Note to self: rain was awful when one did not have means to keep dry on hand.
The mage was grumbling about something or other concerning the nature of terrible luck and how water coming from nowhere on what was supposed to be a clear and lovely day should be illegal when he flung a drenched coat and equally drenched shirt off to some corner of his little hovel to be forgotten about until later. Or whenever he felt like dealing with the mess of drying feathers. Whichever.
He stretched a bit, the marred skin of his back rippling with the effort before his fingers hooked into the waistline of his trousers and smalls. He didn’t bother with his surroundings, he was sure he wasn’t supposed to receive visitors today, so Anders shucked off the bottoms and proceeded to get started on a proper fire to warm up by.
He had considered himself lucky when he had taken shelter before the rain could come out in its fullest. Granted, he could’ve done it any place else then here but... He needed the mage’s help to begin with. It wasn’t in his power to do which was needed. Nor would he further endanger his own survival for the sake of t h a t ... But as luck would have it... Though he had escaped the rain, he had found the mage’s quarters empty.
And knowing not what else to do, the albino simply decided to remain, tenderly touching a healing cut upon his jawbone as he gazed to the side. Minutes seemed to c r a w l on by and he thought he would’ve died of boredom.... Surely, he would not be cross if anything exciting would’ve happened right here and now...
And as he would have it...
A door slammed open and clothes were leisurely tossed aside whilst the assassin remained as quiet as could be from his little spot, blinking once at the sight of the mage.
Before his eyebrows slowly rose as he found his eyes traveling down momentarily to take in the other’s form, then back up to his face. “ Had I known you to be so eager, I would’ve ensured creating a m o o d. “ drawled the red-eyed, a smirk playing at his lips.
“ Do forgive the intrusion, Anders. “
