A Perfectly Ordinary Conversation

Summary:

No it’s really just a normal conversation. Nothing special happening here.

Notes:

I wanted to try writing something with only dialogue, but where you could (hopefully) almost feel/see the characters in the room.

And. Well. This happened. Wasn’t planned. I lost control of Essek. (I’m sure it happens to everyone)

Work Text:

“It’s not your pretty red hair…”

“It’s not?”

“No. It’s not your delightfully blue eyes...”

“I am pretty confident it is a little bit those things?”

“Shush d’anthe. It’s not your beautiful hands, your long fingers…”

“Ha!”

“It’s not that hunger for learning, the skill with magic, the beauty and originality you bring to your casting.”

“Liebling…”

“I said shush. It’s not all that body hair…”

“I know you like that.”

“Caleb… It’s not even how you bring out the better person in me and all the ways you love me.”

“Do you even love me at all mein liebster?”

“It is, in fact, the way you love with your whole heart so openly. It’s the way you approach everything you do with such care. It’s the way you do not know how deeply good you are.

“Oh süsse…”

“It’s your infinite generosity. It’s your selflessness.”

“Well that is not true.”

“It’s how sweet, tender, emotional, intense, and so so beautifully soft you are. But with the capacity for such chaos, passion, ferocity, that almost crazed look you get in your eye, and the wild and free laughter. I live for the dichotomy, for somewhere in between those two places, there you are, and there is my home.”

“Essek you forgot my dick.”

“Caleb Widogast will you stop it. I’m attempting to propose to you and you are making it increasingly difficult.”

“Oh!”

“Are you going to behave?”

“Ja. You are really…?”

“Yes if you’ll let me.”

“Essek…”

“Shhh. Just let me get this out.”

“Sorry.”

“Caleb I… you made me forget where I was up to.”

“Somewhere in between those two places, there you are, and there is my home…”

“Yes. Thank you. I love all these things. Yes your dick too. Oh by the light Caleb Widogast just marry me won’t you?”

“Of course. I mean yes.”

“Stop grinning like that and just kiss me.”
