Neraxis stepped back, nearly tripping as the ground, which had begun rapidly regaining color, shifted beneath him.
The buildings were still broken, obviously. However, the grass, which had been nothing but ash a few moments ago, was now starting to regrow.

"Sleep together?" Evangeline chuckled. "Your appearance is average at best, so I would never sleep with you."
Oof. Neraxis's brows twitched.
