Some planet, afternoon [NFB for distance]

[momslilassassin]

Ben still was exactly sure where he and Ender had ended up but the food was good, the view from their room was fantastic, and nothing had tried to eat them.

He was calling it a win.

He leaned against the balcony railings and ate a piece of fruit (weirdly blue, but other than that very tasty) and watched some kind of birds float serenely on a lake in the near distance.

"Not a bad way to spend time, huh?" he asked.

[OOC: And not so much with the work-safe these days...]

"Ouch," Ben agreed sleepily, nuzzling Ender's neck for a second before waving over a box of tissues.

[endsthegame]

"Lazy," Ender chastised him.

Obviously, taking a tissue and using it to clean Ben up was really going to teach him not to be so lazy in the future.

[momslilassassin]

"Nuh uh," Ben replied before letting out a soft sigh at what Ender was doing. "That's nice too."

[endsthegame]

"Guess I'm just nice today," Ender murmured, tossing the tissue in the vague direction of the trash can.

[momslilassassin]

Ben leaned his forehead against Ender's for a second before reaching for a tissue and returning the favor for Ender. "You're nice a lot of the time."

[endsthegame]

Ender let his face slip back into the hollow of Ben's throat, and hummed. "That's debatable," he murmured, "But I like being nice to you."

[momslilassassin]

Ben wrapped his arms around Ender's waist again and closed his eyes. "I prefer you not use this particular form of being nice on anyone else," he babbled.

[endsthegame]

Ender snorted softly, curling against him. "Wouldn't dream of it," he said, shutting his own eyes.

[momslilassassin]

"Good," Ben mumbled, pressing a kiss to the nearest bit of Ender's skin. "Because I'm a ridiculously amount of in love with you."

[endsthegame]

Ender couldn't help but smile just a bit. "Everything you do is ridiculous," he murmured. "Silly, and completely out of your mind. Love you too, you great big fool."

Shush. He was sleepy, everything felt nice, he was allowed to babble too, sometimes.

[momslilassassin]

"Don't think I'll get tired of hearing that ever," Ben replied sleepily.

[endsthegame]

"Love you," Ender repeated. "Go to sleep..."

He was quickly heading that way.

[momslilassassin]

"Love you too," he mumbled before following Ender's excellent example.

[endsthegame]

Ender was going to have to drag them out and into the world some time after they were done napping - he didn't want to stay cooped up in here the whole weekend.

But right now, strange contentment was making way for sleep - which was nice for the both of them.
