[Percy leans in to kiss Vex deeply in return lifting his arms so she can undress him..]

And I do so enjoy going insane for you...but mostly I enjoy sleeping beside you and I have so missed that dear.

[She has him undressed and thoroughly kissed before she shoves him playfully to the bed. Instead of climbing on top of him and having her way with his body, Vex takes her hair out of the usual braid she wears, shakes it out and curls up with her head on his shoulder. They're both naked and she is soaking up the heat from his still sleep-warmed body.

There's a power in knowing that she could do whatever she wanted and he would let her and be an avid participant, but letting the closeness, the intimacy of this moment sink in. They both need the reassurance that they're back together. This is one of many reunions she's faced since the time she would herself falling into the strange lands of Folkmore as a star. And, well, Percy has never done well with being separated from those he loves.]

I would be lying if I said that it's not the moments like this that I love. I mean, our sex life is active and varied, but you're more than just a warm body in my bed.

[She could fall asleep like this, certainly, but she's a bit curious as to how he will react now that she's here, naked, and was mean enough to get him riled up. It's the thrill that she has to have that keeps their marriage from ever getting stale.]

[Percy is both not surprised and surprised at Vex's actions. This is what he has been missing since she's been gone. The quiet moments that make the emotional struggles and physical battles worth it. Just having his wife beside him in bed soothes his agitated mind and reminds him he is more than his work and his nightmares. The others tried their best, but this, Vex beside him, his hand tangled gently in her hair is what he needed. He could spend the rest of the night like this and be more than happy even if other parts of him want to complain about it.]

I would hope so dear or I spent far too much time making our wedding rings if I'm not.

[While the words carry his normal amount of snark, the heat is not behind it. His voice is soft and quiet and he is smiling as he strokes her hair. This is Percy De Rolo at peace, a thing few get to see.]

[She wants and needs as much skin-to-skin contact with this lovely, infuriating, intelligent idiot of a man. He is a great deal of her world now, and she knows that she'd be a mess without him. She has been a mess without him. And it's a little satisfying to know that he is the same about her.

As he starts to stroke her hair, Vex trails her fingernails down his throat, loving the feel of his fine stubble on her skin. It's a fucking wonderful moment. One they don't really luxuriate in quite as much as they should.]

I mean, you'd still be my husband. Are you saying you don't enjoy the fact that you are my boy toy as well? Do you want more out of our relationship than sex and passion? How dare you demand so much from me.

[She punctuates her little speech with a soft press of her lips to his rough cheek as she runs her fingers down his throat.]

How dare you expect love and sex in our relationship, darling.

[Percy had been more than a mess. The memory of watching in horror as Silas tossed Vex off the cliff where they had been about to celebrate with friends was still fresh and he'd been gripped with terror that she had returned to that moment and died. He chuckles though his voice growing husky.]

I am a selfish man dear...and when it comes to you I want it all whatever form that might take.

[He is growing his beard out more here and he enjoys the feeling of fingers running through the stubble.]

[She still hasn't heard the story of why he's been closer to her since he arrived in Somnius, but she wasn't really in a position to fight it since she'd missed him so fucking much. They need one another too much, but she doesn't care about that either. It's not going to change. Not if she has anything to say about it.]

It's about damned time you were a bit more selfish. You're allowed to be as selfish about me as you want.

[When has she ever had anyone to be jealous over her or her time? Percy is the first, and, well, she is still sometimes that scared, scarred, disappointed, insecure girl who left Syngorn all those years ago.]

I like it.

[He knows he should tell everyone....but he's been struggling to admit his past still isn't as dead as he thought. He feels responsible for Silas' return and knowing Vex will be harmed as a result.}

And I am.....I would do anything to keep you by my side.

[He chuckles]

Good...I've been told by Cassandra it looks foolish, but your opinion truly matters.

[Well, she's sure that if Percy won't tell her what is on his mind, she can ask Pike. The cleric is the only other person that she can think of that would even half-guess what's on her husband's mind. Pike has a special relationship with each and every member of Vox Machina, with good reason. And, let's be honest, Vex'ahlia would do anything to make sure that her husband stays sane and healthy.]

Anything, hm? And just want are you willing to do right now, Percy?

[She sits up and looks at her husband.]

And you care as much about what Cassandra thinks about your looks as Vax does me about his. You're handsome. And you're mine. That's all that matters.

[He turns toward her and and leans in for another deep kiss.]

I would very much like to ravage you until you are a loose relaxed mess if that is alright dear? I so do enjoy turning you into a puddle for a change.

[He smiles at her]

And you are mine come hell or highwater and that will not change either.

[Vex is only too happy to return his kiss. She'll never get enough of this man. Ever. At his response, she can't help but chuckle darkly.]

Only a mad woman would refuse such a request. I'm not quite there yet, so I suppose I'll have to say yes.

[She flops onto the bed on her back, arms and legs spread a bit.]

I'm yours, Percy. Never doubt that.

[He kisses her again and his hands start stroking down her side.]

I never have......and I never will. I trust you Vex.

[Vex takes in a stuttery, hot breath before sighing comfortably.]

Percival, if you don't make good on your promise, I will be forced to take charge. We'll both enjoy it, but not as much as if you were to do so.
