"I didn't know he wore contacts," Rondo says. "I guess it's to protect his eyes, but gods, they're pretty."
"You do know you're pretty, right?" He leans down to murmur to Ziggy, since he seems to be getting a good response from talking to him. "I think you must."
And then all of a sudden he's enveloped in long, slender but surprisingly strong arms, and he makes a wordless exclamation of surprise. And then he gives a watery laugh, because it's sweet and touching to be cuddled so close, but he's still worried as hell.
"Yeah," he says. "Hi there." His kissing plan is not going to work if Ziggy's clinging to him like a snake to a branch, but he can be patient. He's not wailing any longer, so that has to be an improvement.
He smiles a little at Tom and gives an awkward shrug, accepting the bottle. "Good thing I bribed my roommate to cover for me. I'm not going anywhere for a while, it seems."
"But this is comfortable." He ruffles Ziggy's hair gently.
