OOM: Returning Eunuch

[bigarmy_strangepants]

It is late in the day, and Ragnar is lounging in his room, talking to Athelstan.

He could spend eternity just talking to Athelstan, and then an eternity again with all the other Athelstan-related things.

But they never run out of things to talk about, it seems.

"... will turn seawater into potable water, like making salt, just the other way around," he is saying.

"Has he told you what he plans for today's meal, or is it a surprise?"

"Will there be olives?" Ragnar says, still combing Sinric's hair.

There aren't any really bad tangles in it.

"A surprise, as it often is. Unless I ask for something special." Again that shy little flush. He's not use to the idea of being spoilt that way.

Sinric smiles and turns to kiss Ragnar's cheek. "If there are olives, they won't be as good as your bread." He starts braiding his hair back up with swift and practiced hands.

Athelstan watches him, almost relaxed. As close as he gets to it now.

"It was very good bread."

"Thank you," Ragnar says. "That's probably because I made it with Rae's help and instructions."

He looks at Sinric.

"Your hair is very nice and shiny again."

Sinric purrs happily and steals a kiss from each of them. "My beloveds. I should go, it would be rude to be late. I'll see you later."

He bounces towards the door, light and cheerful now they're back to themselves again.

"Enjoy yourself", Athelstan calls after him.

[bigarmy_strangepants]

"Have fun!" Ragnar adds, slouching back on the bed.

[thewidewideworld]

He blows them a kiss and is gone.
