Ariel just made an 'mmm' sound like a sick child and snuggled up against Amadeus with his eyes closed. Being shot took a lot out of a person - Kindred or kine. It was a wholly unpleasant experience and he felt like he'd been bleeding for ages. He wanted to sleep but it was too early for that. Alright, so he really did need to feed to recoup some of that energy but who could be arsed when they felt like he did?
"Hmm...?" he opened his eyes to peer up. What was bothering Amadeus? But he was drifting again already. Still, he managed a simple smile and a muttered, "Love you." As if somehow that would fix every problem in the world. Simple words but even the beast-tainted side of Ariel meant it. Amadeus belonged to him - all of him.
