( Hwyl kisses Ish twice - once on each dimple. Cute... cute....... )
For accepting my love.
( And, well, they both know how it isn't quite a given - to love and have that love received, and held dear, even without hope of being loved in return. )
So if your heart escapes you, I'll just have to catch it. Just like how you've held mine, even as it's felt like breaking.
( He's still mourning - and will be, for awhile yet. But even with his red-rimmed eyes, that he can feel in a way so raw and unfettered toward Ish, and be held by his love in return... it lifts his heart, even as it'd felt heavy and dead against the sea floor. It reminds him of how he'd safely bubbled Akira and Balthazar, and how he'd never expected - and had made peace with - never quite getting the same in return.
He really should be the one thanking Ish, but he does in his own way - in how he kisses him, spoils him, gazes at him; in how he can't stand all the moments without him. This world has been hard on his heart, but - he feels safe held here. And it's nice to know that maybe - if all goes well at the carnival - if all goes well wish Norna, and Ish - there might just be more and more years like this. )
