Quistis flashed from fuel to flame to embers while the rest of them were smoke rising from green wood. Collapsing back to ashes and on the cusp of failing, turned to him to meet - silence. Swaddled in his own shadow; unwilling.

Quistis, moon-dark in her gloom, hears the unquenchable laughter, thinks why not? Crooks a crescent finger.
