Work Text:
Dust settles around them in the silence after the chaos. Weary bodies lean on each other for support. Injured parties limp away nursing wounds that will be healed in the coming weeks and months. Allies lean on allies, some argue, others mourn, and others still find solace in each other.
Bloodied and injured, but not majorly, Emmrich lets his dearest lean against him as they rest in the aftermath. Viago snores slightly, fully relaxed against him after so long. It’s a sight to see. One that he’ll remember for years to come.
Emmrich’s tired himself. He’s not going to be moving for a while yet. It’s safe here, with allies and friends abound. With a soft smile, Emmrich closes his eyes and lets himself lean further into his beloved. A short nap won’t hurt.
