Summary
How can Thomas and Vincent travel to a relationship, when they have no language or experience to make it happen? Lust can only get you so far, other things need to be settled. Perhaps Thomas' anxiety was warranted. But Vincent had never felt like this before.

"And then, given that you... how did you...?"
"How did I keep my vows?"
Vincent nodded a small measured movement. His hands were clasped softly in his lap.
Lawrence stuttered. "It-it's gonna sound childish."
"Don't say that. I want to know."
Lawrence sighed. "I used to see myself as a... knight...A warrior knight, alone in my path, above all. My purpose was held by my vows. So. It wasn't really difficult for me, even if I knew what Desire was."
Vincent put a hand on his own cheek, "That's so charming…”
Lawrence smiled, eyelids heavy. He thought so too. That's why that thought held him through dark times. He was glad Vincent saw it that way. He felt seen.
“Though one is never truly alone in a brotherhood,” Vincent continued, smiling cheekily.
