[ COMFORT ]

Its the gentleness of the touch that breaks him. That warm, steady weight that means so much coming from Than. Without words Than was telling him that he was there, that he kmew what was going on, and that he was there to support Arawn. Arawn sagged under it.

"I don't know how to do this," he whispered. "I don't know how to do any of this on my own."

He put his own hand over Than's, warm, calloused hands over the death god's cold one, leaning into the touch. "I love you."

At least he knew that with certainty.

It was sunset. The last rays of daylight where sinking rosy-fingered over the water. And Arawn was sitting on a cliffside next to his sister trying not to think about how fucking annoying it will be to tredge back to their camp in the dark.

"Maybe we should just camp here," he stretches out, lying against the rock with a sigh. "It's a good night for it. Not too cold. Plus I'm very good at making fire."

@saintsdawn

#i just got hit with a wave of affection for Arawn and Flo so you're getting a starter out of it

[celestialdetected]

Arawn's parents used to call him sunshine. It was a joke because he was quite a serious child growing up. It fits now, but not in the way his parents were expecting.

#arawn; glowing #arawn; yeah that tracks #a boy in flames // musings

[celestialdetected]

what if this doesn't end well?

"Then it ends horribly and we can bitch and moan at each other until the day grows long." Arawn shrugs, trying to appear more confident than he actually is. There is a very real possibility that this goes wrong, and they both end up dead because of it.

And Arawn has....mixed feelings about that outcome. Death is, not preferable...probably.

"But, on the bright side, if this goes well we probably won't have to do anything like it again?"

❛ there’s no place i’d rather be than by your side. ❜

"Even through this?" Arawn gestures to the carnage around them, the blood of the fiends they slain starting to mingle with the mud and smelling truly foul in the way only a battlefield can. "I truly do not know what I have done to deserve such loyalty."

PROMPTS FOR CURIOUS HYPOTHETICALS *  assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary

do you think you would have liked me if we met back then?

if i asked you to marry me... right now... what would you say?

could you ever imagine us together?

what if we're not meant to survive this?

if you found out you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do?

what if your life went differently? where do you think you'd be?

i bet we would have been best friends as kids.

could you imagine a world like that?

would you say yes if i asked you on a date?

what if only one of us gets out?

i wish we'd dated sooner.

what if they don't like me?

what superpower would you choose, if you had to pick one?

i wonder what that would be like.

i bet we'd be married by now, if things had gone differently.

i'll never stop considering the "what-ifs."

have you ever pictured us as a couple?

what does your perfect future look like?

do you think you might see me as more than a friend?

ever thought about the future?

what if we're not meant to be together?

but what if there's only one bed? what then?

if we get through this, what's the first thing we should do?

where do you see yourself in ten years?

if a higher power exists... i wonder what they think of us.

maybe we could try going on a date. see what happens.

i've always wondered if you'd ever look my way.

what words would [name] use to describe you?

what would be your strategy for an apocalypse?

could you ever see me as something more?

if we ever make it out of here, where will we go?

what do you think lies ahead?

what if i'm not meant to do this?

if we get trapped, we need to come up with a plan.

have you ever wondered what our kids would look like?

is there more to life than this?

do you ever wish we'd met each other sooner?

i always wonder what would have happened.

if you could ask your future self one question, what would it be?

if you could snap your fingers right now and be anywhere you want, where would you pick?

do you think we have any chance of surviving this?

i'm trying to picture a world where we get through this in one piece.

what if this doesn't end well?

what if we get stuck there?

if a genie gave you three wishes, what would you ask for?

what if everyone stares at me?

what if i'm not cut out for this?

Arawn wasn't sure why His Highness, Prince Serendipity, something in line, some other title, blah blah blah -hadn't just cut and run yet. It had taken Arawn less than a week to realize that no matter how well the royal family was paying, he was not bringing the prince home.

And Ren had to know that. Arawn had completely changed their route, and had started heading towards home. Towards Rhiannon and that ramshackle little apartment, he loved so much.

So why wasn't the prince gone? Arawn had even packed him rations, water, and a bedroll, he'd left it out in a very conspicuous place, ready for the prince to grab it and run.

And yet, when he woke up the next morning the prince was still there.

"I need to reup our supplies, I'm going to head into this general store," he jabbed a thumb at the shop in question. "You can wait out here with the horses." And if a horse and a prince were missing when he got back, hey, that was one problem solved.

Arawn was not used to dealing with celebrity clients. Minor politicians, sure, especially when he had been hung up on revenge, before Rhiannon and before prison. But celebrities? Never. If celebrities wanted a Private Investigator they found someone more discreet then Arawn. But here a celebrity was, or the daughter of one. Standing in his dingy office with the peeling paint and the drawings of his daughter tacked to the wall.

"May I help you ma'am?" he asked, scrabbling for his manners.

@amoreanth liked for a starter

#i hope this is ok!! #amoreanth

Arawn is so proud of his daughter but so terrified when Rhiannon tells him she's going to become an adventurer

Loras is smiling, that sly, mischievous smile that he gets when he's done something exceptionally clever and gotten away with it. Gods, Arawn loves that smile. He never gets tired of seeing it.

As they are seated Arawn watches Loras's expression go from amused, to puzzled. Arawn thanks the waiter, and thanks him as they bring a bottle of wine; red, as vintage as Arawn could afford.

"Who, me?" he pretends to be affronted. "I've never done anything wrong in my life." He reaches across the table and covers Loras's hand with his. "Really, I just wanted to have a nice night with you, no buttering necessary."

He'll save the ring for after dessert.

would he like to replace his worn out shoes or try to cobble them back together? why, a few years ago ( few hundred years ago for arawn ), LORAS would've been insulted by the question. but they were working with a much smaller budget now than back in his glory days of playing the mover and shaker of intercontinental politics ...

“ don't worry about it, ” he hummed, hugging arawn's arm closer to his chest. “ i can repair them myself. ” the mage in hiding glanced at his lover with a sly smirk on his lips. even if he must hide his magic from the paranoid public of vasselheim, it didn't mean loras have neglected his craft in the privacy of their own home. he might not practice the same mending spell like the mages of this era, but rewind/unwind worked functionally the same.

he wouldn't boast too much while they were out in public, for both his own and arawn's sake. should a respected cleric of sarenrae be discovered harboring a chronomancer from the age of arcanum ... the dawn marshals will shut down the whole city. loras thought with amusement as they approached the restaurant.

“ you really did plan this, didn't you? ” the elf quirked a brow over the unmasked side of his face at how quickly they got led in, seated at the perfect spot with warm light and beautiful table arrangement. “ if i didn't know any better, i would've thought you did something wrong and are trying to butter me up before telling me what it is. ”
