[Exertion rises and falls his chest with panting breaths, Eridanus' verdant gaze settled upon Lucius unblinking, watching him with a predator's interest as the offer remains hanging in the air. He's known his lover long enough now to recognize when something has caught his attentionโthe way his tail flicks, the way his pupils tighten into umbral slits, the way his arms strain with barely contained excitement, and of course, the way his serpentine tongue lolls past his lips like some scenting organ. All of it shivers through his skin, whipping his own tufted tail through the air with a hound's eagerness to please.
And then, his master's answer comes, and before words have even formed in his mind to respond, Eridanus' tip-toing steps carry him forward. That space that Lucius had put between them is shortened in just two long strides, stopping just shy enough that when Eridanus looks down upon his consort, he would be able to feel the heat of each excited pant that left his own, parted lips.]
You would allow me to use your falchion? [He asks, the question redundant as he raises his left handโstill clutching his daggerโand offers the off-handed weapon in return.] I am greatly honored.
