[tonight is just like any other night. they're both half-curled or half-sprawled against each other, buried under the blankets and pillows and keeping their arrangement cozy and warm. it's dark out, but it's been like that for a long time. it's also raining, but that's been happening for just as long. it's a sickening, grey weather that hasn't bothered letting up in a while.

that is, when it's not snow. or sleet.

it gets really loud for a minute, some heavy downpour that's a little too thick and likely to coat everything in ice by morning. it bangs on the walls and swings around to patter on the windows, before suddenly--very suspiciously--quieting down.

and then it's silent for a moment. seconds tick by, maybe stretching to a whole minute... before a sudden bright flash and a boom that reverberates through the sky and shakes the world on its way down.

nice weather we're having.]

[that gets a deep-seated chuckle.

He's getting called 'important' to his face now. How different things are here; it makes his head spin a little. Amused and almost a little giddy at the thought. Goodness.

And the rest is just... entirely charming.]

...My, you do have a way with words, don't you?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I can do all sorts of things when I put my mind to it.

[he can't help but be a little smug about it. the whole thing is a breeding ground for ego, on both sides.]

[heresyandlace]

[he's reveling in it. He likes when it's like this--their egos can run wild without turning on each other and butting heads.

With a wicked little grin, he slowly leans forward from his settled place on Robin's chest to sneak a kiss against his mouth]

I believe it.

[he's thinking of a few things in particular, but means it just as much in a broader sense]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[ah, he can't help it. his chest swells with it, and he reaches up to run his fingers through Tek's hair and pull him down for another kiss.

he's more involved this time. it feels good, being adored, having someone that puts value in him. even if it's twisted and cheap. he likes it, and he wants to keep it for a while.]

[heresyandlace]

[it suits him just fine because--at the moment--he feels like being kept. Especially since the links are conditional and won't mean anything at all in the end. It makes the beginning of the night feel better, and that's about all he can be bothered to care about right now.

So he indulges in that kiss before chuckling against it.

He considers pulling himself forward afterward, slinking arms over Robin's shoulders and leering in his face... but opts to rest his head down instead.]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[and then he's close enough to sated and happy that he can hum out a satisfied note. he settles to running his fingers through his hair, thinking and wondering and soaking up all the warmth and comfort around them.]
