[ yves likes all physical affection but that's because he's easy. even as he idly keeps playing with claude's hair, he hums thoughtfully ]
Well... I want to believe the angels will find the souls we're looking for.
Everyone is going to have heavy hearts tonight, for one reason or another... but we do have to keep going. So I'd rather believe that everything will be fine in the end, rather than not.
[ help! yves laughs and lifts himself up just enough so that he can see claude's expression easier ]
You are special to me.
[ imagine not being embarrassed to say this so plainly while cuddling with your straight pal under the stars on the beach ]
But that's true whether you're working hard or enjoying a break or taking a well-earned nap. It's not based on effort, though I do admire your work ethic.

"It'll be fine"... a strange attitude to have after days like this.

[ to a degree he does think it suits claude ]
But if you ever want a warm home to curl up in or to steal food scraps from, my door's always open for a visit.

[ Man, what is that like. ]
I can't say it doesn't sound nice.

Then there you go. Stray and explore as far as you'd like, kitty Claude, but there'll always be a loving place waiting for you.
The least you deserve, after how hard you work.
no subject
I don't know that I work any harder than anyone else here.
no subject
Do you have to?

It's awkward, and he isn't sure how to respond... ]
... Thanks, Yves.

What's that face for? Weren't you clearly fishing for praise?
no subject
I was harassing you more than I was fishing for compliments.

You could always try to get some sleep for real. I can wake you in a while.
no subject
That said, a nap... ]
I wouldn't be opposed to dozing off.
no subject
Then go ahead and rest. I'll wake you later so we can go back to the mansion.
