Sebastian is silent. He's trying to find the right words to tell Vanth without it cutting too deep. Unfortunately, Sebastian has never really been one to mince his words. He doesn't think he'll start now, and with Vanth already suspecting something?
This is just like that time,
He says.
Sebastian exhales a soft sigh. He leans his head back while Vanth tends to his wounds. How many times has it been? Where Sebastian was injured at this level, and Vanth was not?
"Vanth, I may have kept something from you," he begins. Golden eyes lower to meet those red ones.
He has some explaining to do, doesn't he?
"The seraph's attack was not for naught, and---"
He pauses and then says,
"Someone is approaching." With that, he gently pushed Vanth away, not wanting him to tend to the injuries at this moment. He's still weakened. Yet, he pushes himself out of the coffin, grabs his robe, and wraps it around his body, covering his naked form.
"You've ignored his call for too long. We should greet him before his worry hits overdrive." With a hand, he presses it against Vanth's back and places a kiss on top of his forehead.
Though the movement is slow, he still manages to look elegantly tall. As if he isn't compromised by holy power.
