I... I have to admit I'm still surprised by that. [Exhaling a soft laugh, the blond strokes a thumb along Dohalim's cheek.] To think, I was sure there was no chance, even back home...
[not even speaking socially, really. There was their positions to consider, but it's never been what kept Gepard quiet. It would just be trouble, especially with his job being what it is... but it really does feel different in Menancia. Like he could just... be, a little.
At his question, Gepard can feel that flush returning in force. Does he have to name it again...? He'll get used to that embarrassment eventually. Probably.]
... I'm sure, Dohalim. I want to... I'll give you anything I can. Myself is certainly included.
[There's some lingering nervousness for him, but he covers it well enough. This time he really has to rely on Dohalim's lead, after all.]
