Could you tide me over while I shuttle myself to you now?

[sunbasking]

i could be persuaded
if you tell me exactly what you want from me this time

[shorttermed]

I would like to get to know your body a little better. Your back perhaps, those shoulders. Will you show me more?

[sunbasking]

just a moment

[It does take longer than Rilan would like, but he does eventually manage to take a few pictures for Sola, utilizing a larger mirror in the bedroom.

From the first picture it's clear that Rilan's removed the shirt he'd been wearing, and with the help of a mirror in the bedroom takes a picture of his back, showing bare skin from his spine across to his shoulder and biceps.

It's the second picture that shows more, however, from Rilan's turned head as he glances over his shoulder, past broad shoulders and muscled back, to his thighs. While his shirt is gone, his pants have remained on, still snug enough to show some definition of muscle there as well.]

[ she stares at her device, flipping between both photos with a little smile on her face. ]

You really are quite beautiful.
I am lucky.

[sunbasking]

[The next picture, unasked for, is a selfie. He looks relaxed in the dimmer lighting of the bedroom, and smiling gently.]

i'm glad you feel that way
i know that i'm luckier but i won't argue if you think you're lucky as well

do you know when you'll be arriving?

[shorttermed]

[ though sola has saved all of them, that one, she takes special care to keep in a folder. ]

I promise I am on my way. My pen is down now.

[sunbasking]

i wasn't trying to rush you i promise
just determine how much time I have to prepare for your arrival

[shorttermed]

Fifteen minutes or so. No need to do all that preparation. I would just be happy to see you.

[sunbasking]

just a little then
nothing extravagant

because i'll be happy to see you too when i didn't think i'd get to tonight

[shorttermed]

I would call myself the fool to turn you down after those pictures. I also must admit that it is nice to be wanted.

[sunbasking]

[He hopes very much that her statement isn't meant to imply some period of time in which she didn't feel wanted, but Rilan doesn't want to pry over text, or even imply he thinks it's possible.]

of course it is
and i promise that tonight i will make sure that you know you how much i want you



mostly respectfully

[shorttermed]

Good man.

[ and she laughs. a moment passes, then: ]

I do not doubt you or your feelings. My hope is that we can be like this together many years down the line.

[sunbasking]

i have every reason to believe that we will be

and to think, we're only getting started

[shorttermed]

We certainly are.
I would like to do something nice for you since you have offered your messages alongside some other respectful gestures.

[sunbasking]

do you have something in mind or are you asking for my thoughts?

[shorttermed]

Do you have any requests?

[sunbasking]

i do, but i think i'll wait until you're here to make them

for now, a picture of your face will tide me over

[shorttermed]

[ professional as always, she has taken her hair down once she's en route to him, scalp a little sore from having it up for so long. she takes a quick photo with a small smile to send to him. ]

[sunbasking]

you're beautiful sweetheart
thank you

[shorttermed]

Is that your chosen pet name? :)

[sunbasking]

i thought i'd try a few on for size darling
see which you like best too

are there any endearments specific to pollux?

[shorttermed]

My treasure, my little sun/moon.
What about you?

[sunbasking]

treasure might be a little on the nose, or snout, for a husband who is a dragon

do you consider yourself more sun or moon?

barrithians don't have any specific to our culture
not in the same way that i'd use for either of us anyway

[shorttermed]

Let us decide when you let me in. ;)
