Characters: Rosie, Vanyel, and Farraige.
Summary: Nerds talkin' about feelings and stuff
Date(s): Before the au event
Warnings/Notes: Talk of relationships, language, potentially nsfw!
[This was a conversation a long time coming, when Farraige first learned of Rosie's relationship with Vanyel, he felt like he shouldn't have interfered, especially with the way their relationship went. But he felt himself drawn back to Rosie again and again. The fact that she and Vanyel had an open relationship did make things easier on his conscience. But that would only do for so long. A part of him he didn't want to admit did feel a little possessive for someone that made him feel like she did.
So perhaps it was high time they meet. Farraige didn't like feeling like he was hiding, and he had to admit some part of him felt like something of an outsider. But even with that feeling, he would be unlikely to give up how he felt about Rosie. It was just as well, he had wanted to meet Vanyel in Eudio but circumstances didn't permit. Even if his memory of their conversations had grown a little hazy in the interim, he remembered Vanyel speaking as a stand-up person. With no idea of how time and the change in scenery might have affected him, Farraige hoped he would still be as decent seeming a person as he remembered. It's this moment Farraige finds himself in, waiting for the two to arrive at his home.]

Farraige knows about me too, [ she feels the need to interject. Showing her true self, as Vanyel likely knew, wasn't something she did openly. Once Vanyel had become privvy to it though, she admits it'd come easier with Farraige. Even now, she'd likely be inclined to show someone if they asked and didn't seem like someone to have their feelings change because of it. ]
The wolf side of me, I mean. And that's... That's really my hand, so.
no subject
He smiles again at Farraige's response, unable to help himself.] Fair enough.
[The smile fades, though, as Farraige keeps talking. His brows shoot toward his hairline at that mention of a 'hitchhiker,' but... well, it sounds like Farraige's been dealing with it for some time - long enough to know its limits and how it generally behaves, at least. Then Rose chimes in, and... It goes a long way toward easing his worries, actually. She knew that, and still felt secure enough to entrust him with a secret she usually tends to keep as close to her chest as she can get away with. If her obvious fondness for Farraige weren't enough of a recommendation, that seals the deal.]
Then I suppose it's my turn, isn't it? [He asks, but the question is entirely rhetorical. Addressing Farraige directly, he continues] I'm what's know in my homeland as 'Dragonborn' - human body, dragon soul. Which mostly manifests as the ability to use their magic as instinctively as they do themselves... [And while it's tempting to stop there, the point was full disclosure.] And to absorb the knowledge and power of any I defeat in combat.
no subject
Though his mind immediately goes to the presence of the thing within him. Could it comprehend what dragons are? Would it view him as a threat? Externally Farraige might well be able to carry on a normal conversation, but internally he's focusing his efforts on making sure his internal companion knows that they're friends.
But perhaps a focus away from how potentially dangerous they could be is in order. "How did you two meet, anyway?" He asks, genuinely curious if Eudio had been the start or if they had jumped worlds before.
no subject
[ It's still funny to think about, actually. ]
He healed me and we chatted a little bit. Met again at the Jade Shrine. Went on an official nature date after that. Happened to both be at an orgy and hooked up, y'know.
Usual couple stuff.
no subject
And only had anymore official dates afterward - which strikes me as a little out of order, but. It seems to have worked out for us, doesn't it?
[The question is directed at Rose, along with a smile that might be just a touch on the soppy side.]
cw: language.
Holy mackerel!
[Coughing, coughing, okay. There's his composure coming back.]
Just how many ways will people come up with to fuck?
[A rare instance of him swearing, but now he's looking between the two of them being a bit unsure. Perhaps also a bit jealous that Rosie has done so much, or that others have had their hands on her? Who can say, it's an entirely foreign emotion to him. Best to deal with later.]
I suppose there is something to be said for following the beat of your own drum.
no subject
Oh. Oh, no. He's choking. Oh, no. It's adorable. There's no hiding the way that Rose grins at his red face, obviously endeared. For even what they've done together, she knows Farraige is a bit more reserved. Which is why she's a little surprised at the swear. ]
As many ways as they can, I imagine. And I can see why! I've been having a lot of fun trying out new things.
no subject
Doesn't mean the coughing isn't a tad concerning, at first. But once that's under control, and the flush remains...]
Oh. [He glances Rose's way again.] You were right - that is adorable. [Which probably isn't going to help Farraige stop blushing anytime soon, whoops.]
I've always thought so, anyway. [And there is an actual answer for Farraige, if he'd rather not dwell on the fact that Vanyel and Rose have apparently discussed his attractiveness in some detail.]
no subject
Feels like I'm getting doubleteamed here...
[A beat. Right, orgy.]
Maybe that was a poor choice of words.
[He lets out a small huff, eager to change the topic. Had they been talking about him before this happened? It struck him as wholly bizarre. To have so much done to see his identity erased, and now there would be people who remember him so fondly, even outside of the Masters' reach.
It was hard to hide that little grin, even if such a wish felt kind of selfish.]
Look I'll er... Need to take things at a slower pace. I'm sure you both understand why.
[This was all new territory and his stomach was aflutter with butterflies. He never thought something like this would happen. Someone to love. Or maybe someones? Only time would tell, he wagers.
no subject
And of course she has to snort a laugh at his unintentional innuendo. It's cute. Though it does also give her some rather... interesting ideas for the future, whenever Farraige is ready.
Speaking of, ] I do. I'm sure Vanyel does too, but that's- It's not a problem with me at all. I want you to be comfortable. That was kind of the point of getting together like this and all.
no subject
But he doesn't want to make Farraige uncomfortable any more than Rose does. So though there's a quippy response on the tip of his tongue -'we could if you'd like'- he swallows that too.]
Of course. [He says instead.] I don't mean to cause you any discomfort either. I'm content to let things happen in their own time.
no subject
I mean... It's not like it's bad.
[His voice trails off a little as his gaze shifts about, trying to find the right words.]
It's fun and all, I'm just... Not used to it.
no subject
I won't push or anything but y'know. If you're ever wanting to try something new or move a little further, then I'm more than happy to help.
no subject
Likewise. [And that part is for Farraige.] I won't push either, of course, but... [But if Farraige wants to experiment, Vanyel is more than willing to help.]
no subject
I really appreciate you both for understanding.
[His posture relaxes a little, seeming less folded in on himself.]
Maybe this can work. I'd really like to go back someday and prove the masters wrong about their whole philosophy.
no subject
[ Rose doesn't know the whole of things so she can't rightfully say such a thing, but- It doesn't stop her from thinking it all the same. She wants Farraige to be able to do what he wants without worry of how his involvement might affect things or feel like he can't for any such reasons. Rose herself had spent too much of her life believing things of a similar vein and she'll happily hop on the opportunity to help someone else in that way. ]
Well, boys, [ she says, smiling big and bright and, for once, genuine as can be. ] I think we've got ourselves the start to a good relationship.
no subject
Agreed. [He says, and smiles at both of them.] On both counts.
