You don't talk much about him. Is it because you miss him so?
[Maul knows just a little of how much it hurts Usagi to away from those that she loves. He can't imagine the pain she feels being separated from Mamoru.
Maul scowls and folds his arms in a stubborn fashion when she tells him what he should be letting Savage know.]
I don't know if even that would be enough. His loyalty can be a bit blinding at times.
[Partially Maul thinks it's the spell that Talzin put upon Savage, to always loyally follow his brother's commands no matter what it was that Maul asked of him.]
[Her smile falls and she becomes much more forlorn, she's quiet for a moment before she puts a hand to her chest.] He... he is my soul mate, he makes me feel complete and whole in a way no one else ever can. Him not being beside me... it's a giant chasm in my chest where I know he should be and nothing... nothing can fill it. Nothing can come close. I feel... like... like there's a chain and lock around my lungs and until he's beside me again, I'm not going to be able to breathe easily. [She lets out a long breath.] But... as much as I ache, as much as it hurts to wake up every morning here and not have him beside me, not be able to call him or write to him and have him respond, I have other people who I love and who love me. I know he wouldn't want me to live every day just missing him, only focusing on his not being here. And, I have loved ones who need me.
So... I miss him... I can't even begin to put into words how much my world feels like it's just a thin shadow of itself without him here...
But I know Mamoru would never want me in pain, would never want me to only focus on the pain and the longing.
So, for his and my sake, I keep going.
And it's... it's easier to not bring him up, because I will... [She lets out a shaky breath, her eyes now watery.] if I start.... if I start I won't be able to stop and... [She wipes at her cheeks as a few tears fall.] And I just have to remind myself that I only miss him this much because I love him this much.
I never thought I could feel that way about anyone until I met Reaper. But he fills up a part of me I didn't even know was empty and makes me feel like there's no one else I'd rather spend my life with. I want to see his face first thing in the morning after I've slept beside him and know I couldn't ask for anyone more loyal to me.
[Which is just a long, convoluted way of saying he gets it.]
He sounds wonderful. You have such love in your heart and I know he must be a good, kind person for you to love him as much as you do. I know missing him shows that love, just in a different way than it would be if he was here beside you. You're a good person, Usagi, one of the very best I've ever met and I hope he finds his way back to you someday.
He is wonderful. [She immediately agrees, pulling out a handkerchief and wiping her eyes.] Even you would like him. Everything about him... he's... [He's just himself. He's Mamoru.]
I've waited thousands of years to be beside him, I just... I just have to wait some more, I guess. [Her hands move to her ring, the pink heart-shaped diamond is as much a part of her as her actual crystal. When she is desperate for Mamoru's warmth, she kisses it, and sometimes she imagines he's holding her or that she can smell the earth.
She lets out a breath, aware they've gotten way off track about Savage and Maul's memory.]
If he loves you as much as you love him, then I know great happiness shall await you when you two will finally reunite.
[He deliberately says 'will' instead of 'if.' He hates to think that this place would be so cruel as to keep Usagi from her soulmate for all eternity. Eventually, he would come to this place, and then his friend would have the piece of her heart that was missing back again.]
And I shall be glad to get to know him when the time comes.
And you think I'm joking, I am not. [Usagi's ENTIRE RELATIONSHIP has not gone a. single. fucking. year. without someone trying to woo or outright kidnap Mamoru to be with him. Mamoru is just that amazing, she DOES get it. Doesn't make it any less exhausting.] And before you go "oh but I have Reaper."
[He would like to say there is absolutely no chance of it happening but he can't be certain. Maul can't always tell how he'll react around people who are genuinely kind to him.]
It is a good thing then that I do not fall in love often.

Quiet, you.
[He's been without love for so long that sometimes he doesn't realize he still has a lot to give to people around him.]
Well, I think I am going to go find my brother and give him a hug. This memory was a good reminder of what we still have even after losing so much.
