[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.
