Panic is loud music that drowns the mind. Paranoia whispers and lurks.

But love? Love is a soft sound that’s easy to dance to.

Of course no matter the emotions being felt, Hoxton and Wolf still need to shave. Personal hygiene is still important, no matter any feelings discovered along the way.

So I did some WolfHox, I swear it’s soft

Once again love to thank @existentialcrisisetcetera for beta’ing this for me ^u^

Kisses are not always romantic. Sometimes they meant to welcome, to honor, or to deal-make.

And sometimes they are a greetings with hidden meaning.

A reference to a time long gone, an unsaid commitment, and the unique understanding that came with it.

Big thanks to @commence-screaming for beta’ing

Also @existentialcrisisetcetera for letting me use their cat Pablo, it’ll make sense if you read the fic.
