Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

"At first I didn't know how." Arryn kissed his cheek. She had to admit, when they were first getting close, she'd had no idea what to make of it. But she was glad she had figured it out.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn ran his hand down and started playing with Arryn's ear as he smiled. "Sometimes it takes a little bit of work, but all of the effort was worth it in the end." He leaned forward and pressed his forehead against her's. "Every day with you makes it all worth it to me."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn didn't knwo how to respond to that, so she just leaned forward a bit for a quick kiss.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn pulled Arryn close so that they both could nuzzle against the other. Words didn't seem appropriate at the moment.

 

[Dragongal]

After a while, Arryn moved so she could put her head under his chin again. She kissed his collarbone lightly as she settled down, still holding his hand in both of hers.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled as he rubbed the back of Arryn's neck. "I like it when you hold my hand like that." He leaned down to kiss her cheek. "Hold it as long as you like."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn chuckled a bit. "Don't say that, I may never let go."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Good. I don't want you to.", Dayn said as he kissed Arryn again.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled as she snuggled closer to him, holding his hand tightly to her chest. Mine. After a bit she moved up on her forearms and put her hand on his forehead before laying against him and put her head under his chin again.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn moved with Arrn, adjusting to her so that they both could be comfortable before snuggling up against her again. He loved it when she was in a cuddly mood. "Ah, you let go of my hand."

 

[Dragongal]

"Just checking if you had a fever," she said. "And I only moved one hand for a few seconds."

 

[BookWyrm]

Now Dayn was curious. "Why would you need to check for a fever? I'm not showing symptoms am I?"

 

[Dragongal]

"Nah. You're just warm. Probably from cuddling so much. I didn't want to use my magic to check. You're fine." Arryn quickly kissed his collarbone just to mess with him.

 

[BookWyrm]

"You had me worried for a second.", Dayn said as Arryn kissed along his collarbone. He couldn't help but smile and enjoy the feeling. "Last thing I need is to get sick. You wouldn't cuddle with me then, and I'd be all alone and cold and sleeping by myself."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn nuzzled against his cheek reassuringly before returning to kissing along his collarbone, noting his smile. "Actually, I'm resistant to disease. So I'd still cuddle you, and take care of you."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn shivered as Arryn kissed him. As he enjoyed the attention he mulled over what Arryn had said. "I find that reassuring, but I also kind of feel bad about that in a way. I love the fact that you are resistant to disease, but that also means I'm just normal, and vulnerable."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn chuckled. "Said the Thaumaturgist."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn chuckled himself at the comment. "We still have no idea what all that gives me the ability to do, but I still don't think that it includes being immune to the sniffles or a fever."

 

[Dragongal]

"I'm just saying love, you're not vulnerable. You're not normal either. And it's not like it doesn't come without a price. When I do get sick, it's bad. And if I burn too much mana, my immune system is lowered. Everything comes with a price."

 

[BookWyrm]

"I didn't mean it as a woe is me kind of thing dear, though you are right. Besides, I think lycanthropy has been doing some good for me as well. But, then again, I don't want too many good cards stacked in my favor. Its like you said, everything comes with a price." Dayn cupped Arryn's face in his hands before leaning in to kiss her. "I'm not worried though. If you ever get sick I'll be here. Always."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn returned the kiss slowly, then smiled. "Well, I'm glad of that. And, love, I think you paid your prices early."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Why do you say that?", Dayn asked as he started to rub his hand against Arryn's neck.

 

[Dragongal]

"Well, you had a nice childhood, but, you know, with Kara and all that, I think you've earned a couple of breaks, dearest." Deep down, Arryn had been scared to mention Kara, not wanting to ruin Dayn's mood - she couldn't even enjoy his work on her neck until she could know how he'd respond.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn nodded as he thought over Arryn's words. "I hadn't thought about it that way to be honest." He smiled at Arryn before nuzzling against her cheek again. "Did I tell you that she is seeing someone? A member of the guard, specifically someone working with your Da."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled, glad to see he wasn't upset. "You didn't tell me that! I never thought people would court in the afterlife, but I'm glad for her!" Now, how could she get Dayn to rub her neck again?
