[Again, it's the opposite for Eddie. It doesn't feel stupid, it feels like a relief. Like there was some sort of weight, some kind of environmental pressure holding him down, making it hard to breathe, and it's lifting a little. Had been since Taako got him out of the elevator. He's not really sure what to make of it, all he knows right now is that it feels good. And surreal. Definitely surreal.
When Taako laughs and says they make a fucking pair, Eddie smiles, but he can't laugh, any sound chokes off in his throat, and unconsciously the hand that's not touching Taako's lifts to his chest, the fingertips brushing over where the scar is.]
Yeah.
[Taako's hand turns, and he brushes his fingertips over the elf's palm, tracing the lines of it almost idly. When Taako says it sucks, he finally manages a laugh.]
Yeah. Yeah it definitely does. [He exhales, hard and a little rough.] And I really wasn't expecting to have to deal with the fallout.
