I wouldn't- [His eyes slide off hers, the fingers in her hair dropping with nerves. His heart throbs in his throat and he struggles to clear it] Ah.. leave you out there..
[For a moment, he's certain that he's overstepped, anticipating at the least, an extended awkward silence. The words to an apology come to his lips, but Lily speaks before he starts and he coughs on inhale with a strangled sound.
He can only nod once, utterly red and force out one word] S-someday.
[ Lily nodded immediately, her face reddening as she considered how immediately out of her depth she would be if Eleven had decided to take her up on it right away. She could handle being cheeky and making him blush, even if she made herself blush in the process, but actually following through was a little more than she was prepared for. ]
Someday, when I'm less comfortable right where I am.
[ Still pink in the face she ventured a peek over at him. ]
[Eleven dragged a hand down his face to cover his mouth. He breathed, voice straining to reassure as he attempted to focus on absolutely anything else]
[He took a few moments to ensure he was breathing enough before answering; Goddess be praised there wasn't anymore innuendo for his brain to wildly interpret. His time skirting and trying not to hear the courtesans in Sa-Hareth hadn't done him any favors]

[ She felt her face grew warm, the implications abundantly clear. ]
Maybe someday you'll show me where in your room you'd keep your rare flowers.

[ Still pink in the face she ventured a peek over at him. ]
You know you're very good to lay on.
[ Nope. Wrong direction to go in. ]
no subject
That's good.
[Which.. probably wasn't the best thing to say] I mean I- it.. I'm glad.

[ She sputtered out the words awkwardly, punctuating them with a nervous laugh. ]
It's comfortable, I'm not about to climb you I promise!
[ Shut up Lily. ]

..I know. You're okay.

Why do you make me so utterly stupid?
