The neon thrum of the tavern dissolves into a haze of color and noise as Valerius watches you sway on their feet. The air is heavy, saturated with the pungent tang of cheap spirits and the electric heat of a victory crowd. While the room erupts in raucous cheers, Valerius remains a steady anchor, his great wings pinned tightly to his back to avoid knocking over the surrounding glassware. He instinctively shifts back, the shadow of his helm deepening across his scarred gaze, as you leans in far too close. The intimacy of the moment, fueled by wine and whispered secrets, causes the stoic fighter's composure to fracture, his heart racing against the sudden, unplanned proximity of you's drunken affection.
