A mug of very hot coffee with a dash of pálinka; unashamedly modern garb--jeans and a turtleneck sweater and a knit scarf; and a seat on the railing of the porch, one leg curled around a white-painted rail to keep his balance; and Sagramore is well-prepared to take what the world is inevitably going to throw at him. It always does.

Zara doesn't even look at him when she goes by, having come to the Mansion for some thing or other that she needed.

[russet_goddess]

She hesitates, taut with anger, and then kisses him, bitter and hard and biting, certainly trying to draw blood from him, certainly hurting.

[le_desirous]

Sagramore eases an arm around her and kisses back, unmindful of the cut in his lip, stroking a little at her short red hair, his hand easy and gentle--a gentle lover, Sagramore, a comforter, to soothe you in your anger, to console you in your pain.

[russet_goddess]

Zara puts her fury in the act of love, always, and now her own hands aren't kind at his back, she digs in her nails, and she keeps kissing until she runs out of breath (that happens far too easily), tearing at him as best she can.

"Better inside," he says against her mouth.

[russet_goddess]

"The hell I care," bitterly, but she does allow herself to be guided into the Mansion, to his room, and guided into bed.

He won't stop being gentle, not at any point. This is, after all, not just any sex--it is grieving sex, it is being-lost sex, and must be treated as so.

Certainly if Zara continues to come to him, or let him go to her, he will not stop offering it.

[russet_goddess]

It's easy for Zara, because she doesn't love him or care about him in the slightest, and he fills Agravain's place but without as many resulting bruises. She's very tired, she's very lonely--Sagramore does well enough.

Hopefully Mordred will not find out about this?

[le_desirous]

Either way it can't be worse than Sagramore/Morgause. XD

[youngandhealthy]

He should stick with Molly. There's no drama whatsoever there, as she doesn't even know the Arthurians besides him. XD

[le_desirous]

Aww. He likes Molly, too!
