While dinner was behind them now, Orion's hunger was not. The thing he craved now as dessert was something he had in mind for quite some time now, but he had yet to broach the subject when the two of them weren't really much of anything and far from physical. Now that those walls had been kicked at with force, he was eager to tear down the rest.
Granson's hand squeezed his and Orion's ears flicked in recognition before looking up at him. "Yes?"
"Thinkin' real hard again in there," Granson said, words hushed so only to have them fall between, "You said you had something for after dinner. Care to let me in on it?"
"Patience," Orion chided and his lips curled back to reveal sharp teeth as if he were about to pounce on his prey. In a way, he was. "Get inside first, will ye?"
Granson held up his hands in defense as Orion pulled the door open and stepped through as if he were being led as a hostage. The image of which made Orion's tail flick a little faster before settling in a more nervous curl against his leg. Door shut behind them, he rested against the green wood grain and looked over the sight before him with a slow breath taken in. Gods, he was something.
"Alright. We're inside, alone, what have ye. Going to keep me in much suspense or make me guess?" Granson asked, arms tucking across his chest. It pulled at his collar, forcing a better view of the hair that rested on his chest to poke through the laces. "Orion."
