Summary: Delphyne’s asleep, and Amadeus, as always, is thinking.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Notes: Eeeh. Lets just pretend that this takes place far in our heroes’ future. And that Delphyne is no longer queen of the Amazons.
Delphyne’s asleep, and Amadeus knows this for sure because the writhing mass of snakes that make up her hair have finally settled down, and are curled up around each other. She sleeps on her stomach, with her face towards Amadeus and her back exposed, letting him get a good look at the scars there. The worst looking one is where she was attacked by Atrume, right where her heart would have been if she were human.
Amadeus knows that it’s actually a lot closer to the center and up a bit. He’s heard it beating.
She squirms a little, but doesn’t wake up as Amadeus drapes himself across her, on ear pressed to her back. She’s warm, and her skin is surprisingly soft.
