Summary
"So say that I was to do this, theoretically," his hand moves until it fully covers Kismet's. Valac's face heats up - he could probably fit both of Kismet's hands in one of his own. "And then this," his free arm waves above the piano keys and almost blurs as a mirror image of his palm stays behind. Slowly, it presses translucent fingers, and a simple melody carries in the air. "Then you wouldn't dance with me?"

Summary
"In truth, I never know what's going to babble out of my mouth when you ask me something." He clutches his hands in his lap, the pressure giving him something to focus on. "So yes, sure. You make me nervous." He ends the sentence in a weak mumble. "But not...in a bad way. I don't know."

Summary
He shakes his head, speechless, ignoring the tears that continue to pour down his face. “You should be angry with me, Valac. I learned where you came from and kept my mouth shut. I could have”—his speech is broken by a gasp—“I could have said something. I could have been honest, I could have…”
At last, his words fail him, and he drops his head, resting his forehead against Valac’s sternum.

Summary
He’s aware he should say something, and his mouth is sure trying. Closes and opens several times to no avail. His mind is ablaze. It’s still… Kismet, that’s clear. The same features, the same soft smile. Barely there, tired. But it’s either the way his skin almost blends with Valac’s, the eyes that shine the brightest, or the fact that it’s truly Kismet now, that makes him want to drown in him.
“Hello,” he finally responds after what feels like eternity. “You’re beautiful.”
//
After a long day apart, Valac figures out the missing parts of Kismet.
