Re: [Manor: Damian & Misha]
[There were advantages and disadvantages to both being open and being closed off. Perhaps much would have been easier for Misha when he was younger, if he had been able to not express what he felt. Much would have been easier for Damian as an adult, if he was able to express what he felt without subsuming his own emotions and treating them with morphine. Even now, he was fighting himself, though he knew Misha would not think any less of him should he emote. But, even with the consistent psychotherapy, it was an ingrained behavior.
Damian sniffled as Misha pulled back, and he allowed the boy his various ministrations. He rubbed at an eye with his free hand and returned his cigarette back to its place between his lips. He smiled slightly at the angel's teasing.] If you are quick, perhaps.
