[Kaworu's long and delicate eyelashes flutter against Paul's as he looks into deep green eyes, drinking in their beauty, loneliness, and affection. He shifts, so Paul can pull him even closer, so there's nothing keeping every part of them from touching, melding.]

You are the first thing who I have ever loved. And who loved me. And so I always will. No matter what. Until the entire vacuum decay of all stars and all worlds. And even beyond then. I swear to you.

[There must be truth to what Kaworu says about the human condition being shaped by boundary forming terror. Paul knows it because he's felt it so long, with every time he's tried to fight how fearlessly Kaworu offers himself to him, the hooking fear that he will take all that he is given, and then he will take more.

But there's no more to take than everything, and there is a difference being taking and being given. He feels this too. He feels everything, a kaleidoscope whirl that dazzles and overwhelms.]

And I'll love you back. [He says, fiercely tender.] Through the last light of the last stars, into the dark, still places after them.

I know.

[There's no call Paul doesn't answer. No faith that he would betray. Kaworu can trust Paul's words, as fierce and poetic as they are. It's strange to feel so at ease with another person. They may as well have no AT Fields at all.

He leans closer, breath ghosting on Paul's lips.]

Now you can take me all for yourself.

[One of the things Paul loves (he turns the word in his mind like a pearl under light, admiring its sheen) about Kaworu are the flights of his thoughts, never landing in one place for long. It's like watching petals in a fey breeze, and it often - as it does now - makes him laugh, helplessly, no matter how serious the tension they break is.]

Right here on the piano bench?

[Paul kisses him before Kaworu can get any ideas about how to answer, swift and merciless. He breaks away only after a thorough quieting, grin tilted.]

Let me take you upstairs first.

["Why not?" was the phrase that the kiss interrupted. Well, there are dozens of reasons why not but Kaworu has little interest in most of them. Thankfully, he does have interesting a kiss that move like a knife, swift and merciless. So very like Paul.

He leans into it and then when they finally tear away he murmurs:]

You had trouble with that last time.

So help me again.

[Paul brushes the tip of his nose against Kaworu's, smile no less pleased after that teasing reminder. He's getting stronger, and he thinks he could lift the smaller boy now, if he wanted to, but that's far from the point.

He adjusts his grip on Kaworu, bracing him for the assisted gliding lightness he anticipates.]

Ready when you are.
