"I am. I feel...very good, actually. A little more in control of my
faculties, now, for that matter. It must be the steadying influence of your
blood," he teases.
But he does settle down close to him again and pull the blankets up over
them. "And now I have to sleep it off with no cookies or juice," he
grumbles playfully.
"Good." Though he's fairly certain he would have known if it was way before
now. "Just seemed - I don't know. Right? The same thing like when you
started saying my name."
"I like saying your name," he murmurs. "It...sets you apart from everyone
else. Rosita calls me things in her other language which I think are
sometimes insults, but she means them nicely."
"I don't think you should. I think what you have is perfect," he admits and rests his forehead against his shoulder. "Alright, I'm going to sleep. Really. Think you can rest?"

"I can go and steal some cookies for you if you want, love."

Astarion's calming for him. Grounding.

He snuggles in closer.

"It's not as if I can tan, Jacob. It's only by an accident of fate that I don't catch fire in sunlight."
no subject
Date: 2025-03-31 05:28 pm (UTC)He doesn't have to open his eyes to hear that pout in his voice. He snickers.
"You won't look good with a tan, baby. Besides, I like your ass just the way it is."

"You've been calling me that more often lately."

no subject
Date: 2025-03-31 07:35 pm (UTC)"Yes, it's alright. It's...not something that gets used back home, really, so there's nothing....attached to it."
No unpleasant emotional baggage.

Which was more intimate than he anticipated.

no subject
Date: 2025-03-31 08:34 pm (UTC)"Spanish," he supplies with a bright laugh. "But yeah, they probably are. Rosita's entire personality can be summed up the same way."
Which Jacob also loves.

Date: 2025-03-31 08:49 pm (UTC)"I've decided on a name for her in Elven and it's not even insulting. Maybe I should try harder."
He definitely won't.

no subject
Date: 2025-04-01 09:25 am (UTC)"I think so," he murmurs. Even if he can't, he's more than happy to just loll about for a while and watch Jacob sleeping.
