I crave touch, yet I flinch every time someone is close enough.

I have become rather fearful I suppose.  (via dollpoetry)

a-wild-yuumi-appeared​:

While it was nice to have someone who was willing to give her affection, it wasn’t quite enough. So, she wiggled around so she was sitting up properly, looking right at him, and meowing softly.

She then lifted her own paw, shakily, and gently patted the top of her head, and then gently bit Aphelios’ hand, not enough to hurt, but enough to cause discomfort, and tried to lift it up, then nuzzling her head under…

Hopefully he got the message– she showed him how to pet her, so he should do it!

It seemed the feline had a completely insatiable desire for comfort and pets. Aphelios watches curiously as his dark eyes following her movements and nodded promptly when his hand is directed in how it ought to be moving. 

His fingers scratch lightly at the top of Yuumi’s head and dances gingerly across her ears. Despite everything he has to say it was somehow comforting for him as well. All but a few minutes under the influence of the feline and he was ready to go to war for her. He smiles faintly. “Better?”

DARKER:  “  every time i touch you, there’s a moment where you look like you think it will hurt. ” “ why aren’t you scared of me?  ”   “  you’d accept a caress from the same hands that leave you bruised, just to feel warm.  ” “  i’ll kill anyone that makes you hurt like that again. i’d kill them just for taking your smile.  ” “  i want to keep you all to myself. i don’t want anyone but us to know the things we do in secret.  ” “  you’re mine now. and i won’t let anyone take you from me.  ” “  would you kill for me?  ” “  i’d cut my heart out and place it in your hands if it would prove my devotion to you.  ”  “  you love me so fiercely. i’m almost afraid of it.  ” “  i know if anyone hurt me, you’d never let them see another day. and i think i like that a little too much.  ” “  i know you’re dangerous, but i also know you won’t hurt me. you bark, and you growl, but you never bite. not me, at least.  ” “  who hurt you? who made you so sad and lonely? tell me so i can make them pay.  ”   “  i don’t like the way they look at you. perhaps i’ll cut their eyes out.  ” “   “  they hurt me. now i want you to make it better. make them hurt too.  ”   “  if anyone lays even a single finger on you, i’ll cut it off and feed it to them.  ” “  yes. i killed them— but i did it for you.  ” “  i had to do it. no one gets to make you sad and get away with it.  ” “  i told you, i’ll love you no matter what. i’ll wipe the blood off your skin. i’ll clean the dirt off your hands from every grave you dig. i don’t care if you’re a monster.  ” “  you should be scared of me. i like that you’re not.  ”   “  don’t you know my love could destroy you?  ”   “  come, sit in my lap and tell me whose blood i should spill tonight.  ”

a-wild-yuumi-appeared​:

As Aphelios scritched that perfect spot right under her chin, she let out a chirp of the purr– then suddenly grabbed his hand, pulling it to her face so she could nuzzle against it, her purr far from ‘quiet’ as she excitedly cuddled his hand. 

Then, she calmed just enough to hold his hand against her face, not fussing or wiggling… Just holding it there.

“Comfy,” she said again, with all the more sleepiness on her voice.

There is a look of mixed marvel and inquisitiveness in his expression as he watches her. How nice it must be to be bold enough to do as you pleased without an ounce of shame. Granted, she had no reason to be ashamed. Aphelios just has a hard time grasping that things could be done solely for one’s pleasure and not for the sake of a greater purpose outside of that. 

He doesn’t move his hand even an inch. He’s more than happy to give her his sole attention. His lips might even quirk up in a reserved smile.

❝   we   cannot    touch    the   moon.   but   its   light   can   touch   us.   shouldn't   that   be   enough?   light,   on   our   fingers.   ❞

[faithplagued]

Yuumi, freely and carelessly, trots right onto Aphelios' lap, pushing anything that was there off, and curling up right there. "Mmm... Comfy."

Aphelios flinches ever so slightly. The movement was barely distinguishable when the cat is suddenly in his lap. Comfy? Was he? Where had she come from? Reserved but curiously his fingers stroke down the soft fur tickling right underneath her chin quite enamored. He didn't mind so much if she found his lap comfortable. She could rest easily with him. “Soft.” He breathes out in a singular syllable.

There is a thoughtful pause. 

The sense of belonging to someone—anything—else resonated deeply. The Lunari’s gaze does not falter. He had known from the start he was disposable but never once had acted on the knowledge. He had done what was expected of him without fault, without fail, and ultimately no matter the personal sacrifice. Even then he could only really blame himself. He had worked himself to the bone, quite literally, until his hands had bled and his heart trampled any residual spitefulness to gain the moon’s favor. 

He was a lesser Lunari than Alune. Although he knew his sister would never say so. He knew the truth. Aphelios knew her better than he knew himself. Therefore he was qualified beyond reason and doubt to put a weight to her worthiness and his lack thereof. His gaze if far-off as he nods. His heart, too, had never really belonged to him. Only this war against the Solari.
