re: this post
okay okay okay i’m gonna use this as a shameless opportunity to kick off something i haven’t done since my pacific rim days but to my vague memory it was pretty good for my motivation and also fed people’s curiosity
which is to say. here’s a snippet
“Solas. Did you ever have sex, in this—” she jabs a finger against his ribs, “—body?”
His heartbeat climbs into his throat and chokes him. His thoughts reel through a dance he knows all too well: how much can he admit, how much has he already given away? Will silence feed suspicion more than honesty, more than half-truths?
“That’s a no, then?”
“It depends on one’s definition of ‘this body’,” he scrambles. “Your body when you were a child, or even a young adult, would hardly count now—”
Saar sighs, and it startles him into silence for how fond it is. Her marked hand gently cups the side of his face, thumb resting on the bow of bone below his eye, and she rests her forehead against his.
“Kadan,” she murmurs. “I’m not trying to embarrass you, I just want to know you.”
Oh, no.
