[It just feels... nice, more than anything, to have her here, pushing up next to him, a familiarity he could never place that he desperately needed but couldn't ask for. He had always been chasing a missing something, a hidden comfort he had tried to resolve that he was never getting, that he couldn't make himself vulnerable enough to get. But she's here, and if he hadn't been such an ass, it would be like she had never left. In the end, it's not over, and he doesn't want it to be. They're going to be okay. There's a place for them both, here, and he wouldn't trade that for anything.
The Umbra Staff still lays on the bed, and he shifts it out of the way for her, letting her lay close as he hangs the staff off a hook at the top of the bed. He doesn't need to hold it so close. She's here, and wants him, and they are still, blissfully there.
His smile is peaceful as she looks at him and speaks, expression completely calm. Which is what makes the delivery of the next line so good.]
Magnus ate one of the relics we made and Merle and I had to turn him into a stone slinky to get it out of his ass.
