[Ramesses loosens his hold a little as she turns to face him, the hand at her cheek falling away to her waist once more.]

[In truth, there really isn't a time where Chariot fails to shine as far as he's concerned. Try as she might to hide it as she has in the past, something as brilliant as the heart that beats within her chest simply isn't able to be obfuscated or dimmed. Not even by her will.]

[His smile for her is warm as always, but it is a proud smile as well. Ramesses knows that Chariot's path to this point has not been an easy one and he understands her meaning. Just as there are parts of himself that belong only to her, so too does parts of her shine belong only to him. She gives it to him, pushing boldly past her own insecurities.]

Then let me see the full extent of your radiance. [There is little distance between them like this, but he tightens his hold on her all the same and brings their foreheads together gently. Fingertips begin to trace the length of her spine in a steady ascent.] Let your light shine so brightly that you appear the only star in all the heavens and I shall envelop you completely in my love and worship.
