I suppose I will just have to stay as often as I can.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Now that I would be delighted by.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

As would I. Being close like this is...

[well it's basically the best but he's not going to say that]

It's pleasant.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

[It is the best stop being shy]

My, only pleasant? Well, I suppose that is fine.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Please stop teasing me.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Now why would I do that?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Because you have already thoroughly defeated me as it is, so you could show a little mercy.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Nonsense, I must savor my victories while I may.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

I have changed my mind, you are terrible and I want nothing to do with you.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Oh is that so?

[He squeezes Elidibus in his arms.]

What a terrible shame for you. I do not feel like letting go.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

I see, so now I am being held against my will. Do your crimes know no end?

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

I fear they do not! A pity for you, but I am undeterred.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Then I will simply have to accept my fate.

[smooches his cheek]

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

[Oh no, cute. He ruffles his hair gently.]

Glad am I to hear it.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

[just quietly cuddles for a few moments before,]

...A few days ago, I was asked a question that gave me some pause.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

...What was it?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Whether I love Emet-Selch.

I do, of course. I love both of you. But the context was... different.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

And what was your answer?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

I was not able to give one in the moment, for defining that emotion in words seems an impossible task.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Then what are your thoughts? Perhaps you can find the words as you speak.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

[speaking slowly and hesitantly because feelings are confusing and talking about them like this still feels like something he shouldn't actually be doing]

I want to take care of you and guide you. I want to see you smile. I want you to have everything you want, but I want to have you all to myself. I want to be close to your body and heart and soul, always.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

[Honestly his arms around Elidibus might be too tight.]

It is a very similar feeling for me. The two of you are indispensable in my life and my heart. I wish for your happiness, to see you thrive, and yet I am jealous of those that might hold your attention.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

[that's fine because he's holding on right as well]

Is that love?

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

I wonder if it could be anything else?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

I love you. I love you so much.
