Astarion moans right back, burying his face against Jacob's neck, riding
out his orgasm. It's in the final throes of his pleasure that he reaches
his own, coming into Jacob's fist as he pants out cool breaths against his
heated skin.
Jacob all but clings to him in those final moments, not stopping his hand until Astarion is good and spent. He raises his knees, supporting him, and mostly pulling him close to wrap both arms around him.
He has no words now, only this, feeling his heart return to normal.
Astarion all but collapses onto Jacob's chest, pleasantly sore and
exhausted and, yes, interested in cuddling. Fuck it.
It's a pleasant silence that passes between them, warm and soft in the
afterglow, his nerves still buzzing with pleasure. He lightly traces a lazy
figure-eight on Jacob's shoulder with a fingertip.
He toys with the ends of Astarion's hair as he stares up at the ceiling. Content. Warm. And more fucking confused than he's ever been.
"You know, it's a good thing I got my room soundproofed," he laughs, as if just remembering that fact. Mae hasn't needed to be crated in so long that he doesn't actually need it anymore, but it comes in handy.
"Alas. You've outwitted me," Astarion sighs, and gently strokes at the
little pink mark he's left. "But I suppose you have a point. Just for you,
then."
"Mm. Yes, sir," he mutters with a hint of a smile.
Another kiss, another long, but exhausted kiss, and he sits back. The day has been long and fucking confusing, but he is here, he is strangely content, and if he doesn't think too hard, then it should be fine.
"Good," he mutters, curling his arm around him and keeping him close.
He presses a kiss to his forehead, gentle and chaste as he settles in for sleep. It doesn't take him long before his breathing evens, and the nightmares don't come that night.

"And after I was especially loud, just for you. Next time we're using an empty cabin with the door ajar."

His teasing tone doesn't really distract from the blunt honesty of that remark.

"Your mother wanted you to be very pretty and not very bright, I'm assuming."

Any more is unspoken but very loud.
