[he's quiet for a long moment. it's that thoughtful sort of silence, the kind where daeshim is figuring out something about himself, and then trying just as hard at figuring out how to share it. he's come far, even if he still has far to go.]
I had to ignore it.
[he reaches up to catch lennon's face in his hands. he doesn't have to look at anything but him.]
Fae...aren't good to humans. Don't like them much. I don't want to become something that you don't like.
[ Lennon has to stop what he's doing when the other's hands move to his face. He stares at him. It's hard for him to accept that the other has to ignore it but doesn't he do the same thing with his own issues...? He'd be a hypocrite to call him out on that more. ]
[he needs to work hard. he needs to find a balance between communication and starving out those shadows by ignoring them. he guides lennon's face closer, tiptoeing if he must to press his lips against the human's forehead.]
You are very precious to me. Have I told you this?
Then I'm telling you now. You're my precious human. Wherever there is a you, I will find you.
[he's sure of it. daeshim finishes drying off quickly so that he can take lennon's hand, guiding him back to the bed. he scoots in, and then over, looking up to see if the other will join him.]
[ Lennon smiles again and it... makes him feel warm. Maybe sometimes the way the other used possessive language tended to rub him the wrong way but right now it's good. Daeshim is his... at least a little bit and he's accepting the fact that he is in fact Daeshim's.
One day, he's going to be able to tell Daeshim that he loves him.
he discards the towels he was using as they leave the bathroom and he's pulled along back to the bed. There's not any hesitation before he crawls in with him, pressing close immediately. ]
