(( He can't fault Osiris if he chooses to go back to a place where he feels less vulnerable, less weak. Some small part of him is happy that Osiris has such a place to return to.
So why does imagining it hurt? Why does the mere thought of that potential future make his chest feel hollow and ache? ))
Please don't leave without saying goodbye. If you do return.
As long as you still desire my companionship, you will never be entirely without me. There will be time apart but never so much to necessitate a goodbye.
But I do promise that you will always know when I must be away from you before I leave.
(( Emmanuel actually drops his phone when he reads those words. It's not a long fall since he's seated, but enough of a clatter to be a momentary distraction. He rubs his face with his sleeve before reaching down to pick it up.
Of course those words are still there. So he answers the only way he knows how (and Osiris is probably getting very used to this part). ))

Thank you.

I love you, Emmanuel. That isn't something I ever stop doing once I've started.

Ah, that one just makes me want to see your smile in person.
[Of course, if he's going to say that, it's only fair to let Emmanuel see his as well. And no, his neck isn't covered.]

First, let me say pre-emptively that I don't need a response to this.
But you are so, so lovely.
