𝙻𝙴𝚃𝚃𝙴𝚁𝚂 . unprompted interactions
@karsussfolly: The kiss is fleeting, but his palm remains cupping her cheek even as he pulls away, thumb stroking over the soft flesh affectionately. Even as his heart feels like it's about to escape his chest and that hungry cavern desperate for magic within him flares within him, made unstable by even the most mundane of emotions, his biggest concern is of course being a gentleman. Thumb catching on Babette's lower lip, Gale parts them slightly. "Are you sure you want to do this, dear?"
She was, in fact, not sure. Yet, every fiber of her being was pulled towards the wizard. He was not innocent, for he clearly made no effort to stop the subtle touches, only dragging her deeper in this prudish hole of whatever that moment had to offer. Intrigue flooded Babette's mind, only broken periodically by waves of uncertainty.
Was this okay ? Was it too early ? When is it too early & when would it be alright ?
They just kissed.
❝ Would you be . . . okay with it ? ❞ Not the answer Gale was looking for, that much she was certain of. doe-eyed look ascended ; lips touch skin in what could count as a kiss at his digit while it rested against them — parting further, tentatively, as to welcome his thumb in. Words did her no favor, perhaps actions would.
