[Cyril makes a soft, amused sound and then moves to sit down.] Too bad it was so late...

[nehraachargers]

[He watches him go before following after him, pausing nearby.] Was it?

[samahl]

Hm... [He moves closer to Bull, clearly wanting to lean against him but waiting to see if Bull is okay with that.]

Not giving you that dragon tooth was a huge mistake.

[nehraachargers]

[Bull sits to let him, doesn't pull away. He stays there while they talk. He lets Cyril have that intimacy.]

The tooth you said you'd still give me.

[samahl]

Yes. I would.

I never stopped wanting to give it to you. I thought about it every day when we were still at Skyhold and now time you end up near Kirkwall I think about it.

[nehraachargers]

[Bull smiles and he looks down at his hands. Cyril still has those feelings for him. Would still give him that tooth, still has it. And he's telling him all of this now despite not having it here.

It's...

Wow.]

Guess that means I'll have to pretend you have it right now.

[samahl]

[Cyril curls up against his side, leaning a bit more against him.]

What does that mean?

[nehraachargers]

It means that I never said it was too late. I would have taken you back any time when you were ready. When you weren't scared of what we had.

[samahl]

[He sighs and then closes his eyes.]

I'm sorry.

[nehraachargers]

[Bull shifts to wrap his arm around him, to tug him close against his side.]

I don't need apologies. I'm a tough guy. Hearing you want me makes up for all that.

[samahl]

[Cyril settles against Bull easily, almost melting against him.]

I do want you.

[nehraachargers]

Yeah. I know.

[He reaches down to tilt his chin up. He can't say why but this feels right. So he looks down at him and smiles before closing the distance and kissing him. Even several years later it still feels right.]

[samahl]

[Cyril returns that kiss, settling into the warmth that fills his chest. It feels perfect.]

[nehraachargers]

[It doesn't last long, doesn't have to really. When he pulls back, he finds he's still smiling.]

Hey.

[samahl]

Hm? [Cyril smiles back up at him, wanting to just live in this moment.]

[nehraachargers]

[He chuckles and strokes his cheek with his thumb.]

Welcome back.

[samahl]

[He chuckles and tilts his head into that touch.]

Should I tell you the same thing?

[nehraachargers]

If you want to. I'm fine just listening to you talk about anything really.

[samahl]

I'm going to go get the book I have that discusses the basics of electricity and read it to you just to test that theory.

[He says, but he doesn't move.]

[nehraachargers]

Moving real fast there I see.

[Gotta tease him on that.]

[samahl]

Yes. The idea isn't more compelling than your chest.

[nehraachargers]

Most things aren't. I can agree with that.

[samahl]

Oh, I don't know. I can think of one really big thing that is.

[nehraachargers]

[Alright, he has to chuckle. Then plays dumb.]

Yeah. The horns are damn compelling.

[samahl]

[Cyril makes a soft, amused sound. It's strangely comforting for him to say a stupid flirty thing and for Bull to so easily push it aside by playing dumb. It feels so normal.

It's rare that he feels normal here.]

You do have a pretty good rack.
