[Elizabeth blinks, a little surprised at the poke, but she laughs softly and helps him maneuver. It's a little unfair maybe. Elizabeth is exhausted from her orgasm and Gai has been holding off for longer than she has. Just a few minutes, she thinks. She'll be alert again in a few minutes.]

[She turns her head after Gai kisses her and nuzzles him back. These moments are the ones she enjoys most, maybe. There's such deep affection between them right at this moment, Elizabeth almost feels like she and Gai have been together their whole lives.]

This is still your life. [She smiles, stroking Gai's cheek.] It's... an after-life maybe, but your life isn't nothing but fighting. [Elizabeth grins and pokes Gai's hip.] You're a lover now, if I have anything to say about it.

[She couldn't think about the subject of going back, not now.]
