Alistair awoke in what appeared to be a stable, one that still smelled faintly of Mabari. And horse, of course, but that was more expected. He was also being poked in the bare back by itchy prickly straw. He jumped to his feet.
"Well, this is...horrifyingly familiar. Next I'll be swarmed by a large group of hounds, just you wait."
He did. Wait, that is. Nothing happened.
"O-okay then, maybe not. I haven't regressed to ten years old, have I?" He poked his own cheek, which was still fairly bristly, and glanced down at himself, half-clothed as he was in just the trousers he'd worn to sleep in. "Nope, never mind, still myself. How peculiar. I haven't dreamt of Redcliffe in years, but then this doesn't look much like Redcliffe, does it? It smells like Redcliffe. Hrm."
He wrinkled his nose and headed out of the stable, into what sort of looked like daylight, accidentally kicking some kind of book halfway across the stable floor as he did so. He muttered an apology to the thing and scooped it up, for lack of anything better to do with it.

"Vhenan...?"

Date: 2015-08-23 06:00 am (UTC)From:He lay awake a while after she had fallen asleep, still reveling at her presence in his arms, but eventually sleep claimed him too.

Date: 2015-08-23 06:15 am (UTC)From:His warmth and his scent always worked miracles by her sleep and having him back in such tiresome situation was more than she believed she deserved.
When she woke up, hours later, her heart was relieved for having him by her side; she didn't think she would stand the pain of having dreamt all their time together. He looked serene and younger when sleeping, bringing a smile to her face when she recalled the first time they shared the tent. Creators, she was so nervous, but so was he, and everything was very awkward but he had been so thoughtful, so careful and gentle she could hardly picture a more perfect way of trusting her body and heart to someone. She caressed his cheek and brushed his lips with her fingerpads gazing at him fondly.

Date: 2015-08-24 06:25 am (UTC)From:At the soft brush of Neria's fingers along his cheek, he stirred.
"Nnnngh," he mumbled against her fingers on his lips, eyes closed. He tilted his head back to nuzzle towards the sensation. Someone was touching him, his sleepy mind supplied, and if memory served him, those were his wife's fingers. He hoped. He scrunched his eyes shut even more and got a little furrow between his brows. Please, please...
"Please tell me that's you, love," he said, voice hoarse with sleep and cautiously hopeful, still not opening his eyes.

Date: 2015-08-24 07:16 am (UTC)From:"Whatever..." his right hand drifted upwards to tangle in her hair, "might we..." he kissed her languidly, lips pressing, gentle but insistent, against hers and then dipping to kiss the corner of her mouth before he pulled back. He rolled his hips suggestively. "...do about that?"

no subject
Date: 2015-08-24 07:31 am (UTC)From:Just as quickly, he grasped more firmly at Neria's hips and rolled her and himself so that he was on top.
"You..." he said, peppering kisses under her jaw and down her neck and over her breastbone, "are impossible and beautiful and completely, totally, utterly distracting." He propped himself up on an elbow by her head and gave her a completely wide-open smile, ignoring the blush threatening to creep from his ears and down to his chest.

Date: 2015-08-24 07:48 am (UTC)From:He bent his head to nose along the side of one breast and then scraped his teeth over her nipple, soothing the sting with his tongue immediately.
"Mm. Is it working?" He peered at her face.

Date: 2015-08-25 06:05 am (UTC)From:The raspy feeling of his stubble against the soft skin of her thigh, the wet warmth of his tongue against her folds, his fingers... all his noises and gestures were damping her senses.

Date: 2015-08-25 06:38 am (UTC)From:He could feel his own need growing inside him, a warm pressure at the bottom of his stomach, his cock already hard and and trapped against his stomach by the bed. He resisted the urge to rut against the sheets seeking friction and focused instead on the noises his wife was making, the tension in her legs around him. He licked intently, tongue sweeping, then moving up to lap at her clit.

Date: 2015-08-25 06:49 am (UTC)From:"Vhenan... please....
Her voice trembled, breathless.

no subject
Date: 2015-08-25 07:05 am (UTC)From:She reached out for him, propping herself up. Neria let go of his hand, cupping his jaw and bending to kiss his lips, taste herself on his mouth. Her tongue coaxed to part his lips, to tangle and swirl with his own, wet, lustful, needing, delicious moans and noises stifled by their kiss.
