[hearing those words pulls a warm smile from Melqal, humming softly. if it were any other time, he'd tease the other enough to wind him up before stopping, just to see and hear how desperate Morax would be for his touch, but right now, he isn't so inclined to let go of him just yet. he knows they should stop for the moment, as someone would be around to start dressing Dohalim down for the night (he still won't get over how ridiculous the il Qaras regalia has become; he supposes he should have put a stop to that in one of his previous incarnations), but... he just can't let go of Morax.

so he doesn't stop teasing the spirit, as he gently tugs at the tail. hearing Morax's devotion to him, and fully knowing his devotion to the elemental is just as deep, it blooms warmth in his heart knowing that their love had transcended even time itself. aside from Dohalim, if his and Morax's relationship develops into something like that, Melqal isn't so inclined in sharing his lover with anyone else (despite making several jokes about it in their past); it brings him so much joy knowing that this astral spirit is his. possessive as it may be, again, he knows Morax has the same thoughts. and really, it's not like he minds the other being so possessive over hi, either]

Mm, I'm glad that I am the only one who is allowed to. I would hate for someone else to be able to shake you so easily like I can. I find myself... Not wanting those who cannot appreciate you to see you at your most vulnerable.

But... That is to say, I would not want anyone else to see how vulnerable you make me when like this. This is only for you, my love.
