Her heart is like yours. So beautiful and accepting. (Tambë presses a kiss to Astaldo's chest, nuzzling close.) I love you the way you are, Finno. I will prove my loyalty to her and your father if he will give me a chance.
You make me happy- that is important to them. [Despite everything else, he knew that Fingolfin wouldn't deny his children something -or someone- who made them happy.]
He and my mother always told us to go after our hearts and never settle, that even if we couldn't have what or who we wanted, if we settled for something else it would make us unhappy in the end.
As it is to any parent. (Tambë doesn't doubt that about Fingolfin.) I will show them through my actions how I love you. That is the best I can give them.
Well, not too much. I got a bruise on my butt and I scraped my shoulder. [He flushed a little darker as he admitted that, omitting that at the time it had hurt enough he had had to bite his lip to keep from tearing up. Even if he had been of age, falling down hurt. But no matter how terrible he was a flirting, that didn't stop him.]
Turgon thought I was just messing around and told me to be more careful. And Aredhel didn't stop laughing for days. I just...I had no idea how to flirt with you.
On your - Oh I see. (He tilts his head, smirking faintly. Gently, he shifts Astaldo and repositions himself to kiss said once-bruised backside.) Flirtations never made sense to me. I have always been more -
Literal. (He rubs his cheek against Astaldo's side.) I suppose it was too much to ask you to simply kiss me.
Oh I have no shame about flirting with you now that I don't have to hide it. Now that I can let the shoulder of my robe fall down and you know that that means. [He kissed Tambe's thumb affectionately.]
I'm learning to flirt better at least! And I'm glad you even like me when I'm clumsy.
Grab me. Pin me down. (With anyone else, Tambë might panic at such contact. But not with Astaldo. He knows him inside and out. His Finno could hold a knife to his throat and he would not stop him.)
Mm I would, but the kiss would be mostly for me. (He grins.)
And kiss you and touch you? [Astaldo grinned. He knew Tambe didn't give that trust easily and that it was special that he would be able to pin Tambe down.]
I am curious where you will start. (There is a lot of him. Being so tall is a benefit in this case. He sighs happily into the kiss, tasting Astaldo's lips playfully.)
If you insist. (He grins under the kisses, arching up with a small groan. His skin has never felt so sensitive. Astaldo peels back all of his barriers and makes him feel love, joy and a deep peace.)

no subject
(He shifts closer.) Are you unhappy?
no subject
My heart is content- I have the one I love the most by my side. I never stopped loving you, I never wanted anyone else.
no subject
I was never attracted to another. You were the only one I wanted.
no subject
You're the only one I've ever wanted. I knew you were the one- there could be no other for me.
no subject
(Tambë smirks and toys with Astaldo's hair.)
no subject
[Astaldo admitted as his cheeks flushed.]
I remember one time I tried to look sexy for you with the shoulder of my robe falling down and fell over in the process.
no subject
I am very glad I did not make a comment about your attire, then. (That would have made it far worse.) Was it this shoulder here that you showed me...?
(He playfully kisses one pale shoulder.)
no subject
Yes...that shoulder...

no subject
What about when I flirt with you now though?
[He grinned, running his hands through Tambe's hair.] You can ask me anytime and I will have kiss you.
no subject
I love your unapologetic flirtations, yes. Shame does not suit you when you are with me. I want all of you - even if you are clumsy.
(Tambë flushes and shifts to lay on his side.)
Will you kiss me?
no subject
I'm learning to flirt better at least! And I'm glad you even like me when I'm clumsy.
no subject
It means the robe should come off of you. It means...you need me.
(He rests their foreheads together.)
I will do my best to catch you if you fall again.
no subject
I know. And you would kiss me to make it all better.
no subject
Mm I would, but the kiss would be mostly for me. (He grins.)
no subject
I think we both enjoy those kisses!
no subject
How convenient. I still say you are an expert at it.
no subject
I am? It's amazing how skilled we've become at kissing already.
no subject
We do like to practice.
no subject
I want to kiss you all over!
no subject
I am yours to kiss.
