either of them had payed a visit, or rather that Ethan never had the chance to travel to meet up with them.

So, he was usually found alone. All that, however, never put Ethan's spirits down. Thinking to himself that he would simply have to find ways to entertain himself and occupy his own time. The kid was quite creative when it came down to that, managing to find something new for himself to explore whenever there was a need. One day he'd spend countless hours in the woods, collecting different kinds of leaves and comparing them, first sorting them by color, maybe by size, trying to take in all of the little details of the edges and patterns. Another day he would be found in a near by wheat field, trying to catch as many grasshoppers as he could. He also showed a keen interest in ducks and loons, being able to spend almost a whole day, from sunrise up to the evening, lying on his belly right by the edge of the pond and watching as the birds swam about. 

Today's activity involved him sitting right at the river bank, dropping different kinds of little stones into the water and seeing how big of a splash they made. So far he had concluded that bigger stones meant bigger splashes and if you dropped them down from even higher, the splash would be even bigger. Little things like that really fascinated him, a kind of interest in the world around him that was hard to find in other children. And so he continued, the sun above his head reflected on the surface of the river, as well as his golden hair, giving off a warm shimmer. His equally bright blue eyes focused on the task at hand. 

Yet a few moments later he heard something coming from behind him, as if footsteps in the tall grass of shoreline. Then... someone said his name, which prompted Ethan to turn around almost right away. Someone came out here to find me? He thought to himself, the question both excited him and intrigued him, further wondering what the occasion would be. Standing up, he brushed his long fringe away from his eyes to get a better look as he gazed up at the figure before him. With a tilt of the head he studied her... and within moments he managed to recognize who it was that was standing before him. The long blond hair, similar to his, the eyes, that same smile that he remembered from.. it seemed so long ago.. but that didn't matter. A wide grin broke out on his face, as without any further hesitation he rocketed towards-

"Solviii!!!" Ethan shouted her name, his excitement more than self evident.

Almost jumping at her, he wrapped his arms around he hips, that being as far as he could reach and hugged her in such a way, holding on rather tightly. Then all of the memories of their previous encounters came rushing in, how much fun he had spending time with her, all the things that she had shown him and.. that language? Yes! The language she had taught little pieces of to him, so different from anything else that he had heard. All of that he now recalled as he grinned up at her.

"You're here!!!" He continued, "Jeg er så glad!!!" It came naturally to him, a phrase that she had taught him before, pronounced without any problems and truly emphasizing how delighted Ethan was to see her.
