[He smiles and blushes completely infatuated with how caring Five is being. He does pause his work for a moment.]
And what would that be?
[He will give him control of the dream though upon the edges he will feeling something tug on his control of it. As of now, it’s light and easily ignored.]
[ he will try to pretend he's not feeling it at all and keep as calm as possible, focus on the way Emet is smiling and blushing for him, so as to not startle him and make it worse.
And then he will alter the scenery a little bit, letting the garden Caeli made for him combine with their pier — only there are flowers everywhere - all types that Emet has gifted to him. He will add fireflies and other special flowers that definitely do not exist in real life, but that will work as a good enough light source as he changes the sky to the night, full of twinkling stars and the moon shining high ]
[He is exceedingly touched as he wraps his arms around him and simply gazes at it.]
You did. It’s beautiful.
But hardly as beautiful as the man in front of me.
[And he does capture his lips again for a kiss though this one is more indulgent as he is trying to express how much Five means to him.
Which is the whole world and then some.
As he does alter the scenery, he’ll find that tug harder and more frequent. Distracting if anything. Though Five is no stranger to pushing down urges so it is hardly a problem for him.]
[ It is difficult to ignore it completely, so even if he's pushing it down and trying not to pay attention to it, there will be just a moment of worry showing on his face - though it's gone soon and he prefers to focus on the kiss instead, holding on Emet just a bit tighter, definitely out of protectiveness ]
I can feel the tug of something trying to wrestle control away from me.
[ but as he says that he brings his hand to Emet's head, stroking his eyes gently and letting his aetheric touches be just as soft, trying to encourage him to keep curling his soul against him ]
[He closes his eyes and leans into him giving him one final kiss on the cheek before he dissolves into aether.
And tries to nestle in the deepest recesses he carved out in his soul. And they’ve done this before and his soul still radiates warmth and acceptance, it is just a tad bit clingier this time as it seeks to find and fill any crevices it finds.]
[ It's admittedly a bit much, it always is when they meddle with each other's souls. But it feels sweet and filling in a way, like that part Emet carved out of him was always his to hide in.
He'll bring a hand to his chest as if he can feel Emet there, and just closes his eyes to focus on the feeling of his soul. For his part, he'll try to let him feel his feelings of love and adoration, and do his best to make him feel safe ]
How could I ever feel alone again when I have you here with me like this.
[He reverberates in his soul words but not words. Content as a cat in the midday sun. And he does feel safe and Five can feel that.]
Perhaps this is how I will join you when you are studying late at the Academia. To know we are never apart.
[With him physically gone and tucked away the dream does shudder a bit. That glass like sound a little more clearer (though it appears emet can’t hear it) and the tug more insistent on taking control of the dream from him.]
[ he will very stubbornly fight for that control, physically walking just a bit away, toward the pier so he can sit there. He knows there's not really an external force doing this, it has to be Emet himself on some level, so he wonders if maybe being as peaceful as possible will help. ]
I'd like that. You'll get to rest and I get to enjoy my beautiful lover's presence with me even when I'm busy. I think I could settle for it.
[He murmurs deep in his soul nesting in and petting the aether around him.]
I could also distract you in the most delightful ways. I do look forward to it.
[And the tug seems to react to Five’s calmness now that Emet’s soul is tucked away. An echo from the gift of the dream powers. Five wanted to be a shield for him and, despite his complaints, that is what Emet wanted, too. At least subconsciously.]
[ Good. It's nice to see that seems to work so far, and that Emet is actually letting him protect him, for once. He's always the one taking care of him, so of course he wants to return the favor now. ]
Oh, right in public? Do I have to worry about us getting a reputation, then?
[ Feeling Emet's soul with his like that, him wrapping around his core, really warms him in a way he can't really describe. It's enough to really push any fear of being alone away if only for a short moment, and right now he feels loved and taken care of. Even with the nightmare he experienced being so fresh, Emet does always have a way to soothe him.
He smiles at the words, and lie back as instructed ]
[He will hear a hum in his head and the a brush against his aether from head to toe. While it might feel a little sensual, the goal is to soothe him. To find any knots or stress points and gently work them out. To smooth it as much as he can without a physical presence.]
[ It's another unexpected turn of events, and he does let out a soft sigh at the touch. It's always different when it's aether, but in a way it feels more intense, and that makes it that much better. ]

[ and he will try to reach for his soul as well - soft, gentle aetheric touches ]
Re: Day 378
Tenacity has always been one of your virtues.
[And he tilts his head down so he can kiss his lips softly.]
Re: Day 378
I'd almost say it's how I won you over.
Re: Day 378
[He works at the core of his soul. Petting it. Caressing it. But also molding the aether slightly while trying to be gentle about it.]
Re: Day 378
Should I ask what are you aiming for?
Re: Day 378
[And that is exactly what he is doing. Carving a place to hide.]
Would you like control over the dream?
Re: Day 378
[ he'll leave a soft kiss to his cheek, and keep with his soft aetheric touches ]
Yes. I do have something I'd like to make for you.
Re: Day 378
And what would that be?
[He will give him control of the dream though upon the edges he will feeling something tug on his control of it. As of now, it’s light and easily ignored.]

Just thought I'd improve on this a little.

Re: Day 378
You're biased, but I like to hear that.
Re: Day 378
[He has a guess as the look crosses over him but he asks anyway. And he gently strokes his cheek.]
Biased perhaps but truthful. You are beautiful in sight, touch and taste.
[And he does love it. The protectiveness. He does begin curling his soul around his just to feel closer.]
Re: Day 378
[ but as he says that he brings his hand to Emet's head, stroking his eyes gently and letting his aetheric touches be just as soft, trying to encourage him to keep curling his soul against him ]
But it's fine.
