Oh, great!

[He'll look closer at his, trying to spot the eagle]

What's a lyre again?

Action; 9/25

[geonomy]

It's a small stringed instrument. [He observes his ring a bit, turning it over and over] Kind of like a harp, but different. You strum it, like you would a guitar, rather than pluck it like a harp.

[And once his examination is over, Clay goes ahead and puts the chain around his neck. He's pretty sure the ring isn't his size, plus people might think it means something more than a promise if he wears it on his finger.]

[Allen will follow suit, putting the ring around his neck. His looks closer to his size, so maybe sometimes he'll switch it up and put it on his hand...but eh. Just follow along with what Clay does for now]

Oh, sounds pretty!

[geonomy]

Yeah! I haven't actually heard it myself, but I liked to look up the constellations and what they represented back at home.

[Because of course he would! With that said, Clay takes a moment to look down at his ring, holding it up by the chain, before he lets it go in favor of resting his hand on Allen's knee.]

Hey, Starlight?

Action; 9/25

[save_the_souls]

[He'll look away from his own ring to look back at Clay.]

Yes, Cowboy?

[He shuts his eyes and lets out a breath, then looks at Allen with a smile.]

Whatever happens to us in the future, if one of us ends up going home, or if we stay together for years... I want you to know that you've given me the best time of my life. I know, I know that I'm living on borrowed time, but you've made every second worth it. You've made me so happy, Starlight.

[He shifts a bit as his other hand comes up, enough to hold Allen's cheek]

I really think you're that "one" that people like to talk about. And no matter what happens, I'll never, ever regret any moment that I've spent with you.

[The words catch him by surprise. Not because of the loving tone. No, Clay's always been affectionate and open about his feelings. Every time they talked, they made sure to exchange "I love you's" at least once, even if it's just as a goodbye.

But hearing that Clay sees him as "the one", that he's given him the best time in his life? Allen's...never really heard that before from someone. He was always coming in second, usually as a replacement to someone else they cared about more. But to hear otherwise? Especially from someone who he loved more than he thought you could love someone?

He ends up smiling, reaching out to touch Clay's own cheek. There's tears in his eyes, but they are the happy sort]

Oh, Clay...I feel the same way. The luckiest thing that's ever happened to me is meeting you.

Action; 9/25

[He lets out a huff of a laugh, an affectionate sounding one, as he strokes Allen's cheekbone with his thumb. Rather than answer that with words, Clay leans in to kiss him, the hand on his knee moving to be against his waist instead.

Yeah... he feels that way and more.]
