Gently Takes His Face In Their Hands, Pressing Their Forehead To His You Are The Worlds Greatest Gift

gently takes his face in their hands, pressing their forehead to his ❝ you are the worlds greatest gift ❞

At a loss for words, he could part his lips and refuse Enkidu, tell them that a man who had been built off of calamity and tragedy could not have existed as a gift. It would have been such a cruel thing to say however, to himself, and to Enkidu who loved him dearly. Eyes fluttered shut, a laugh gently pushing past his lips, hardly louder than a breath. Arms slid around Enkidu’s waist, pulling them closer as he contented himself to their shared embrace. He felt at ease, whatever doubt he held within his mind subsiding within that moment. Enkidu thought him to be something positive, and truly, was that not enough? To be loved so truly, Merlin was still acclimating himself to the feeling of it. It was akin to relearning a tongue he had long forgotten yet still absolved himself to comprehend.

❝ I’m not so sure about that, ❞ he began softly, ❝ but it sounds nice. so I’ll keep it close to me. ❞ To be loved was something new for Merlin. No, he had been loved before, yet Enkidu’s continued acceptance of every facet of his was odd (Merlin half-expected them to draw back at any moment, but they never did). ❝ I think you’re the greater gift. I mean, you preserve the world in ways I could have never imagined. You’re literally of the earth, Enkidu. ❞ A laugh, louder this time, playful and at ease.

kiss meme; no longer accepting || @fictile

29. as a promise

     OZYMANDIAS MADE IT ABSOLUTELY no secret that he wasvery fond of Enkidu. All knew instantly from watching his interactions that hewas more than content with being around them for extended periods of time, beit for an hour, two hours, a whole day — that meant nothing to him because hefelt most things lacked importance. Not Enkidu, however. Oh no, they wouldnever be ‘unimportant’ in the Pharaoh’s eyes despite how they humbly viewedthemselves as just another being in this vast world. Standing by one of thelong windows in Chaldea’s hallway, he watched the blizzard roaring outside withEnkidu, quietly wondering if the sun would ever return to this desolate land ofice and snow with the slightest displeasure. However, a glance at Enkidu showedthat they felt the opposite of him; eyes curious and head tilted just slightlyto the side as they watched the scene with him.

     The sheer innocence of such a sight brought a slightsmile to his lips. ❝Enkidu,you are truly someone special. To think that I, Ozymandias, would feel suchcloseness to another like this…❞He trailed off, humming softly as he glanced back out the window. ❝At first, I allowed you near me because  I wanted to see what it was about you that couldmake a man like Gilgamesh smile the same way I do when Nefertari’s name isbrought forth. I knew the tale between you and him because of the Grail, yet Ionly knew the legend itself. That alone does not offer the insight I desired tosee. Thus, I stayed near you, observedyou in order to satiate my curiosity.❞Although he knew that Enkidu was a special individual because anyone who could dealwith Gilgamesh for an extended amount of time had to be someone noteworthy, he did not know the extent.

     The legend itself did him no true justice.

     Silence reigned between them then, Enkidu not lookingdirectly at him, but he could feel they were listening as intently as they didwith the chirping of birds of the sashaying of grass on a windy day. Turning sohe could properly address the other, he took their hands in his, lifting them towardshis lips so he could press a gentle kiss upon fingertips. ❝I can now understand what it is the Golden One sees, orperhaps better yet, what he saw in you. For that, I will bestow upon you the title of friend. Wear that title well, for I do not give it freely.❞ Considering how difficult it was for him to outrightadmit to seeing someone as such, this only showcased how much he had grown tolove Enkidu overall.

why does everyone else get pets :c

     HE MAKES SURE TO give Enkidu many headpats. He could not leave his friend out. If it was pets they desired, then he would give them a hundred, no, a thousand without hesitation! One could never question the sheer power of the generosity of Ozymandias, King of Kings, when he went so above and beyond!

me  ??  reblogging a hc meme  ??  sounds strange fake  ╱ accepting.

their eyes change color slightly  !!  like a kaleidoscope of greens  (  a mix of blues and yellows  ---  like a passing stream of filtered sunlight  ).  it depends on how they catch the light  &&  what’s nearby, like they’re feeding off the environment around them

they have very sharp canines.  reminiscent of an animals  ---  usually you can’t see them being as Enkidu doesn’t  ??  flaunt them  ??  but get them angry enough they can get flashed in warning  (  leftover behavior from eons left to the wilds  ).
