And eventually, Havelock heads upstairs, with the intention of getting to sleep.

...At some point. Half an hour later sees him showered and in clean clothes, sitting cross-legged on his bed and writing up certain impressions that he doesn't wish to forget. Among them ideas for a new trap to install in his aunt's chimney.

Idly, he wonders if razor blades would be too unsporting.

"I am sure he has a hidden talent just waiting to emerge."

Is he being serious? Who knows!

Puck snorts. "Charitable of you, darling."

Charity is a quality that Puck has always admired in Havelock.

Also: kissability. Namely, of the neckish regions.

"Isn't it?" he says dryly.

Havelock himself is admiring of Puck's talent in kissing neckish regions at large.

He smiles, eyes half-closing.

Puck is only too happy to share his talent with Havelock; it's lovely to be appreciated, after all.

"Oh ... utterly."

Havelock laughs softly, consciously relaxing. It's a little unnerving, letting your guard down when your thoughts are already fuzzy. It's not something he imagines ever getting used to.

But he can try.

One hand traces up Puck's spine to rest at the nape of his neck.

Puck can tell when Havelock unwinds; he's gotten good at telling.

It's an immensely satisfactory feeling every time.

He leans in, tilting his head a bit to get a better angle, and possibly the thought flickers through his mind that huh, it'll be awkward if the kids wake up and are scarred for life.

The narration presents this only as a possibility.

[oneman_onevote]

A possibility, yes, but a distinct one.

Oh, dear. Progressive and liberal Lilly and Puck may be, but this may even earlier than anyone wanted to educate their kids.

Good thing Havelock and Puck are sneakylike?

[puckishly.livejournal.com]

Good thing for Aria and Adrian, at the very least.

Puck and Lilly may deliberately traumatize them with fish executions, but this is something he'd rather keep on the downlow.



.... Sadly, that goes for you too, gentle reader.
