There would be no disguising the adoration in his eyes as he gazed at him, and he wouldn't want to. Let Essek understand that even without all the memories of the life he'd lived before, even with that piece of himself locked away by a spell that Bren wasn't fully aware of, his soul knew that he loved this man, that it was such a fundamental truth that his entire body resonated with it.
He was silenced by the pressure of that finger against his lips, and he would have protested.]
Together then. We will protect each other.
[That would be enough for him, to be allowed to look out for Essek too. Essek had already saved him -- from Ikithon, from himself, from so much.]
Good. I would like to go with you, wherever it is where you need to go.
