[Silco kept his gaze on Richard as the younger man emerged from the denser underbrush to the lighter wider path, feeling the twitch of those fingers. They both existed in this proverbial darkness that Richard talked about, and it didn't matter to him to pursue whatever light was supposed to be hanging above them like a gift. No, he existed best in the dim light or darkness.
He made a soft hmm when it seemed that his lover had noticed that he kept impeccible care of his appearance, but the rest of his personal care was haphazard at best. Until Richard pulled him into bed, his sleeping habits were better than Jinx's but worse than most peoples still. Sleeping upright had always been a defense mechanism, able to come from sleep and at least appear to be sharp in seconds. His chair also allowed him to rest the left side of his face in it to black out the room. Well, he had Richard's back, shoulder, neck or chest for that these days, which was a far more comfortable replacement.]
My back has been fortified carrying a city on it for a few years. Besides, I expect you'd be the reason for any back issues. [It was a tease, small and off-hand. He and Richard had a rigorous sex life these days, only getting more so as they became emotionally attached to each other.] You're not going to try to make me take up running or some other strange yet normal physical activity, are you?
