Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

"I can do that," Arryn said once they separated. "Anything specific you want to talk about?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"Anything that suits your fancy. I just want to be near you." Dayn rearranged himself to a comfortable position so that they could talk and cuddle at the same time. "At least until we get hungry or have to leave."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn cuddled up to Dayn after he adjusted. "Well, how about we talk about Riverbend? When we get there, are we staying in the inn?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn thought over the city and homes for a few moments as he played in Arryn's hair. "We could either stay there or at my families manor. If you want we could look at investing in a small home in the river district. Speaking of, I had an idea I wanted to talk to you about. Now that I've got shares from the Fighter's Guild coming in I have been thinking about your idea about buying a small home in multiple cities. What I was thinking was we could open up the homes to Matthias and Kalie and Theodas. I trust those three, and if they are traveling it would mean having a safe place to stay, which was the idea all along. What do you think?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and nodded a bit. "I think it's a wonderful idea." Arryn paused. "How do you think your family will react to our marriage?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"I don't foresee them being bothered by it. Technically you are a form of nobility because of your father, so if they really wanted to get picky I'll just tell them that you are from an old Northern family and nobility is looked at differently in the North."

 

[Dragongal]

"Not what I meant. Do you think they'll be upset that there was no big ceremony?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"Oh." Dayn looked rather blank for a moment before shrugging. "I don't know. Not that I give a damn if they do. We wanted a small ceremony and we had work in need of doing. They can't really complain too much."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn grinned and nuzzled against his neck. "Good." "Want to nap a bit, then we can go out and pick up more medical supplies? I've basically run out last night."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Mm, a nap sounds amazing, especially with good company." Dayn rolled onto his back before tugging on Arryn. "Come on, I'm cold without you."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn moved so her head laid on her chest,t hen just for fun, started lowering her temperature. He had made the temperature comment first.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn pulled back as he pushed Arryn away slightly, the sudden cold being rather unexpected and unwanted. "You know what I meant.", he said as he smiled.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn grinned and let her temperature warm up to normal again before cuddling up to him. She pouted a bit as she laid her head into the crook of his neck. "Don't like me with my new magic?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"I love you just the same as I always have. It's just a little different. Besides, you know I'm not nearly as cold tolerant as you are." Dayn brushed his fingers along Arryn's neck and along her jaw as he nuzzled against her nose. "I guess I'll have to learn."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered a bit and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "You're not bad for a Southerner. I think the whole issue with me getting my cold magic helped you with that some."

 

[BookWyrm]

"I know I miss how you would snuggle against me when I had my pyromancy." Dayn took advantage of the shivering to keep on rubbing her neck. "It was my favorite part of that magic."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shifted around a bit to let him at her neck more. "Well it was the only way I could warm up for a while."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn pulled Arryn's hair up before laying it over to the opposite side and then resumed rubbing along her neck. "I know. Even then, though, it felt good to have you so close."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn paused and wrapped her arms around his neck before cuddling up as close as she could to him, like she had on the cold nights when he was her only source of warmth.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn blinked for a couple of seconds before embracing Arryn and laying his head against her shoulder with a contented sigh. "I've missed this. Thank you."

 

[Dragongal]

"You're welcome, mo chroi." Arryn traced a few kissed up his neck before nuzzling against him again.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn leaned his head back before his eyes snapped open to a chorus of laughter. "Not that I don't appreciate all of this, but, we seem to have forgotten about that nap."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn chuckled and gave his neck a few more kisses. "Whoops."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn slid both hands across to the back of Arryn's neck before slowly tracing down the length of her spine as he kissed her. "Perfectly okay hon. We wanted to cuddle anyway, right?"

 

[Dragongal]

"Right." Arryn closed her eyes as she shivered and pulled him in for another slow kiss.
