He settles on the couch, tucking his legs up under him, his tail curling neatly around him, the tip of it tapping against the cushion lightly. He keeps his hands wrapped around his mug, taking a small sip, smiling softly.
"Please, join me," He asks, patting beside him. He'd prefer to sit close, even better if they can be touching but he won't press his luck.
The little pat is all Hermes needs to be encouraged to join him on the sofa. Down he sits, keeping a bit of space between then, but only out of politeness. He wouldn't mind being closer to G'raha. He enjoyed it when they had been in the past, after all.
A sip of his tea has him smiling over the rim of the cup.
"It would take less time if we were closer," He points out with a soft smile, taking the initiative to crawl carefully closer, making sure not to spill his tea as he settles against Hermes. He can feel the warmth from his body already, not that he's all too cold anymore, and tucks his feet up, curling his tail around himself as he takes a sip of the tea.
"I imagine we've done this before," He says with a thoughtful tilt of his head, taking another sip as he wraps his hands around the cup to let it warm his fingers.
Well, that was certainly forward of him. Hermes can't help but cast his gaze down toward the other man, cheeks warm. He wanted to be closer and now, well, he would, considering G'raha's decided to snuggle up against him.
"We have, yes. We enjoyed one another's company quite a bit."
He can't entirely blame the cold. Between being inside and Hermes' handy magic, he'd already felt comfortable, but he certainly isn't about to pass up the chance to sit nice and close to Hermes. They'd been close before after all.
He smiles softly and takes a sip of his tea.
"I think, I can see why," He says softly with a warm smile over his cup, "You strike me as very caring and thoughtful.
Have you... kept the belongings of many of your Submissives? Have many disappeared like I did?"
Caring and thoughtful...it's funny how those traits were ones people appreciated here and yet they were things that caused so much strife for him back home.
"Beyond yourself and Zagreus, I only had one other Submissive. She did not live with me and so I did not keep any of her belongings."
Thinking about Persephone brings up uncomfortable memories so he pushes them aside, not wanting to dwell on them.
"I suppose I couldn't bear to part with your things. Mayhaps I thought you would return. Zagreus left and did, after all."
