[ If they didn't have all night, Basch honestly would be more reluctant to let him go. But they'll both be more comfortable this way, and he wastes no time stripping his boots and garments. He looks up, flushing slightly as Olivine catches his gaze, clearly watching him from the sheets.
The enormity of it hits him, that this could become...routine. Even if only for awhile. The idea of sharing a bed, of having someone to metaphorically and literally come home to -- it's honestly too big a thought to hold, and he fears he's getting much too ahead of himself. Even when it's not a kind of thought he usually has.
Instead, he comes to the other side of the bed, sliding in beside Olivine and opening his arm to the other. The sheets are almost unbelievably smooth and the bed soft after months of bedrolls and cave walls.
His own arousal is present, though fading -- not from lack of interest, but from years of forced control. If they do nothing else tonight, he'll be beyond satisfied. ]

Some people don't like this. I'm glad you do.
