Fin

[willysilver]

The night was young and the bar had been packed. Willy had not played, he'd only been there with Fin to enjoy the band. But the crowd was thick and Willy was a bit tipsy on white Russians and he dragged Fin out of the bar and into the night.

"Mmm, my love, what do you wish?" he asked, Fin's hands in his own. He pulled him close and kissed him, lips then brow. "I will give you your grandest desire, you need but ask."

Hardly a new offer- they both knew Fin's flights of fancy were Willy's pleasure to fulfil.

"God- You are... You are so bloody old," Fin said, looking both sheepish, and stunned. "I must look so small to you. Practically a bloody newborn."

[willysilver]

"Every year spring brings new life and in the course of a season things live and die. Fruits ripen and are harvested. You have years, Fin. A mortal lifetime- and more than that now since I tampered with your heart. You are hardly a newborn, but I do love what a breath of fresh air you are," Willy replied warmly.

[prince_of_nymphs]

"You talk utter nonsense, Willy Silver," Fin teased gently.

[willysilver]

"Surely I do not," Willy chuckled. "And even if it is so, you are charmed by it, do not deny it," he said,

[prince_of_nymphs]

"I'm charmed by you, Willy. Everything you have to offer," Fin replied softly.

[willysilver]

"To say such a thing is the sweetest compliment...and it is sure true in reverse. You have charmed me, Fin. You have enchanted me and I am so dreadfully in love with you," he said as he glided against the young man and pushed him up against a wall so he could kiss him briefly.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin couldn't see it coming, and let out a startled noise as he hit the wall.

"Oi! Warn me before you do that," he laughed softly.

[willysilver]

Willy pressed him into place with the solid weight of his body. Hands skimmed his sides and Willy brushed his lips along the man's jaw.

"Did I startle you, precious? A thousand apologies..."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"I can't see you coming is all," Fin laughed softly.

[willysilver]

"Should I make a noise? A shhh..." he said, the sound getting louder as he got closer and kissed Fin soundly.

"Or a zzz..." he whispered, his hands coming up to touch his face.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin giggled, playfully pushing Willy back with a smile. "Wanker," he accused gently.

[willysilver]

Willy laughed well and true and nuzzled in against Fin's neck.

"Oh, I do love you, my precious," he said. "But this is not getting us to my chambers..."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"Mmm, right, sorry. Lead the way, my prince," Fin laughed.

[willysilver]

Willy stole one more kiss, utterly charmed by Fin, then lead him along through the city streets. They approached a cathedral and Willy took Fin through the grounds to an outbuilding. The arched doorway lay in shadow, thick vines twining up around it.

"Here we are," he said, passing his hand over the doorway. Then he took hold of the handle and opened the door. Inside was no dank little storage area- instead it opened into a dim but oppulant chamber with glittering gems and gossamer drapes. It smelled sweet like fresh fruit. As they stepped through candles lit themselves.

"Come into my room," he said softly.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin held Willy's arm, not wanting to trip or fall in an unfamiliar space.

"It smells lovely... Tell me what it looks like, Willy. Tell me everything I can't see," he begged softly.

[willysilver]

"Then camber is large with high, vaulted ceilings. Tapestries hang from the walls to offer a bit of warmth. There are sconces every little bit offering a cheerful flame to illuminate the room. ANd here..." he said, leading Fin forward, "...Is the hearth."

It sprang to life, immediately warm and welcoming.

"From here the bed is behind us. It is draped with fine green bedding. Plush pillows. A canopy of gossamer to keep away bugs and sprites. And there is decor- mostly from my childhood. I have playsets of soldiers. Chess. A game of glass orbs..."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"It sounds beautiful, Will," Fin said softly. "I wish I could see it."

Holding his hands out, he let the fire warm them, his heart aching at the realization that there were so many wonders in Willy's world that he'd never lay eyes on now.

[willysilver]

A wish. A direct wish. That gave Willy all kinds of leeway.

"Of course. As you wish," he said, then touched Fin's forehead. In the man;s mind appeared as if it were a memory the image of the room from Willy's perspective. It was hardly seeing. More like remembering.

But it was something, no matter how brief.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin gasped, shocked by how vivid it all was. It was strange, like remembering someone else's dream, but he took it all in, memorizing it and making it his own.

"I forget sometimes... That you- You're, you know, magic."

[willysilver]

"You forget? How flattering," Willy smiled. "I like that. To be thought of as...ordinary. But did you like it? Did it work well?"

[prince_of_nymphs]

"It was strange, but it worked, I think," Fin smiled. "Thank you, Willy."

[willysilver]

"If I can't make you see then at least I can, from time to time, share my sight with you. It is...not easy. I cannot do it often, but...sometimes," he said, hands stroking Fin's arms and sides and face. He could never get enough of touching the smaller man.

[prince_of_nymphs]

"You're generous, Will- Just promise me you'll not do anything that proves to be too hard on you," Fin said gently.

[willysilver]

"I will promise, though I would have you know I would use the very last of my power to please you. Keep you safe. I would cease to be if it would mean you would live," Willy replied gravely.

[prince_of_nymphs]

"Don't say that," Fin said, growing serious as his tone went from soft to scolding. "Don't ever say things like that, Will. I don't want to exist without you."
