[ isn't entirely there even when the plane comes to a complete stop; the noise ringing in his head is as painful as he remembers it being, making him sway a bit while pressing a hand to his forehead. the world before his eyes seems to double, triple, merge back into one, then double again, while the blueprint-world throbs in noisy emptiness. makes small whimpering noises when they're walking, barely hanging onto consciousness by focusing on that comforting, erratic heartbeat he knows is near.

gropes around for a smaller hand that he knows is around (but can't remember why it would be right this moment) while mumbling absentmindedly under his breath in german, as if he's welcoming himself back home. ]

[ bends down even more to plant a small kiss to the corner of the lips this time. ]

I give Nathan present later. Find good present.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ ears go red, looking away like he typically does. ]

T-this was a good enough present. Really.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ shifts his face to the hair tucked behind nathan's ear, nuzzling softly. ]

Nein. Is birthday. Special day. Give real present.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ shivers lightly at the contact, though doesn't seem to dislike it one bit. ends up just giving him one of his smiles again when he composes himself once more. ]

... okay. I look forward to it.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ plants a kiss there & lifts his head away to nod excitedly. ]

I try! Look hard!

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ bites his lip briefly, knowing his reflexes will give whatever he's feeling away in a heartbeat. literally. goes back to center to give his head a little nudge. ]

I-- I believe in you.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ tilts his head a little in slight confusion at the shift in sounds. keeps that confusion to himself, however, for now running a hand through nathan's hair in soothing petting motions. ]

Danke.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ allows the petting for a while as he shifts himself back to his default as smoothly as possible. after a beat he slips a hand from underneath his resting spot to reach up slowly, taking caleb's hand away from his head to cup it in between his palms. presses that hand against his nose to hide his glee, eyes closing once more. ]

Mm.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ lets a slow smile spread across his lips. doesn't move his hand away, instead lifting his other one to trace at nathan's eyebrows in silence. ]

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ tilts his head to relax into him further, content with the silence and contact between them. without thinking he murmurs quietly: ]

I like it here.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ continues his motions. ]

I like Deutschland too.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

... of course you do, it's your homeland.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ nods. ]

Good place. I am happy Nathan visit Deutschland.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

W-well... you like it so much, so...

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

But is new! New to Nathan, but Nathan come, and stay. And like!

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ rests his hand on one of nathan's cheeks. ]

Danke.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ twists his head a bit to look up at him fully, still keeping his hold on caleb's other hand. ]

I'd stay here too if I could. So no need for thanks.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ blinks. ]

SAVE say no to Nathan too?

[prideofmusic.livejournal.com]

...

[ releases a hand to push his face away a little. ]

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ bounces right back. ]

Ehhh. . .

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ wraps that hand around caleb's again. looks away, mumbling: ]

I meant that it wouldn't mean anything if you weren't here with me.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

. . . ! [ despite the lightbulb, he doesn't respond immediately, trying to make sense of some additional questions that he has. but in the end he decides against voicing them for now, merely lifting his free hand to pat at some of nathan's hair. ]

Then come again. Come to Deutschland again together, when it is okay.

[prideofpuppy.livejournal.com]

[ there is a typical blush across his nose and cheeks, though he looks up for a split second this time instead of completely hiding it. curls up a bit more, giving a tiny nod. ]

O-okay. I'll try to learn more German, too.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

Ja! Learn with Nathan. Nathan learn Deutsch, I learn English!

[prideofmusic.livejournal.com]

[ can't help but reach up and prod caleb's nose upward again. says jokingly: ]

Cool. It's a date, then.
