[ Promises were very important. Not just in the concept as a whole, but in the way of deals and contracts. You do not make a promise you cannot keep, nor do you be someone who could not be trusted in the future to make promises. Lilia was not the type, as much as he was flighty and foolish in his own right.

There were times when one was meant to be serious, to make good on their words. This was one of those times.

The response to his little warnings makes the small fae laugh, moving to bury his face against Leona's shoulder, getting cozy then and there. If Leona isn't worried, carrying not just someone from the rival dorm but that dorm's Vice Housewarden, then Lilia wasn't going to worry at all. What would the point be?

The only thing Lilia is going to worry about is how small that kiss is once he gets it. ]

That's not nearly enough and you know it.

[ Lilia pouts, a bratty creature who tends to get his way when he doesn't need to be taken seriously. Leaning up further, bringing one arm properly around Leona's neck to tangle his fingers in his hair and tug him down, Lilia goes in for a better kiss. A longer one, deeper, caring; unlike what his lax attitude may suggest, this kiss says everything he wouldn't say in so many words. He'd missed Leona, wanted to be around him.

Maybe that's the real reason he'd come out to Savanaclaw instead of wandering the campus to look at the stars, even if he would never claim that as the reasoning. ]

That's more like it, see? [ He murmurs as he breaks the kiss, slowly petting Leona's hair. ] We deserve to share as many kisses like that as I want. As we want.

[ He's demanding, isn't he? Even more than that, he's nudging his forehead against Leona's cheek, leaning in enough to press a careful kiss against his jaw. ]

Did you miss me?

[ And, despite refusing to say it himself, he'd ask. Play to his own ego. ]
