Oh, good. She kisses back enthusiastically.

Mmmmm.

Maybe at some point they should go into the house.

He's a little too busy to think of suggesting it, though.

Eventually, after a significant amount of kissing has happened, she comes up for air and says, "So did you want to see the inside of your house or just the outside?"

"Inside sounds good."

"Mm. --Knife shop first might be more fun, depending on whether you just want to see the inside or do obvious inside things."

...well now he has to kiss her again.

"I think the knife shop can wait."

Kissssss mmmmm.

"Alright," she says, a little breathless.

"I mean, unless you don't think I can hold your attention without a weapon," he jokes.

"Mm, I bet you can. Only one way to find out, though."

Right, into the house they go. The house is huge and stunningly gorgeous but right now all Tael cares about is the quickest route to a reasonably comfortable item of furniture. Hey look, a couch, that'll work.

Disrobing while kissing is a challenge but one that Tila has experience conquering.

Tael is too impatient for that. His clothes catch fire and burn away, leaving him in nothing but his god-star betrothal pendant.

--That is unexpected! And honestly kind of hot.

Oh good. Back to kissing.

Oh, yes. She finishes getting her clothes off, although she also leaves the pendant on.

He does his very best to hold her attention.

Her attention is thoroughly held.

Perfect.

He's using teeth, right, she is so in favor of teeth.

He wouldn't dream of omitting such a crucial component.

Ohhhhhhhh good.

Eventually, he ends up flopped on the couch with his arms wrapped around her, looking at her like she's the most wonderful thing he's ever seen.

She sighs happily and snuggles closer. "That was awesome."

"You're amazing."

"I never expected a soulmate, but then, I never imagined you."
