Kiss. "I love you. Fuck, this is nice--I still want you to fuck me very badly but--mm, like this it's a good wanting, I want you but the lack doesn't hurt--love the way you touch me, love the way you kiss me--"

Well in that case more kissing and more touching seems like a good plan.

Then he can have more of that squeaky noise he liked so much.

Good! It's such a good noise!

"Oh I want you--you're so beautiful--love you--want you to take me from behind, one arm holding you up, one wrapped around my chest, your teeth in my shoulder--"

He shivers slightly at the mention of where she wants his teeth. "What an image. You're glorious, you know that?"

"Mhm~"

Kiss.

"You're so glorious, too, when you're coming--it's amazing--fuck, would it cross the line if I licked your hand clean after--"

His breath catches. "Oh I love you."

"I love you is that a no?"

"I'll - have to think about it."

(He'll be thinking about it, all right.)

"Mmkay--love you--oh--" she kisses him.

Kiss. So much kiss.

Kiss kiss so much kiss and then she makes some more of that squeaky noise while coming.

It is such a good noise!!!

Would she like snuggles because she is getting snuggles.

Fortunately she would love snuggles! Snuggles!!!

Mmmmmmmm she is so good.

"I love you."

"I love you too." Snuggle.

How does snuggles and kisses and magic sound for the day? Because Elodea really likes the idea.

Snuggles and kisses and magic sounds amazing.

(He is barely getting anywhere on this spell design problem, but at least it's the kind of barely getting anywhere that isn't tedious and horrible.)

Excellent.

(Elodea has not gotten much of anywhere with finding plane shift, but not for lack of progress at cryptography; she has been making good progress at deciphering the spellbooks.)

He cuddles her and picks at the knot of how magic conceptualizes immortality, and a little before sundown he kisses her forehead and says, "I should go."

...She sighs. "Yeah. Enjoy."
