“ i am not that man. i have never been that man. ” ( from ross! ) @kessenyans — sent from this prompt (x) still accepting!

her brow creases, furrowing at his words. he sits on their end of their martial bad, half-clothed, having paused in his de-robing to speak to her. ‘ ross... ’ she moves to him, settling her hand on his cheek in an effort to turn his head so that she can look him in the eye. it's always better when they're connected like that, when she can see those thoughts swirling behind his eyes like a storm just off the coast. ‘ think you i care what man 'ee be? all's i care about is that i have my husband here, home, and safe. i don't ask for nothin' more'n that. ’

all she wants is her home to be secure, for her life with him to be one that doesn't cause her strife, yet more and more it seems as if things aren't going to work out that way. ‘ you don't have to try'n be somethin' you're not. not with me. ’ surely he's noticed too? surely that's the cause for this maudlin mood that strikes him?
