Summary
“What conclusion have you come up with?”
“Human custom would point to love,” Flins notes. Varka will laugh it off easily enough. Flins will suffer a moment of embarrassment, and it won’t matter at the end of the night. But his teeth ache and something stirs in his stomach, pulling at him, whispering something that sounds unfairly like mine.
A low, soft hum. “And what of the fae?” Varka asks.

"Are you always this reckless?"
Varka can do nothing but grin. "Believe it or not, dear Lightkeeper, but this is me having grown out of my reckless phase."

Summary
In the end, perhaps Varka found himself in this predicament by underestimating Flins. He shouldn't have. It is far from the first time the Lightkeeper has flipped the script on him.
So Varka stares, bewildered, as the most beautiful man in the room gives invaluable insight to the meeting, while keeping his hand on him like it’s nothing.
Varka’s nails dig into his palm. He’s survived far more difficult situations than this one, hasn’t he?
- or, time and place matter. In theory.

Bookmarker's Notes
What the Wanderer wants is to see her flourish: to thrive. He wants to take everything she does that makes him feel wanted and cradle it to his chest, take it and carry it around in his pocket. And if the time comes to part their ways, he will let her go, like releasing a little boat towards the ocean, with the hope that he has left her better off than she was never having met him.
