Relaxation and Realizations
(( Mentions: @the-heartseeker ))
The Siren’s Lament sat still in the Swamp of Sorrows. Since his return from killing Verhen, and subsequent awakening aboard his vessel, Xyveth and Ilyaeri had been spending a great deal of time together, something that the Captain was truly grateful for. She had helped him recover from his injuries, assist him with some paperwork, and overall just enjoy his company. During this time, they had discussed their thoughts on the war, which both of them truly cared nothing for.
As he awoke from his slumber, a smile crept to his face as he glanced down to his sleeping treasure. Her head was resting upon his chest, and she was wearing one of his shirts, obviously stolen during her time aboard the ship. Xyveth couldn’t wipe away the grin, but he decided he had to get up, but had no desire to awaken Ily, at least not yet. He slowly shimmied out from beneath her, only to gracefully catch her head and place a pillow beneath it so she would continue to slumber. He leaned down and kissed her forehead, before making his leave from the bedroom, heading to the kitchen.
As he walked, Xyveth couldn’t help but think of his crew. It had been sometime since he had gotten a report from Avery, and he knew Shinlao and Valistiri were still en route to Zandalar. He had hoped they were all safe. Upon reaching the kitchen, he walked over and grabbed a small glass, poured himself a glass of whiskey, downed it in one gulp, and got to work on his intentions.
As the Captain cooked, his mind wandered even more, but this time, to much happier thoughts. Those of his darling treasure. The first day they met, the time they spent together at the fountain in Silvermoon, their first date aboard the Siren, and many many other memories. The Captain had gotten so distracted by his thoughts, the pan of food he was cooking on had burst into flames! His attention returned to the outside world rather quickly, muttering a curse beneath his breath, quickly extinguishing the flames. “Well, time t’start again…” he murmured to himself, quickly gathering up what he needed.
As he finished his cooking and placing it on the cart he kept in the kitchen, the Captain couldn’t help but realize he was nervous. Ilyaeri had done so much for him recently, and he wished to return the favor. She had stood by his side when many others he knew would’ve just up and abandoned him. His feelings for her had only grown, hell the Captain hadn’t felt this strongly for someone in quite sometime, and as much as he wished to tell Ilyaeri how he felt, the thought of doing so terrified him. He glanced down at the spread he had made for breakfast, and pushed the cart back to the bedroom.
As he entered the bedroom, he smiled upon seeing Ilyaeri still sound asleep. He pushed the cart beside the bed, and leaned down to kiss her forehead once more.
“Good mornin’ Ily.” He whispered, only for the woman’s eyes to slowly flutter open.
“Good morning my dear Captain.” She replied, stifling a yawn as she looked up at him with a smile. “What smells so goo…” she asked, only for her eyes to set upon the food that sat inside the room.
“X-Xy...what is all this?” She asked, almost at a loss for words.
The Captain simply smiled at her, helping her into a sit, only to take a seat beside her and take one of her hands in his own. “Ily, ye have done so much t’help me out in recent times. Not just physically wit’ patching me up anytime I get hurt, but helping me open up wit’ my feelings. You’ve reminded me what it’s like t’truly care for another, and I wanted t’show ye how much I care for you. I know it’s just breakfast and all, but this is only the beginning.” He replied, bringing his gaze to meet her own.
Ilyaeri sat there silently for a moment, listening to the Captain speak. Once she was done, she pulled him close and happily pressed her lips against his own, her free arm wrapping around him.
Xyveth happily accepted the kiss, closing his eyes and giving her hand a gentle squeeze. After a few moments he’d break the kiss, resting his forehead against her own.
“Let’s eat luv’, and then I can show you t’rest o’ me surprises.” He whispered, only for Ily to smile up at him and nod her head.
“Sounds like a plan to me, my dear Captain.”
pssssssss: repainting the ceiling every few weeks with new constellation patterns and teaching her to navigate via the stars!
OMG
Because she can’t see the whole sky from her window
So he does that for her.
And he shows her constellations from all the worlds he can find information about.
And when she’s free but hasn’t seen him in a long time, she looks at the stars and remembers him and what he taught her and a few tears escape because God help her, it’s beautiful to see them all in real life but it’s not the same without her papa there.
