PETER
“It was before.” A hand lifts to gesture loosely, Pet all but reeling himself closer to Adam, the drifting unintentional. “With uh… with Maea. Before… y’know.” Zariah was a hard subject to think on, those memories sitting in a dark corner of his mind and shrieking when he turned towards them. Easier to avoid.
Melancholy drags at his limbs for a long moment, Pet watching Adam move without quite being able to move to join him. He blinks like he’s surprised when his hand is grabbed, like he hadn’t watched every step the other man took to get here. The press of lips soothes life back into the digits, the smile that Pet offers back small and shy.
Tidying, despite everything, is something Peter is decently good at. “I’m glad you… you like it.” His voice matches the smile, even if Pet is suddenly more animated, sneaking under Adam’s arm and past him to grab a broom and a handful of other cleaning supplies, rags and scrub brushes in a bucket. “Just sweep and dust?” The broom is offered out towards the other man while Pet considers the bucket. It would be easiest to get water now, but… if he doesn’t have to, he doesn’t want to.
