Azil Aumson rode on Karadur’s left hand. He was a reserved, dark-haired man, slender, of no notable comeliness, except for the grace and sensitivity of his long, musician’s fingers, and the resonant beauty of his voice.

compiling these little tidbits in the text where they mirror each other
I love how in spite of having very different demeanors, with Azil being far more reserved & soft-spoken to Karadur's intense and severe aura, there remains this underlying thread between them in their shared speech patterns/expressions that reflects so many years of the two being friends/lovers 💕
Azil is truly the perfect uke type character - vulnerable, soft-spoken, tragic, touch-starved, sensitive, a yearner, etc.
it's like he was made in a lab for the specific purpose of being man-handled and roughed up by Karadur's big, strong seme hands
