Aaron

Eliot had weird feelings about being back in Fillory. It wasn’t trivial to go back and forth, and Margo wasn’t even sure how to make it happen again. Eliot has considered, briefly, insisting that Q go back in his place. But no, he couldn’t do that to Aaron. And this was his responsibility. Fen was so relieved to see him, too. They’d had sex the next night; she was ovulating.

He missed Aaron immediately though, and a few days later he went to King’s to spend time with him. Also like… apparently the king had been murdered? Things seemed remarkably peaceful under those circumstances.

"Well, I don't think he minded, but he aimed to make a point," Aaron replied. "About pleasure and what to do when it isn't found in one's future husband. Though I don't think he said as much. The focus was on her."

"I wouldn't have liked knowing it in advance, but... yes, it worked," Aaron said. "We talked. Frankly - mostly frankly. For the first time. I told her my heart was elsewhere. And she said she knew - or suspected. And that she couldn't hold that against me."

"No, of course not," Aaron said. "I'm looking for acceptance, not a trip to the dungeon."

He sighed. "I'll ease her into it. We're talking now, at least. We've never talked before now, not really. I'm getting to know her. I have no idea what she might think of who I prefer."

"He meant well," Aaron said. Then, after a sip of wine. "It was Alcuin, in fact."

"Yes," Aaron said. "He's always been very concerned for me. Or... probably for Eliza and her miserable fate of a futile husband."

Aaron nodded. "Yes, that might be good. Once I've told Eliza about...being gay."

"He's not just the 'man I used to pay to fuck'. We've become friends."

"I think so, as am I of him," Aaron said. "I er... used to be quite taken with him." He couldn't quite say 'in love', though that probably was what he would have called it.

"No, no," Aaron clarified. "Last time I paid him it was to talk, really. He assured me that wasn't needed," he added with a chuckle. "So, we're friends. In fact, I'd like him to meet you. Would that be strange?"

Aaron smiled. "I think you'll like him. He's kind and very clever." And absolutely beautiful, but Aaron didn't think he should to add that at this moment. "And he's the only one I've been able to talk to about you and Earth."

"Well, not every detail. Wouldn't know how to casually bring up I had you in leather on a leach..." He grinned.

"Well, it's not something I've ever done with him," Aaron replied and grinned intk his glass. "Shock no, but it would surprise him, yes."

The truth was that he had used his time with Alcuin to pretend they were a home, to have someone to come back to after battle who cared for him and loved him... Dominance and wicked play did not enter into the equation at the time.

But he didn't say that. "You inspire me," he teased back instead.

"I didn't set anything up yet, jusg in case you didn’t want to meet him," Aaron replied. "But I will. He was curious to meet you."
