Ask

Summary:

“Whatever you need, you have only to ask.”

From Gale, to Astarion.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

 

you, with your scarlet eyes

and a smile like a knife to the throat

my love, you put the stars to shame

and I can only hope to bask in your glow

for however long you will allow me to

and if you ask me to go, I will go

I will go home to my tower, to my city

and I will spend the rest of my days

remembering your hands against my skin

and that smile against my neck

but if you ask me to stay I will stay

and I will damn the ever-burning sun

I will close the curtains and bar the doors

if you would only ask

all you ever had to do was ask

 

Notes:

Who needs sleep when you can write poetry about a wizard and a vampire being in love??

(Me. It was me. I regretted this decision the next morning.)

But hey, at least I got something cool out of it!
