The slight hum from Vaeros resonated through the liminal space of the forest; Casimir was not entirely an indulgent creature, selfish surely, but he'd learned the horrid fang of compassion and it had chipped away at his more forward spirit over the years. Not a creature propelled by fear, but one who had settled into this vision of red - bloodshed, invention, prying himself from fate - he'd never thought much of desires until they stood before him, as though shaking him awake from subliminal slumber.
A subtle nod was all Casimir gave in retort, it wasn't often the dhampir was without words, but a brow piqued as Vaeros fell into his own state of demands; the crux of pride which shimmered so glaringly in the three of them. Yielding out of curiosity, Casimir shifted upward from his knee and the space between them disappeared, the warmth of the prismatic this staggering cloak upon dead skin. "I thought I was to show you," something of a question, that which was answered immediately as Casimir tipped his mouth to the others - another act which was still mostly foreign to him, a kiss.
"You've shown a decent amount, but I want to see more." The dragon wasn't exactly a patient soul, pride flowed freely between the three of them, as did the restlessness. At some times, the creature didn't know where one of them began and another ended. Maybe he preferred it that way. A dragon, such a solitary being, but not in the past â they weren't meant to be so, as the world had pushed them to be. To commune with spirits, to understand what that meant, and to help Casimir do what he wished to do â beat the Night and the darkness. Or something like that.
Still, the kiss was met with fervor, a devouring that Vaeros knew well as he gripped the dhampir. There was nothing gentle about it, more a consuming, to taste every inch of the unknown â after all, there was nothing the dragon loved more than something to be explored. As far as he was concerned, the two were bonded â Casimir, like Nik, a treasure to be held so close to his heart that he was almost certain that it had been pieced back together after the Aetherians had nearly destroyed it.
