He wiggles free of Lennon's embrace, but only so he can turn and wrap his arms around him instead. There was just something about it. A feeling. It was as if he was clinging to him, afraid that he might somehow lose him. Daeshim wants to hold him instead, make him feel safe and treasured. He can't do everything for him, but he can do that much.
"You do, I know it. You are my Treasure, my friend, and my family. I want you to know this, so that you know that you never have to apologize to me ever again. There is no need."
Lennon doesn't fight Daeshim when he moves and he lets himself be wrapped up in the other's arms and it's safe and good. He feels some of the knotted tension in his chest start to relax from something as simple as that. Daeshim knowing when he needs to hear he's loved and knowing when he needs to be held even before Lennon had realized it.
His words make his heart swell and he tilts his head to nose at the other's cheek.
"Family..." he can't help but get a little stuck on that word. He curls into the other more, soaking in everything about daeshim.
"I didn't want to upset you is all... you sounded like you were."
maybe he's still a bit antsy from some of the stuff that happened when they were both under the effects of Nippon.
"Family." He repeats that word, stronger than before. "Even before we make our own." He's already a part of it, even before the first of many babies. The Fae tips his head back a little, so that he can rest his chin on the top of Lennon's head.
"My Unseelie blood is quick to rise sometimes. It happens because I love you. Happens because you are mine and because you're so precious to me. Don't let it frighten you."
Lennon closes his eyes and there's a small smile. Honestly, he'd never thought he'd have a family again and Daeshim had given him hope for one and now... he realizes he really does already have a family again and they'll make it bigger. He loves his fae so much, he's given him the most important things he has in his life.
"I...wasn't afraid," Lennon says quietly. It's only scared him once. "Your unseelie blood is a part of you too and I love all of you, all of you is mine." Just like all of him is Daeshim's.
"My Seelie blood isn't much better." He admits softly. It's probably where most of his selfishness comes from. The Seelie Court believes itself to be superior, especially over humans.
"You can tell me..." Lennon says softly. "I just meant you're mine and whatever it means ... isn't going to change that." Because he realizes how it might have sounded... so just in case...
"They're not worlds that I belong in, but..." He pauses, getting comfortable against him. "You know the sting of it. It is much like it was with your family. But they're wrong, all of them. And their loss is my gain."
Treasures are often found, after all. Daeshim has found his. The fae giggles, feeling even warmer at his compliment.
Lennon is quiet as the other explains at least a little and he feels a chord of familiarity and he is glad they’re pressed close together, warm, secure.
"Yes you do! I feel quite loved." It's perhaps the one thing that Daeshim has done right. He's never pressured Lennon for the words. He sees the love in his actions and in his eyes, feels it in his kisses and touches.
"And I love you too, my treasure. Father of Lain, Lark and Lavender!"
"Three..." Lennon still is overwhelmed at the idea of one but he knows how Daeshim is with numbers and he's being reminded that they definitely will have more than one. "You already named them?"
Lennon exhales and he tries to push down the panic at the idea that they might come more than one at a time. He doesn't want to worry Daeshim or make him think that he's having second thoughts because he's not. He's just... a little stressed and overwhelmed at the idea too. He's already worried he won't be a good enough parent for one child.
"I don't know..." he shakes his head and then smiles. "I like those names."

Daeshim is prepared to protect their child, not just from danger, but from the other fae who will see it as the most curious thing ever.

Because seven is even better but nine is best! Daeshim tilts his head, because that's not entirely the case, but he's not sure how to explain it.
"Mm...for now. They like your name, so I thought L names might suit them. Why, is there a letter that you like best?"
