"Tell me that I am yours." The very notion of effortlessly breathed words would have curdled Solas' blood only years prior; he was a feral beast, beholden and belonging to none but his own whim. Yet now, spirit and body alike entangled in morning embrace, and fingers tracing incomprehensible designs into the edges of Dorian's jaw, they spurred only swells of love far from his past self's grasp.

Though as a symphony, the energy of their music dwindled with the coming of the sun as it lazily peeked through loose hung curtains on a high window, casting shadows of misshapen leaves on bare skins of bronze and cream. Now they had lain in wistful carelessness, ensnared in each others tangled limbs as ragged breaths slowed in rhythm. Dorian lay in a mass of curls, head tilting slightly upward on his pillow as lids fluttered to a close in an act of pure bliss.
Nearly chest to chest, they had remained motionless for what felt like hours, the now lingering touch of Solas’s fingertips across his jaw was the only movement produced besides the subtle rise and fall of collective breathing. It was at the sound of restful breathed words that Dorian’s own inhale had seemed to take pause. For he had grown accustomed to foul and angry laced comments, a shield of witty retorts to combat any situation when needed. Though he had melted at such genuine kind words that he could only respond with silence. Though caramel colored arms wrapped in a gentle squeeze around Sola’s waist, pressing flesh to flesh in a gesture of mute compliance.
