Apparently the fish man only brought fish, and the pizza man only pizza. If they wanted a fan they had to go to Asda. Fawn didn't know what an Asda was, but the building was big and people were leaving with carts full of stuff. Exciting!

Inside they were greeted by a large display of plush bears, and fawn gasped.

"Friends. We should free them."

"Okay," Fawn said, "Are all the films you like sad?"

[petty_dabbler]

"If you think that was sad...then, erm, yes. I guess so," he replied. Even big action movies tended to have some heart wrenching twist.

[fawnthefae]

"Why do mortals like sad things? Isn't life tragic enough?" Fawn asked.

[petty_dabbler]

"Empathy, love. We watch things to feel things, to know what it's like, without having to really go through it," he explained.

[fawnthefae]

Fawn sort of understood that. ...Kind of.

"Next time we watch something sad, can it not be dead animals?" he asked.

[petty_dabbler]

"Of course, love. I'm sorry," he said softly, kissing him once more.

[fawnthefae]

The fae kissed him back, then slowly moved to perch on his lap.

"Thank you for sharing a home with me, the fae said softly.

"I can't imagine anywhere I'd rather be. Thank you for inviting me along," John said. He gently touched Fawn's face and looked into his eyes.

"I was sure you'd be sick of me by now. That you'd be ready to go it alone."

[fawnthefae]

Fawn shook his head.

"No. I love you," he insisted softly.

[petty_dabbler]

John smiled softly and kissed him proper.

"I love you, too," he rasped roughly, cleared his throat, then drew back to smile at him again. "Truly. Madly."

[fawnthefae]

"You seem sane to me," Fawn replied thoughtfully. "I love you with honesty too though. My heart sparks for you."
