- NATE -
but who am I to say?
let's all just run away
let's all just run away
It's difficult to know just how his answer will be taken considering the state Sunjata is in, between what they'd just done, the alcohol, and the murky darkness all of this had started in. To Nate's relief though, his words seem to be enough, seem to soothe the hesitation, the breath that still hesitates in Sunjata's lungs.
Turning the question around though, undoes everything from before, the ascended stilling because the attuned does, both of them caught for a moment. A moment just long enough for Nate to consider taking it back, before a hand moves down to cup his cheek, and his answer comes. A brow raises in response to the first question, more concerned about the attitude than the answer itself. The rest of it though, brings some life back to the smile on Nate's face, as he leans in to meet Sunjata's kiss in the middle. He is more than happy to let the other man take control for a moment, not stopping him when he pulls away.
He can't leave well enough alone though, has to pick at the answer, concern in those electric blue eyes. "It does still matter." Nate insists softly, a part of him screaming to stop, to quit while he's ahead, while he's got what he wants. "I... don't want you to feel like you owe me for something, I guess. Just because I've been around, or because other things have been shit." that was how he'd gotten into his relationship with Sam, to start with, and look at how that had turned out.
