Noah's eyes went wide. He swallowed audibly. There was a long, long stretch of silence, and then:
"...wow." |
"I'm sorry." Veli nuzzled carefully. Awww, poor Noah...
|
"Nn--s'just...wow..." Noah mused. The poor man was speechless. In awe, not quite angry, and speechless.
|
"Because I'm a halfbreed, my lifespan is shorter than the average merman." Veli said, curling up tighter. Awww, he'd made Noah angry...
|
"Nn, s'okay, just a whole lotta years for the likes'a me," Noah sighed, playing with Veli's hair again.
|
"Dad says it goes fast. He's... Middle aged, I think." Veli reached up and stroked his cheek. D'aaaw.
|
"Of course he does," Noah reasoned with a little laugh, "but I'm technically only supposed to live 30 more, max. More likely end-20."
|
"You're at a good point to pause at." Veli said, massaging his chest lightly.
|
"Awful. I'm middle-aged, just startin' t'fail." Noah chuckled and shook his head.
"But whatever. We should get married." ...what?! |
"Mmm, but you're strong and sexy." Veli nuzzled.
"Get... Married...?" |
"Yeah, yenno, like...rings and eternal love in the eyes of god, so on and so forth," Noah shrugged, "Granted, we'd have to go to MAssachusetts or..Canada. Or Ireland."
|
"Ireland's pretty this time of year." Veli mentioned. He'd been there. "It's been a while since I've been there or Canada."
|
Noah shrugged, "I can only take a day or two off from this job. Other than that restraint, it's all up to you."
|
Veli smiled, leaning up to kiss him. "It doesn't matter where or when. As long as you're mine, Noah."
|
Noah shrugged.
"Then maybe we don't have to do it at all. I ain't goin' nowhere. |
"Of course you're not." Veli smiled, kissing his neck. "Where else would you find someone with my talents?"
|
"Brothel," Noah said seriously...but then just stated to laugh. Hey, at least he wasn't lying.
"But you're all I need." |
"Psh, you gotta worry about icky human cooties there. Humans have some pretty gross cooties too." He kissed his neck and nuzzled. Mmm, Noah smell.
|
"Heeeeey..." Noah laughed, "They're no worse than yours!"
|
"Yeah, well, my cooties don't give you syphilis." Veli stuck out his tongue. "And Brothel broads can't talk to your fish for you."
|
"Yeah, yeah, yeah," Noah snorted, "Just for that, I'm getting revenge sex...when we're not both dying."
|
"As long as it's with me." Veli grinned, kissing. "You know I'll do anything for you with great enthusiasm."
|
Noah laughed. Hard.
"I'll take that as a promise!" |
"Mmmm, Baby. S'more than a promise." Veli grinned and smooched him. "S'a vow."
|
Noah smiled, kissing his Veli gently.
"I love you." |
