[It doesn't feel right to push for more than what the kiss is. Chaste. Careful. But still good, and Alucard feels daring enough to put his free hand against Trevor's cheek until they break apart.
There's pink in his cheeks when they're done (it's the first time any kiss he's had has been one of choice.) He doesn't know what to say or do or anything else, so instead he looks down at their intertwined hands.]
You'll have to tell Sypha that I want to do that to her as well. I suspect you'll remember that.
[ He coils both of his wings around Alucard now, cocooning the both of them against the snow. Neither of them need it but- still, it feels right. Not a cage, just an embrace. ]
[The proximity between them is practically nothing now. He sighs a little, not focused on the warmth but on the sense of safety involved. Because that's what it is now, isn't it? Safety.]
That's what I want.
[No cages at all. And isn't that the greatest show of trust, going down this road?]
[ He hesitates only a little before reaching up with his free hand, twisting a lock of Alucard's hair around a finger slowly. He's- probably allowed to do that now, right? It's going to take a little getting used to, being allowed to touch Alucard like this, but he's not about to complain. ]
Mine. [ No. ] Ours.
[ It doesn't mean anything here. Alucard can't be bound in his own dream. But he's wanted to say it for the longest time. ]
[ In truth, he doesn't know how much longer he has here. Dreams are like the queen's lands, time compressed and expanded until it doesn't resemble reality at all. ]

Until you choose otherwise.

Ours if she'll have it.
[Sypha does need to choose this too.]
It may be limited to dreams. Is that still acceptable?
no subject
[ He releases the lock of hair, content to just look at Alucard in the same way he looks at Sypha, like a moth staring into a flame. ]
I don't know how long it'll take, but as soon as the medicine's safe for humans- be ready to invite her here.
no subject
And in the mean time, you'll tell her?
[Alucard knows the answer is yes. He just wants to hear it out loud.]

I'll tell her the moment I wake.
