Of course not. It...it never was out of that I assure you. If-if it were to happen it certainly wouldn't be because of-of obligation. I-I enjoy your company and it's certainly not because of obligation. We've sh-shared so much together and I do love our time together too whether it be locked in a shrine or-or not. [ He smiles. ]
And isn't that what, um, l-love is about anyway? Sharing moments and times like this with someone you cherish? [ The sexual aspect was another part of it, but Helios doesn't really see that as a requirement for such things. Love was something more than just physical attraction and he and Max had always had a...connection of sorts from the moment they met. And it's not as if that haven't already slept together before. Helios' face flushes as he tries to drown it out with another long sip of beer at that thought. And oh is Max really saying what Helios thinks he's saying? Well of course he would, he was head over heels in love with him wasn't he? It was something like the situation with Robert back all those years ago and he never took initiative because he never believed himself to be worth it. Max was like Robert in that he didn't care about the lack of reciprocation and that it was fine the way they were. Helios can accept that now, especially since he's learned to move on and that it's alright to do so. And that this is...perfectly okay the way they are. ]
Max. I. I think what I-I'm trying to say is... [ oh my gosh how does he even say this? It's been so long and he is so terribly out of practice. He's just going to fumble with his words for a moment okay? ] Is that I'm...ah.
[ He's never been good at this who is he kidding? He's terrible at this actually, another reason why he never really tried to go for this sort of thing. He might look more than a tad bit embarrassed now. ]
