- NATE -
Then you're left in the dust, unless I stuck by ya
You're a sunflower, I think your love would be too much
You're a sunflower, I think your love would be too much
It's a fight, more of one than he expects, but they haul a fish out of the ocean together, and he can't help the deep chuckle that leaves him as Clem screams to the heavens. Bright eyes turn to find Sunjata, sparkling with a deep content joy, and his brows rise in surprise when he sees the attuned has also caught a fish, albeit smaller. Not missing a beat, Nate moves to get the big fish off the line, offering it out to Clem to hold as he talks, guiding the younger ascended's hands to the best places to hold. "Big boy here can be the one you take and spread around. You can come back to the house with us, and we'll get it cleaned and divided all nice for you."
He takes a few steps towards Sunjata, hand coming out to wrap around the attuned's hip while he grabs the line with the smaller wriggling fish on it, holding it aloft. "Well, at least we weren't competing." He teases, pulling the other man in to close their circle again, now that there was no worry of tangling lines. "I'll show you how to clean this guy, and we'll get him cooking over a fire here." He offers, wondering if it'll be new for the both of them.
And then after that, the campfire and the feast they'd caught for themselves, a swimming lesson, one orca and two ascendeds, the perfect combination for the ocean. Despite the differences, the cover of night instead of the warmth of day, this is the closest Nate's felt to a real family in a while, and he'd pulled all the pieces together himself. He just hopes it lasts, long enough for him to be able to actually voice those feelings.
