[Sorry things have been a little quiet. It's been... an interesting week so far. Right now I'm trying to figure out if I need to go to the doctor because my lungs feel a size too small out of no where for the last two days and my partner has been horribly sick with something.]
When Charles realized the situation he was in, his initial thought was a panicked one. He had taken himself so far out of that mental space, refusing it because the pain of simply not having it be a part of his life was the lesser pain versus the pain of realizing again and again what he had lost and how it affected it. The idea of sympathy and pity and awkwardness and possibly a returned to loneliness that would be worse than before. The heartache of what he had lost that had nothing to do with his legs.
Yet here he was, standing in this impossible dreamscape with a man of another world, another species, with no one else around, that old part of him crops up eagerly in reminder of better times and he gives a faint smirk, possibly felt against Aurus' lips. There was no stealing something that was given willingly.
He closed the distance as his hand came up to the back of Aurus' neck, his eyes falling closed as he kissed the other. The strange texture of those lips - almost flesh-like yet not. Not bad, no. It was... alluring, in its way.
