tune

He didn’t really believe it, not at all. But he appreciated the gentle touches, managing to relax just slightly.

Astral was glad when he felt Simon relax, continuing with the gentle touches. He let out a small hum, thinking for a moment. His finger went to Simon's cheek, and in a moment he was full size, sitting in Astral's lap. Astral held Simon close still, resting his chin on Simon's shoulder.

Being back to full size actually helped some, Astral’s hold felt less restricting now. And he could actually enjoy this if he pretended this was anyone but Astral. But that was way too risky so he wouldn’t do it.

Astral picked up rubbing Simon's back, humming a small tune. He let his eyes close, relaxing. This was nice…

Simon let his own eyes slide shut after a few moments. He didn’t necessarily like this….but at the same time it was free affection and he wouldn’t turn that down.

Simon would be getting plenty of 'free' affection from Astral. He had given his soul up already, after all, and his body had been taken.
All Astral needed now was his mind.

And there was a very high likelihood that it would get much less enjoyable, and come at a higher price of what he needed to give Astral first. But for now, this was good.

It was. Astral moved his head so the bridge of his nose was resting against Simon's shoulder instead of his chin digging in, letting out a small breath. His arms were wrapped gently around Simon, letting him move and have some freedom. Who knew how long it would last?

Simon doubted it’d last for long, which was why he was doing his best to enjoy what he was being given right now. This..this really did feel nice.

Astral smiled softly, relaxed. He could fool himself into thinking Simon really loved him for the time. He let out a happy hum, rubbing small circles against the small of Simon's back.

((Astral you’re one to talk lmao))

It helped with the tension, Simon’s muscles relaxing under Astral’s touch. He stayed quiet the whole time, trying not to accidentally do something that’d make Astral upset.

There was wasn't much Simon could do to make Astral upset at the moment besides trying to leave. The god was glad to feel Simon relax, continuing with the motion.

Simon actually did like this. And he hated that. He shouldn’t like this, not when it was from Astral. But his body seemed to not line up with his mind on that opinion, as he felt himself grow more relaxed.

Astral could tell. He knew how much Simon liked this, and it just made him smile. The god let his eyes close, moving to rub more of Simon's back. Such a good feeling, holding Simon…

Simon felt himself starting to drift off. He really hadn’t slept well last night after all. Still, he fought the urge, not trusting Astral to let him sleep undisturbed. Or without doing anything weird to him.

Astral could feel Simon drifting off, too. The god let a little of his own influence, not enough for Simon to realize it was him, flow into the man, lulling him to sleep. He needed rest.

That little nudge was all it took for Simon to pass out, tucked away in the ‘safety’ of Astral’s arms. He’d probably still be trapped there once he woke up.

Astral moved to lay down, now that Simon was asleep. He cuddled with the sleeping man, content to lay there and fall asleep himself. He'd for sure be holding Simon still when the man woke up.

Simon didn’t sleep for as long as he needed to, he maybe got another three hours of sleep. But it was better than nothing. He opened his eyes slowly, already able to tell that he was still stuck in this stupid room with Astral. Without even really knowing why, he felt tears starting to blur his vision and roll slowly down his face.

Astral was asleep himself, Simon held gently to his chest. He awoke slowly, though, looking down at Simon. He didn't say a word, hand coming up and wiping the tears from Simon's face.

Simon didn’t say anything either, though he was certainly startled and it showed. He didn’t know that Astral was that close to waking up.

Astral didn't saw a word still, just wiping Simon's tears away and holding him close. He wasn't reacting negatively, which was always a good thing.

Simon stopped crying after another minute, closing his eyes again. He was glad Astral wasn’t getting mad at him, at the very least.

Astral watched as Simon closed his eyes, his hand falling to gently rub against his back similar to before they both fell asleep. The god rested his head back on the pillow, humming softly.

Simon didn’t even dare to really think too much right now, knowing that Astral could be listening at any moment. Right now, his head felt really fuzzy, not really feeling much of anything besides depression.
