Okay. 

Well.

He knows some things you can do next. He feels suddenly self conscious because even if she doesn't know it, it actually does matter if you're good at this and he's not, yet, because he has never done it before, though the mindmeld probably helps, but - he would be very sad if she thinks this actually sucks -

She doesn't think it sucks. 

She just - likes him, and likes making him happy, and likes getting to touch him, and likes him touching her, and maybe later she'll be ready for more experimentation and she can find out that actually other things are way better than this, but right now she's kind of just this side of overwhelmed by this, and - she thinks this is nice. It's nice getting to be with him. It's nice not having to put up barriers so they don't get carried away and it's nice getting to have things she wants and it's nice that he cares so much about her.

He loves her more than anything in the universe. He just wants to make her happy forever and ever and ever.

It is so convenient that the things he wants sound amazing. She's definitely very happy right now.

Eventually she will probably be done with the very novel parts of this, and she can think at him that now she wants him to maybe just snuggle her and pet her hair for a while.

Yeah. That sounds good. He can do that.

Snuggle. He's very good and hers and she loves him very very much.

"I think I like getting to have whatever I want. Actually."

"Good. You should."

Delighted snuggle.

"Want you forever and ever."

"Well, then it's a good thing you can have me forever and ever."

"Yeah.

"I keep wondering if this could've been a bad decision and then remembering that you belong to me and you're wonderful and you can't go, and then - I don't think I know what it being bad would even look like, given that."

"Oh good. I'm really glad. Don't ever want you to - regret anything -"

Nodnod.

"Gonna take such good care of you. Gonna try very hard to, anyway."

"Just - want me, sometimes. I guess. I don't know if that's a reasonable thing to ask."

"It doesn't sound hard."

"Love you."

"Love you too. Very much."

...before she settles down to take a nap she wants to see if her spellbook has changed.

Time to yourself:

When you're doing things that you want to do, time is paused except for people you bring with you. Time starts again when you stop doing things that you want to do.

To learn this spell, do something you want to do. Say, jhafatiri.

She reads her spell to Connor.

"Mmm. Sounds - useful?"

"It does address my desire to appear to be doing useful things at, like, most times."

"While actually you can do nice things all the time!"

"Yes.

"Can I take it?"

"I think you should!"

"Okay."

She kisses him. And she says the magic word.

"I think... right now I wanna keep snuggling you."

"Then I guess you should do that."
