[ Well. Hopefully this won't give off the wrong idea. ]
I think I need some time apart. Not like -- broken up. I'd still want to talk over text or the phone or video or whatever. Talking, but at a distance. I just want to get my head on straight before I see any bite marks on you, because I know that would really kick me off.

And -- you and he can take some time. There's a masquerade on one of the airships in a while, so after that I'll assess where I am.
[ Venti's disappearance would have made that inevitable anyway. She won't want to see anyone but Yuri, and then she'll only want to see people she's okay being in that particular kind of pain in front of. ]
It would also help if I could add a bedroom with a bathroom to your house where we could stay when I'm over. Where only you and I go, and Shen Hong if she wants to, no one else. I know from my husband that it helps if there's a place where I won't smell someone else, especially someone else's blood. [ This would also eliminate the concern he had about other flings. Plus she could leave some clothes and things over and it wouldn't be in MK's face. ] We could also put the mirror portal in there so it's unobtrusive.
[ She's not going to ask him to moderate talking about MK, since she hadn't intended to say anything like that. ]
