īŧ he lets sasuke move, helps him with it and is gratified when he doesn't try to put any significant distance between them. one hand falls to the boy's wrist and he strokes his thumb against it, a little see-saw of perpetual motion. he's patient, waiting for the words to come. sasuke has always conquered himself before, and cy's in no hurry to drag it out of him now. this, too, is progress.
when he does take that step, cy makes a soft hm of noise, and then lets his focus capture that point of contact between them a long moment.
at length himself — īŧ
I can see how it would feel that way.
īŧ he leans in, butts his head against sasuke's like an overly affectionate cat. it's here, lingering close like the kiss of sweet perfume, that he speaks again — īŧ
It's not that it wouldn't matter. It's that I can separate my own feelings for you from the desire for you to have the love you deserve in life. I would rather see you beloved of a thousand other souls than desperate and lonely in any universe. But I do recognize that there's an element there of me ignoring your own agency, too, so you're not wrong to feel how you did about what I said. It just hurts me to think of you being alone.
īŧ that nearness affords him the opportunity to graze his teeth against sasuke's collarbone. īŧ
But since we're talking in theoreticals — if it was up to me, I'd have you across every universe and in every time. And I'd love you if you were a worm. īŧ that's said, suffused with playfulness. īŧ Earth joke. Go with it.
[It's too natural for him to fixate. Cy's words only prove that no one else would treat him this way â would be so loving, so patient, so open-minded. Part of that, Sasuke understands, is the experience Cy wields in the same hand as his identity, because he has been forged by the millennia that have come to pass.
Cy doesn't want him to be lonely; Sasuke would rather be lonely than fill that void. He would have to lose all memory of Cy not to suffer permanently from that separation. He has been altered too deeply. As teeth find a gentle spot on his collar, he leans in, returning the nudge with his own head.]
I'm not alone anymore. [Not right now, here.] You changed that.
[The comment on him being a worm earns â a soft, huffed laugh, withdrawing slightly just to peer at Cy dubiously.]
It isn't necessarily a theoretical. I have an ability, though I haven't been able to access it in these dimensions for obvious reasons. But it allows me to travel between places. So, [his hand turns over, laying atop Cy's] if you end up somewhere else, I'll find a way to follow you.
īŧ there's a breath of laughter, and then cy leans in to kiss him with an aggressive sort of playfulness, bending him backwards like someone chasing a cat that isn't quite convinced it wants to be petted but isn't actively trying to escape. īŧ
I really had to untangle my brain there for a sec, because I absolutely thought you meant being a worm wasn't a theoretical.
[Just for the sake of it, he puts on a show of resistance â craning away without any intent to actually escape the kiss, or the arms that hold him. It is a playfulness that still often surprises him, perhaps more so for how easy it is to return.]
You're ridiculous.
[Yet his face is warm, and there is an undeniable softness to the words on the hinge of that affectionate declaration. I love you. He could hear it for the rest of his life and it would never become tired.]
Oh yeah? And yet you're still here, so what does that make you?
īŧ cy rubs their noses together with an aggressively playful motion, and then he hooks his hands under sasuke's thighs, pulling him back into the ease of his embrace. īŧ
C'mon, sweetheart. The collar ain't properly christened until I paint your guts while you moan like a wanton whore.
īŧ he nips at the boy's jaw, one hand exploring his chest, rolling a nipple between thumb and forefinger. īŧ
If you can walk in a straight line tomorrow it'll be a personal failing of mine, actually, so let's get a head start to spare my ego.
