He's such an embarrassment. Lelesu rolls her eyes, but doesn't protest, because better this than him *sleeping on top of the fridge*. Honestly. "Fine," she agrees. "But I want a cut."

Lelesu smacks his hand ineffectually - more of a token protest and a warning than anything else. "Behave," she scolds, giving him a glare. That she doesn't immediately zap him and snap about respecting her boundaries is a sign of their friendship. "What's this for?"

It can't be too comfortable for him, sitting on the floor to rest his head in her lap - she knows the pain he suffers on a daily basis. But it warms her chest, that for once she can be in this position - an unexpectedly-frustrating consequence of her height - and she strokes one small hand+

"It's not uncomfortable, is it?" she asks, a hint of worry creeping into her tone. She'd made the stone as smooth as she could, and wide enough not to be constricting, but even magic rock is still rock, and this had definitely been an *experiment*.

Lelesu offers Haurchefant a small but bright smile, rather pleased with her handiwork. "I doubt this was what X'rhun intended when he taught me red magic," she observes wryly, glancing at the verstone shackles that'd done what she's too short to do herself. Yeah, definitely not. +

"Of course," she agrees, reaching up to absently brush his bangs from his face and tuck them behind his ear. "It's too cold to leave the blankets, anyway - I think I might freeze, if I tried."

Fate seems to enjoy making a mockery of her plans, so she has no qualms in humming an agreement, adjusting her glasses on her face. They press a little uncomfortably into her face when laying down, but there's little she can do to avoid that - she'd rather be able to see Haurchefant's face. +

and properly see his face, sobering just a bit, though the smile remains on her face. "I'd like to see it," she says seriously. "Even despite the chill. If it means something to you, I want to share it with you." It's sappy, but she means the words wholeheartedly anyway.

The Reddest Scion @warrioroftwilight.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

"I'll hardly notice the chill if you are there with me," Lelesu says - it makes her feel a little daring, almost, which is ridiculous considering they are literally in the same bed at the moment, but her cheeks heat slightly anyway. She adjusts her position enough that she can look up at him +

Lelesu yawns and leans into the touch, a pleased hum escaping her as she does. While she isn't entirely a *morning* person, she's used to waking early, either for her duties or to travel, and there's a pleasantness in not having to today. "I won't complain," she murmurs sleepily, rubbing +

she asks, after a moment, around a yawn, shifting to rest one hand against his chest. It's soothing to feel the steady rise-and-fall as he breathes. "We could take the chocobos out for a ride, if the skies stay clear."

The Reddest Scion @warrioroftwilight.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

simply rest like this. She knows how hard Haurchefant works himself, even if she suspects he would simply deny that his responsibilities are in any way comparable to hers, and if her presence can in any way bring him some measure of peace... "Do you have many obligations this afternoon?" +

"And who says this isn't resting?" Lelesu asks lightly, the smile on her face soft even though she knows he can't see it. "I'm certainly not the only one of us who needs the rest." She's in no hurry to get up, as comfortable as she is, and not just because she rarely has the chance to +

The Reddest Scion @warrioroftwilight.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

"You say the sweetest things," she murmurs, equally quiet, and tucks her head under Haurchefant's chin, closing her eyes again. "Nothing that can't wait, for once. They may even have gotten tired of asking me to solve all their problems." There's a huff of amusement in the statement -

The tease makes her laugh softly, ducking her head to hide the faint flush on her cheeks - a habit, if not a very helpful one considering the circumstances. The blankets are warm; between that and his presence she could almost forget the biting chill of Ishgardian mornings altogether. +
