Thread: Reunited Recap
WHO: Gil & Van
WHEN: After winter break, before classes start again
WHERE: Gil's dorm, Sphinx
As soon as Van got back to campus, he dropped his bags on the floor of his room and went straight to his boyfriend's room. Gil had returned a few hours before him and they hadn't had any chance to talk. The trip to Van's home country had been a whirlwind and he hadn't had any chance to talk to Gil the entire time. Between lack of cellphone signal and being underwater for a lot of it, it just wasn't practical to communicate every day. Which turned into the full break.
Van had confirmed that Gil was back while he was riding in his cab back to the school from the airport. He'd saved any burning questions about Gil's break for when he saw him in person again. Gil was supposed to tell his family that he was gay and wouldn't be marrying a female elf like he was supposed to. Van was anxious to hear how it went. More anxious than he was to tell Gil about his herd in Scotland.
Van didn't bother with knocking when he arrived at Gilderoi's door. He opened the door and scanned the room to spot the elf, his face lighting up when he saw him. "Hullo," he spouted off with a respectable Scottish brogue. "It's been dunky's since a last saw ye." He moved to Gil with his arms outreached to embrace him.
Other than airports and acrylic airline seat cushions, Van smelled vaguely of the lochs of Perthshire. It was a damp and rich earthy smell. His hair had been freshly cut and he wore a piercing on the ridge of one of his ears that matched the metal of his bridle, which hung around his neck as usual.
