The Duskwight didn’t remember how it happened. He had been drinking, but only lightly, as was his usual routine. Others always called it ‘nursing’, as if the Elezen was a babe rather than a 6′11′’ tall young man. He had decided to take to the bar at KISS, thankful that it was not a night full of events and he was alone. At least, he thought.
Suddenly, but not abruptly, there was warmth. Not the weightless feeling in his core that lingered like a low fire due to imbibing spirits, but a seeping heat. One that came from his side, more specifically, his right side at his arm and shoulder. Golden eyes dipped to the source, bright in the low light of the room and they widened as Auliander found another form.
Renaux- ?
Auliander could barely see the other man’s face. It was shrouded both in darkness, and the man’s mussed hair. What Auliander could see though, was that his eyes were shut. Renaux’s body was lax against his, curled against the retainer’s shoulder and from the close contact, Auliander could hear the soft, steady and slow breath of someone who had fallen victim to slumber. And also, alcohol. The smell was potent and came strong from the other.
The Duskwight did not move, nor did he want to. There was comfort in the lack of noise around them. Such a difference from Auliander’s usual visits. Loud, sometimes brazen, and brash but still entertaining, amazing and… fun were the performances.
So… Auliander sat. He ‘nursed’ his drink. Those amber eyes trailed across the vacant venue before again falling on Renaux. The retainer was surprised the other man had snuck up on him so. Perhaps he had been drinking longer than he thought. More than he had thought. Questions floated in his brain but were drowned with wine. Later. Ask later. The warmth was nice. It was calm, serene. Safe.
The only thoughts left lingering in Auliander’s mind were the fact that he knew little of the man at his side. They had spoken only a handful of times but … the Duskwight trusted him. Renaux had that air about him, that aura. Secrets lingered at the edge of it, unspoken and untold yet still his trust in Renaux was not a blind one. Auliander’s gaze focused heavily on the sleeping features of the man, eyes seemingly deepening in color but then those thoughts were drifting just as those questions before.
Lost at sea.
Before he had realized it, Auliander’s body had relaxed itself in slight against Renaux’s. The last thought that came to him before he closed his eyes was the quiet hope that the other Elezen was not a drooler.

☆ - Keelah no longer allows Ren to borrow any of her corsets unless he vows to pay for a thorough dry cleaning before returning them to her wardrobe. She will never forgive him for the time he returned a corset covered in tar. Where and how he got doused in tar he would not divulge.
☆ - On several occasions Ren has woken up in Kee’s bed with his hair in curlers and his face covered in night cream. Kee insists every time that he banged on her office door at four in the morning loudly demanding a makeover and ‘girl talk’.
☆ - Ren once found Kee hanging by the scruff of her coat over the side of the balcony of Elysium. She claims Vachir stuck her up there as a cruel joke, but Ren is certain she was simply a clumsy (and possibly drunk) fool while attempting to climb up to the roof. Either way, he had to find a ladder to fish her back down.
☆ - One night, long after the cabaret had closed for the night, Ren was performing one last security check before locking up when he caught Keelah singing her heart out on stage. She was completely unaware of his presence, even after she had finished and left for the night. He’ll never admit to catching her, mostly to save her the embarrassment, but also to give him a chance to catch her singing again.
Thank you for the prompt, @changephase[For every ⭐️ I receive I will write a headcanon for our characters]
1. What makes you the most emotional about your muse?
Thala’to makes me very emotional in a kind of outraged way because of his bad luck. All of my muses can trigger emotions in me, however I do not tend to get sad. Not over my muses anyways. I get sad over other muses. Please stop torturing your muses, people. (Who am I kidding, I know that is impossible. Right, @locke-rinannis ? :eyes: )
“Y-you honestly expect me to pick anything but kill for anyone you would term a ‘murder hobo catte’? Fine...I would fuck Ranirus...completely up with something bladed, I’m sure I could commission Atherton for a nice piece to commemorate the occasion. Marry Sun’ra’s vile innards to the earth permanently. I’d even wear my best tuxedo. And...I have not met Cohza to my knowledge so I would just kill her the regular way, I suppose, whatever that is in this particular game. I haven’t really a grudge there to satisfy or anything.”

Meet me at the Drowning Wench in exactly twelve bells from the time you receive this letter. I trust you to be punctual. I also trust that you will be capable of keeping your mouth shut. I shall bring a gag to be certain of it.
If I Think They Are: Ugly || Plain || Alright || Cute || Freaking Adorable || Pretty || Beautiful || Hot || Stunning
Auliander reaches up to try and pull at his collar subtly. He’s not and the young retainer blushes. “Renaux is... A handsome man.” There’s a soft clearing of a throat and Auliander continues, “Though I ... I wish he would not wear those darkened sunglasses so oft. His eyes are remark - w-well - “ He trails off. Next question.
If I Would Go On A Date With Them: Not even if we were the last two one earth || No || Maybe || Eh….Sure || Yes || WILL YOU MARRY ME
More flustering though this time it’s not as obvious. “P-perhaps just an afternoon lunch.” Auliander continues softly, “We.... We have met many a time but still yet do I find him a mystery. I would like to know more about him.”
If I Trust Them: Not At All || Not Really || Kind of || Yes || With My Life
The Duskwight merely nods.
If I Care About Them: Not At All || Not Really || Kind of || Yes || Deeply
Auliander tilts his head in slight, “I... believe I do. Again, I know naught much about Renaux but he has always treated me in kindness.”
If I Would Sleep With Them: Not Enough Alcohol in the World || No || Maybe if I were wasted || Maybe || Eh…Sure || Yes || TAKE YOUR CLOTHES OFF NOW!
“......” The Ishgardian blinks and swallows. Hard. There’s a shake of a head and blonde locks of hair fall upon dark and blushing features. Next question.
My Comfort Level With Your Muse: Keep a Distance || Okay You Can Stand There, But Don’t Touch Me || Let’s Get Coffee and Talk || Let’s Cuddle || I Can Change In Front of You || Let’s Take a Bath Together
“Tea. Or afternoon lunch.” Auliander repeats quietly.
If I See You As: A Stranger || An Acquaintance || A Friend || A Close Friend || My Best Friend || A Crush || The Love of My Life
The Duskwight murmurs under soft breath, “A good man and one I would hesitate to call true friend. I would know him more first.”
Thank you for the ask @changephase ♥ I’d love to have Auli interact with Ren not at an event one of these days haha ))
