[ It doesn't take long for him to arrive, eyepatch firmly in place, one of Alistair's shirts loose about his shoulders. He'd been crossing the courtyard and had looked up to the battlements and-
He's made but the one promise, to not until Nari finished her staff but-
Something to ground him would put it from his mind. So he called. His smile is strained and present when he knocks. ]
[Cyril goes to answer the door for Taas, though he does let Taas know about the knock as he moves. Despite the fact that he's with Taas and one might expect him to look thoroughly ravished, he only has a part of his hair standing up as he was lying on it. It seems they've been actually sleeping together rather than anything else.
He smiles when he sees Zevran and welcomes him in. He doesn't ask how Zevran is doing. He wants to be there for Zevran to talk if he needs, but he doesn't want to pry at him.]
Hello.
Come on, let's get into bed. It's too cold to be standing around.
[Taas has moved to the middle of the bed roll, leaving enough space for two elves if they cuddled up close on each side. It seemed like it would be a win-win for them both, after all.]
Hello, kadan.
[He gives one side of him a little pat - the side that would mean Zevran could look up easily without having to turn away from his blind spot.]
[ It's only a endearment. It doesn't mean anything. It does not have to mean anything. As long as he remembers that, he doesn't need to think about what Taas said.
He slips in and squeezes Cy's wrist, curling up against Taas' side without further comment. ]
[Cyril looks a little concerned as considers that.]
Do you need some more space? [Since they are all pressed together he worries that the issue is that Zev needs more personal space. They can try to rearrange the sleeping arrangement if needed.]
[Cyril honestly would hate if someone was pestering him to do such a thing, so he'd never do that to someone else. He considers offering to tell Alistair to back off, but he's just a kid who happens to sleep with Zevran. He doesn't really have the right to say anything to a man who has been his friend for a decade.
Instead of saying anything he reaches out and strokes Zevran's arm lightly. If touching wasn't the issue then he'd touch and comfort. It's definitely just that too, comforting. He isn't trying to put anything more sensual behind it.]
[Taas reaches and strokes his hand over Zevran's unscarred cheek.]
Scars are damn hot in my opinion, but it's your choice if you want others to see them or not. Ask him to pull down his pants each time he asks you to take the patch off. Maybe he'll get it.
He knows. [ It simply hasn't changed the fact that he feels guilty and makes faces and has feelings at Zevran. ] It is what siblings do, yes? Be overbearing and annoying? Especially younger siblings.
[ He closes his eye, tipping his face into Taas' hand. All that warmth, those rough callouses. Every thing that makes him Taas and marks him entirely unlike those that broke him unspools the tension in Zevran's shoulders. ]
That wouldn't work, I've already seen him naked more times than I can count. Bathing on the road, you stop worrying about modesty. Even sheltered Chantry boys stop caring.
[Cyril understands the statement about siblings. His sibling is Merrick, after all.
It's really strange the way he feels watching Taas touch Zevran like that. It's warm and comforting and makes his chest feel like it's too small for his heart.
After a moment, he moves the hand holding Zevran's hand so he can kiss Zevran's fingers.]
Is there anything that annoys him? The point isn't to actually do it just as to use it for reference so he'll back off. Threaten to do that if he keeps asking.
Mm. You've been friends for some time, right? He'll get it eventually.
[This is really comfortable, and the big qunari is smiling softly at the two elves and their casual affection. For all the reasons it should be hot, it's been replaced by something easier than that.
There are some things I can bring up should he persist.
[ This is...strange. Familiar and entirely foreign- it'd been he between the two before and it hadn't been quite so comfortable but-
He pushes the memory from his head, catching Cyril's chin to make him stop with the kissing. He doesn't wish to blush just yet but- the affection is sweet. ]
In the mean time frightening him by spending my nights in more agreeable company feels appropriate.

You can sleep on my chest, if you want. More space.
