Summary
"Would you want to?"
Orion shifted his attention to where Granson stood, blinking a little wider at the expression he found hung against the other man's face. Nerves. Teenage, almost. As if Granson had stolen something from his father's liquor shelf and brought it for them to play fast and loose with. Except the alcohol in question was one he had never tasted. Orion knew what it was like to be with men, he knew all things considered he preferred it, but that wasn't the case for Granson.
His board sat rather clean of that concept and now he desired to hesitantly draw on it with Orion's hand over his.
"That's not the question you should be asking," Orion replied, brows raised slightly with the corner of his mouth. "A better, more apt question would be: when would you want to? Because I want to. I've wanted to for a while… but I've been glad going with you as you feel things out—so to speak."
Granson's expression stayed fixed in a nervous sort of half-smile. "That's a yes?"

Summary
"And just how did you come across these?"
Orion glanced up from his cutting board to the corner of his eyes to where Granson stood. He was properly far away, leaving the ample space demanded by Orion early on when he first started staying over. Kitchens were for cooking not for cuddling. A rule best followed by any unless they wanted Orion himself simmering on medium to high heat.
Peeling another peach carefully, he knocked his head to the side as if he could actually direct Granson to the answer. "Vendor brought a case and a half to the stairs and Glynard told me to make use of them. So, I am."
Orion gets several sweet surprises at once.

Summary
It is a scene Granson was certain would never arrive, yet here and now, it has. Orion is knelt before him, panting out in weakened breath as his skin grows paler by the second. Sun beats down on them both, light again poured out into it yet there is no warmth on his shoulders. There is only a cold, sinking feeling and a churn of nausea he can barely keep down in his stomach.
The promise rings out in his ears, heavy and resounding like a gong beat over and over: You leave this world yourself, Rho. You leave me as you.
Granson fulfills a promise.

Summary
It was not uncommon, this.
Orion, awake at the wee hours of a day long turned to night, head laid on a pillow across from another that was asleep. The only difference being that this time, this person, felt different to him. Not in any one good or bad way, but at the moment, the lingering in that middle was making his stomach toss like rough seas.
Granson didn't know the truth of him. A truth Orion was encouraged not to give as it may do more harm than good to break the constraints of the known universe for the average person. When the Exarch gave him this heeded warning, he had brushed it off with ease. Who would he tell, after all. Who couldn't he lie to?
A soft breath from Granson's nose grew a little louder in its inhale, snore only a fraction of what the man could be capable of, and Orion felt the question hammer into the back of his skull. If he could lie to Granson, he could lie to anyone. The trouble was that it was the last thing he wanted to do.
Orion tells Granson where he's from.

Summary
It wasn't a guise to return to the First so soon after departing it—not in totality, at least.
After all, things were not yet remedied in the empty nor with Gaia herself. There was worry there, underlying against the other work clearly waiting on the Source due to the Telophoroi's touch, and Orion was managing it best he could. It could be said then that what he was presently concerned with should not have been on his mind at all. A gift of sorts—if one reduced its definition to a distilled point more bitter than the highest grade of alcohol—was his current focus and would remain his focus until the new owner could claim it as his possession.
Orion gives Granson a piece of himself.
