You read my mind…

-Gently draws him back down toward the comfort and privacy of their tent.

Pulls him down into the collection of furs and blankets they’ve collected on their travels.-

-Closes the flap of their tent so no one will disturb them~ -

[ Eyes shut, relishing the affection. ]

Well, I've got nothing but time...

[ He nestles his nose into chestnut locks, smoothing hands along Gale's back. ]

But I think right now, I'd rather be spending it catching up with my wizard~

[ Kissing the side of his head. ]

Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep @mrdekarios.bsky.social · Nov 8

-smiles and leans in to kiss him before answering.

And kisses him again.

Okay, one more time.-

There is little doubt… I could feel it.

But it’ll take time.

-Softly nuzzles him.-

[ Gods, he's precious. Like a nerdy little puppy. Astarion scritches his chin sweetly. ]

Hm... I think I can manage that.

[ Doesn't sound too challenging. Gale would be doing the hard part. ]

... Do you really think it'll have what we're looking for...?

Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep @mrdekarios.bsky.social · Nov 8

-Relaxing in the touch.-

You’re technically not wrong.

I will have to read the book… Navigate the arcane maze.

You would keep an eye on me. Make sure I don’t get too lost. Perhaps even pull me out if I get too deep.

-protrudes his chin a little as his beard is rubbed-

Together...?

[ He chuckles, holding Gale's jaw in his palm and idly rubbing his thumb over his beard. ]

How would that even work?

You turn the pages, and I hold your head on straight so it doesn't go spinning off your shoulders?

-Cupping his partner’s face with both hands.-

It holds many things I already knew… but its deepest secrets are very deep in the sinew.

I’ve come to discover the book is too dangerous to explore alone.

If we’re going to get a cure out of it, we’ll have to do it together.

-Bathing in the river.-

Gods it’s cold…

You little scoundrel~

[ He teases with a devious smile, settling a hand on the wizard's waist and holding him close. ]

... Learn anything interesting~?

Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep @mrdekarios.bsky.social · Nov 8

Well… Actually.

-timidly twirls one of Astarion’s curls around his finger-

I maaaaay have snuck a peek at your necromancy book.

Just a little peep… I couldn’t help myself.

Pity. I was hoping to come back to a story or two~

[ Chuckling, he tilts his head to allow Gale to shower affection as he pleases. ]

Maybe some smoldering ruins...

[ He makes a soft sound as the wizard's warm lips tease against his ear. ]

Mmh... How sweet of you to save all your mischief for me~

Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep @mrdekarios.bsky.social · Nov 8

The only trouble I get into is when you’re around~

-He sways playfully with Astarion and kisses his neck, jaw, cheek, even the sensitive edge of his ear. Very lightly of course-

My sweet~

[ The book is quickly forgotten, dropped unceromoniously as Astarion reciprocates the embrace, nestling into the crook of his neck.

Beyond the heat from Gale's body, he feels a warmth from within to see how dearly he was missed. ]

Cause any trouble while I was away?

-Wakes slowly when the book is taken away. The sight over him bring a warm smile to his face.-

My love!

[ A fond smile creeps onto his face.

Reading the title, he can't help but chuckle. ]

𝘋𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘢?

[ He teases softly, lifting the book from the wizard's face to read the opened passage. ]

𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺?

I understand this may be a difficult time for most.

I made pumpkin bars…

I’m mildly terrified by this.

I’m reading Dracula.

I miss Astarion.

-huffs a soft laugh, relaxing into the doting touch-

I’ll be sure to remember that…

Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep @mrdekarios.bsky.social · Nov 6

Nothing particularly monumental.

Just tired… and lonely.
