[ he'd complain that that's not a beginner's task, but then again, he does like the challenge, and he'd feel insulted by anything else ]

You know, I'm attached to that book but it isn't exactly a fun tale to retell and translate.

Perhaps not as a whole.... but I digress, a poor choice on my part. I know not what else you have committed to memory.

So I suppose you will simply have to surprise me.

It's fine, I wanted to complain about the request and that was the easiest one to complain about.

[ he leans in to kiss him again, brief and soft ]

Vanya's book will be as good a choice as any. Just, you know. Awkward.

[He brings a hand up to his cheek brushing with the back of his knuckles.]

Or I could simply claim you, though your studies in logistics would be woefully lacking for the evening.

[ the sweet gesture is enough to make his heart melt, but of course the words spark his interest ]

We could combine the two. A reward for everything I get right.

One, you would get everything right to spite me, and don't think for a moment you wouldn't. Secondly, well I feel if I should reward you regardless for the soothing you have brought me.

[Running his thumb along his bottom lip.]

You won't have these sharp teeth and the ability to turn into a bat forever, thus I feel we should utilize them. And what do desire to use your limited gift for?

[ his eyes are immediately drawn to Emet's lips at that, and he hums, thinking about the question ]

I doubt my ability to turn into a bat will come in play here, but perhaps we can put my fangs to good use. Do you have any plans for them?

My creativity does happen mostly on the spur of the moment.

As does mine, but do turn into a bat. I would like to see it even if it outside the current plan for activities.

[ there's a little laugh at that, and to be honest he has been enjoying being a bat. And since he's asking, he'll turn at that, flying over to perch on his shoulder immediately after. When he speaks, Emet will hear his voice directly in his head ]

If you just wanted to see it you should have asked before.

[He will hold out his hand near his shoulder for him to perch on.]

Oh, that is delightful. Hearing your voice like that. And truthfully, it just came to mind.

[ he'll move onto his hand as soon as it's offered ]

It has been a highlight of this game. Along with your company, of course.

[He'll hold him carefully and bring his other hand up to stroke his head and wing softly with a finger.]

I am glad you are getting quite a large amount of enjoyment from this game. I do believe others are as well. 'Tis good to see the cheerful faces.

And you are rather charming as a bat. Though I do find you favorable in any form you wear.

Something else we have in common, then. I do find you favorable in any form as well.

[ he's definitely moving into that touch, clearly enjoying it ]

You'll have to forgive me for not calling your physical form beautiful as freely as you say the words to me. I do tend to get caught up in the vitality, the radiance, and the allure of your soul. A distraction, if you will.

[Kissing the top of his head as he stands and heads towards the balcony.]

Well, you should enjoy the form rather than standing and sitting. The freedom of flight. To not be tethered by gravity's influence.

If you're inviting me to fly with you, I should warn you that your wings are much bigger than mine.

I'm inviting you to fly. I will simply watch.

Very well. But I do expect a proper reward for entertaining you, the joy of flying on its own is not enough.

I'm thinking of a kiss or two.

I can manage easily, but I do take the moment to enjoy the wind, the freedom, the vastness of the space around you. Forget about your worries but for a moment.

My palm or shoulder will be here waiting for your landing.

[ there is a pause at that, and he just stays on emet's hand, considering whether he actually wants to do just that or not. As a general rule, he does prefer not to enjoy something he knows is temporary overly much. No point in getting used to it, after all.

But since it is Emet's advice, he'll at least hear it. And he'll fly away from him, staying close enough to be seen in the sky, but taking the time to actually enjoy the flight for its own sake and not just to get away from people ]

[He folds his arms lightly and watches him, smiling fondly. And don't worry, Five. Surely someone will figure out how to turn him temporarily into a bat in Amaurot.

And he waits patiently and holds both of his hands out for him when he swoops down low.]

[ he'll turn back into a human as soon as he lands again, going right into Emet's arms so he can hug him ]

That wasn't terrible.

[Oh. He should have seen that coming, but he didn't. To his credit, he almost but doesn't drop him. He does let out a muffled exclamation of alarm.]

What am I to do with you?

[He kisses his forehead.]

And 'not terrible' is good enough.

[ he looks smug as satisfied of himself at the reaction - and it's obvious he was certain he wasn't going to drop him ]

You're the one who clearly has been enjoying carrying me, so. Your fault.

I will take the blame on this one.

[He flaps his wings once just to hover above the ground as Ascians are wont to do before leaning down and kissing him.]
