[ the moment tighnari responds, cyno thinks that perhaps he should have waited for this, should instead allow them both some time to simply enjoy this night and this moment without having to weigh it down with conversation. it's okay for them to just.. have this, isn't it? to allow themselves to indulge in something they've wanted for so, so long?
cyno wonders why this should be so difficult in the first place. if two people care for one another, shouldn't they be able to express that, without fear and without worry? if only things were so uncomplicated. ]
Do you remember that night - it was a long time ago - before you graduated? It was a quiet night, nothing particularly interesting happened. We sat together on the terrace outside of your apartment. It was summer, very warm, we were drinking peach iced tea.
[ cyno remembers it, he remembers it as if it were yesterday. his thumbs smooth across tighnari's cheeks, fingertips sifting into his dark hair. ]
We talked about the stars. You pointed out our constellations, and we talked about a potion that could turn me into a scarab. That night - that's when I knew.
