<p>“There’s still a lot we need to do in here, so we can’t drag everything in yet,” the weasel explained as they returned to where his boyfriend’s goods were stored under a canvas tarp. “But getting a few essentials in here will help in meantime. Hopefully just a few more days and we’ll be all set again. I think E.W. may kick me out at that point.”</p>

<p>“I think that made me think of it because until this point, it’s all been happening at one layer of remove for me. She’s my friend and I like her as such, but she’s not my cocladist or coworker. I’m not in a relationship with her. None of this has been happening with her as someone I’m super close to.”</p>

<p>“But if I merge down, she will remember having been in a relationship with you.”</p>

<p>They lay in silence for a bit. Ey didn’t know what May was thinking about, but ey kept cycling over just how much ey and eir partner had shared over the last few months alone, all those little bits of affection and physicality when True Name had expressed on more than one occasion that such wasn’t for her, all the private conversations they’d shared with the understanding that they’d remain such.</p>
|

|
<p>“I will admit that I have been thinking about it,” she said, then lifted her snout to dot her nose on the underside eir chin. “But after the last few days and coming to terms with what that would actually mean for her, I am feeling much more cautious about the prospect.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“Okay,” ey said carefully, not wanting to jostle her snout too much. “Can we make sure to talk about it more if you do decide to?”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“Of course, my dear. You and I never shut up.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“Mmhm, best that way,” ey murmured, then added more seriously, “I mean the three of us, though.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“We will, Ioan. It would be unfair to all of us not to.” May lowered her snout again and tightened her grip around eir middle. “Do you want me not to? You are allowed to say yes.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Ey sighed and placed a kiss atop her head. “I don’t know, May. I need way more time to think on it.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>She nodded. “I will give you all the time in the world.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“Thanks, May.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>They settled in for sleep, letting the topic drop and trusting that there would be time enough to discuss it, just focusing on closeness and comfort.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“Ioan?”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“Mm?” Ey’d nearly dozed off, and could even still feel sleep tugging at em.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“I love you. You know that, right?”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>“‘Course I do. I love you too, May.”</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>That, at least, made for pleasant dreams.</p>
