[Aether can probably both see and feel how the blush on Heizou's face deepens at his words, warmth practically radiating from his face. He's quiet for just a moment, busy studying the look that Aether is giving him right now. But it would be selfish of him to interpret any of it as being anything but platonic, wouldn't it? After all, the Traveler is so good to all of his friends. All of them are precious to him in their own ways. It's one of the things Heizou likes about him.]

Then it's kind of you to indulge me this way~

[He doesn't want to push or overstep. But at the very least Heizou's definitely starting to enjoy hiding away under the blankets with Aether, so he finally lets himself settle. Lets himself bask in Aether's warmth and scent and kindness. It's selfish, yes, but he wants this moment to be all for him.]

...I guess it is pretty nice in here. Maybe we can stay like this for just a few more minutes?
