rabastan !
he was only ever soft for a rare few . he was only ever warm with them too . gentle . caring . emma was one of the lucky few and he couldn’t help but think she took advantage ( something he didn’t quite mind even though he should have ) . the sad bastard who pretended to thrive on hate continued to selfishly allow it , because he was secretly addicted to the adoration . “ i didn’t ask for your opinion , ” he chastised despite the lack of venom in his voice . the connection of her bright eyes and his dark gaze was a conversation in and of itself , speaking volumes in the silence . rabastan lifted his hand and brushed away a single golden strand from her cheek . “ you talk too much , but … ” he lowered his arm and looked down , his jaw clenched , “ you’re not entirely wrong . ” @e-vanaughty
emma !
❛ YET , you’re all the better for it . so i believe some sort of thanks are in order ? ❜ the young girl mused , decidedly ignoring the heightened chill that rolled down the length of her spine as the handsome wizards fingers grazed her cheek gently . it was quite startling ( and admittedly , annoying ) how instantly her body reacted to whatever passing praise he awarded her , even in jest , as evidenced by the clear blush that colored the highest arches of her striking visage .
❛ i yearn for the day you finally admit to yourself that i am undoubtedly ALWAYS right and you should heed my wellmannered suggestions . i merely think you deserve a break , merlin knows i’m in dire need of such a repreive . we are due a far more extensive solace than a meager outting to a pub . ❜ she rattled about , hoping to draw his attention away from her poorly concealed nerves , her thumbs twiddling around her ornate skirt mindlessly . emma had not been around a bar in quite some time and she abhorred the longing she felt for the familiar liquid scorching down her throat , so it wasn’t unheard of for the girl to try and convince on of her only genuine friends to pull her away from a life of debauchery .
