[ Felix's ears flick back almost instantly at the shift of Sylvain's hand around the side of his head, and a low warning growl issues from within his throat—an involuntary reaction, like his own apprehension bubbled up out of him unbidden. He really didn't want to draw attention to these new features he's acquired overnight, much less let anyone touch them.
But they're Bonded now, and he's had to get used to simple exchanges of energy through touch, so he doesn't pull away completely. He's found there's a constant thrum of magic around Sylvain's fingertips now, and this close to his ears it's a sharp buzz that makes him huff quietly and tilt his head. At least it's not an unpleasant sensation. He could easily go back to sleep like this.
No sooner has Sylvain carded out one of the tangled knots in his hair then there's a sudden thump-thump from the mattress behind him, and Felix freezes. The noise stops. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that that's, well, him. ]
Shit.
[ He reaches up and snags Sylvain's wrist, before, goddess forbid, he touches him again and that noise starts back up. ]
Listen, I know you heard that. Don't— [ He's half-choking on his words, totally ashamed of himself. ] —don't you dare say a word to anyone.
