(He makes a small sound of confusion, yet his hand moves over Astaldo's abdomen lovingly.)

I was not seeking to be amazing; I was telling the truth.

[consumedbyfire]

I know, love. You would never lie to me.

[Astaldo put his hand on Tambe's, rubbing his thumb across his hand idly.]

[castintoflames]

Only because lying to you is impossible. (He huffs and turns his hand so their fingers are intwined.)

[consumedbyfire]

We know and love each other too much to ever lie. [Astaldo couldn't ever do that to Tambe. Not even about the small things even when he felt bad such as about being tired when Tambe came home.]

[castintoflames]

Mm which is why, my Finno, I know you need rest. (He opens the drain and picks Astaldo up smoothly as he stands up. Once outside of the tub, he drives his lover off first, wrapping him in the warm red robe.)

[consumedbyfire]

You know me best, Maitimo. [Astaldo wrapped his arms around Tambe's neck, allowing himself to be lifted up. He knew he wouldn't be dropped. Once he was wrapped up, he pulled the robe closer around him.]

I will rest well now.

[castintoflames]

I do. (He flushes in delight, chuckling at Astaldo in the fluffy robe.) I will carry you to bed in a moment.

(Tambë dries off and tugs on his robe before pulling his lover back into his arms.)

[consumedbyfire]

[When Tambe pulled him back, Astaldo wrapped his arms around his shoulder and leaned up to kiss him softly.]

I love it when you carry me to bed.

[castintoflames]

(He nuzzles into the kiss and walks to their bed, setting Astaldo down. Then he tugs open the tie of his lover's robe.)

I will keep you warm too.

[consumedbyfire]

[Astaldo felt warm from the bath and he got comfortable on the bed before holding his arms out for his husband.]

I can only sleep with you in the bed. I've tried sleeping while you were working and it isn't the same.

[castintoflames]

Have you really? (He smiles and slips off his robe before joining Astaldo under the covers.) I'm here, Finno. You can even rest on me.

[consumedbyfire]

I can close my eyes and rest but I can't rest as well. [He snuggled close, wrapping his arms around Tambe with a yawn.]

You're so comfortable, Maitimo.

[castintoflames]

Then I will endeavor to be available every time you wish to nap. (Tambë strokes over Astaldo's arm, humming.)

Close your eyes, Finno. (He begins to tell him an old Elven fable in a soft voice to help him sleep.)

[consumedbyfire]

[He was about to ask if Tambe really meant every single time but then he realized that if he asked it, Tambe really would be there every single time he needed him without fail.

Astaldo closed his eyes with a happy smile, holding onto Maitimo. His Maitimo. He allowed himself to slowly let go to the sound of his lover's voice, comforted by the steady rhythm of his heart and the warm.

It wasn't long before he was fast sleep, still holding onto his husband.]

[castintoflames]

(Without a doubt, he would be there. Tambë's instincts where Astaldo is concerned are very sharp.

He smiles tenderly at the sight of his husband fast asleep. Gently, he presses a kiss to Astaldo's forehead, nestling under the covers so he can rest his head on the pillows.

For now, he is happy to watch his lover sleep. It's peaceful.)

[consumedbyfire]

[Astaldo slept deeply, still holding onto his husband tightly throughout the night. Once in while, he clung Tambe a little closer, face scrunched up before relaxing once more.

He didn't wake up until the sun started to come over the horizon, scrunching his face up stubbornly as he started to come to with a low groan.]

[castintoflames]

(Tambë touches him and kisses him lightly throughout the night, resting in spurts. However each time Astaldo tenses, he holds him closer, stroking over his hair.

As the sun rose and spread light across the room, he smiles at the groan and kisses his lover deeply. Arin mews and toddles up to them, nestling against Astaldo's shoulder.)

[consumedbyfire]

[It was the best way to wake up. Held in his lover's arms and being nestled by a kitten. He smiled lazily, looking up at his lover with dark blue eyes.]

Good morning, love.

[castintoflames]

(Tambë chuckles and tucks his hair behind his ear. Arin presses a little nose against Astaldo's cheek, snuffling.)

Good morning. How did you sleep?

I think Arin is trying to keep you warm.

[consumedbyfire]

Really well. And he's doing a good job, he's so warm! I have you and him- how could I be cold?

[He smiled as he felt Arin lean his little fuzzy cheek against his neck.]

[castintoflames]

You would have to work hard to be cold. (Tambë kisses the side of Arin's head. He pulls Harya up too, resting him on his chest.)

How were your dreams?

[consumedbyfire]

[Astaldo snuggled up to his husband, slowly petting Harya gently.]

I dreamed I was out riding with Aredhel, back in Valinor. I couldn't catch her, she was always just in front of me and I kept reaching out- and right before I woke she vanished as if she had never been there.

[castintoflames]

(Harya yawns and blinks adorably sleepy eyes. Tambë frowns faintly and nudges his forehead against Astaldo's.)

You miss her.

[consumedbyfire]

Every day. I miss her, Turgon and Argon. I wish I could see them again. [He smiled as he leaned his head against Tambe's affectionately.]

I know I'll see them again some day.

[castintoflames]

(He knows the feeling, though he is lucky to have Etyangol. Tambë feels helpless where their siblings are concerned. He whispers against his lover's hair:)

You will, love. The Fëanorians do not deserve to be reunited, but my Fingon deserves to see his brothers and sister.
