[She takes a seat as Tara gestures. There's so much she's learned and wants to share these last few months that they've been apart. About her connection to magic, and about Corruption. Still, she's willing to let Tara take the lead here.
A little smile pulls at the corner of her lips at the offered hands, and she takes them in hers.]
[It's a loaded question, given how much happened and what they need to come to terms with. Tara takes it as the kindness and concern it's meant as, offering a crooked smile, just like the old days.]
I think I'm leveling out my corruption.
[Which is good news, considering her earlier fears about it.]
[It feels like a nice bit of normalcy to sit here with Tara, holding onto her hands as they talk, and Willow can't help but return the smile with a small shy one of her own.]
That's good. Great, even.
[She gives a little shrug in response.]
I've been okay. Better than before. We, uh, have the house rebuilt, and I'm working on keeping corruption away too. So far, so good.
[It's a relief to know Willow is okay. She felt a bit like the old Willow she always loved.
There was a bit of hope that things could grow and be rebuilt, like the house and this sapling.]
You feel like you used to.
[She sighed, happy to have the feeling of Willow's energy around her again.]
I understand how you felt, by the way. When you were addicted to magic. It was hard for me to work through my corruption and I think- I think it was kind of like what you felt.
