[He tilts his head to the side as Kravitz' fingers find their way to the perfect place, another connection Taako didn't need to say for the other man to just get. It feels like he's known him no time and all time, like it's been days and weeks and years all in one. He can't explain it. He can't fucking explain any of it. It's a little infuriating, actually.

Taako sighs, taking a few moments just to feel the rise and fall of his own chest, a slow blink as he tries to take in the words Kravitz says as truth.]

[Great. Good. Wonderful start.]

It's not really like-- it's not a thing, I just feel stupid just saying it? Like you're probably expecting this to be something, and maybe you're gonna be pissed when this is over and I wasted your time? But like, listen, it's something. Sort of. Fuck.

[He falls silent again, almost certain Kravitz can hear his heartbeat by now with the way it's clogging his ears.]

... You know it's been like a year, right? Since you got here?
