feel your energy rush into me

Magnus was not one to show affection often, and in doing so made him unsure from the unfamiliarity of it. His heart pumped faster from nerves until his embrace was reciprocated, though hardly slowed much as he was still quite anxious. Something that felt like nausea boiled in his stomach, but he felt anything but sick. Her scent was intoxicating, though he'd never been drunk to compare the feeling yet he drank it up anyway, taking in all that he could while he held her close.

Her whisper of warning made him smile as she settled deeper into his neck; a challenge or a threat he wasn't sure but he hardly wanted to take the risk and continued to focus on calming her sadness. He would stay still in their embrace and continue to take in as much of her scent as she allowed, giving her however long she needed to quell the sad mood he had unfortunately put her in.
