The apologetic slant to her words gets a gentle smile. "That would be nice, but it's all right if you can't. Usually I'm the one wishing I could take people places. Into dreams, usually. I'm happy to hear about it. And dream about it."
"Of course. I'll only be a minute." He smiles as he gets up, the door opening at a lift of his hand. It doesn't take him long to return with a small ginger and white tabby in his arms that stretches out, digging her claws into his tie. "She's very playful so she nips sometimes, but hopefully she'll behave for you..." He rubs her head as he tries to untangle her from his tie. "Her name is Lyra. Would you like to hold her?"
There's a bittersweetness to hearing the precious memories Adia has of Caspar, but they are her memories. He can only live vicariously through them, but he suspects that's all he'll ever get so it will have to do. Besides, he is happy for her, that she had those moments. Especially when she has had to go through so much. "That's understandable. The sweetest dreams are the hardest to leave behind. You'll have them again, though, I'm sure of it. Or maybe even better ones."
