[He's definitely smirking, and Miya's ears are bright red as he covers his face.] Doooon't laugh at me! I'm trying to be serious!
[But it's sort of nice. The attention. He'd never gotten this much attention back in the temple. Honestly, he'd gotten used to being ignored, had resigned himself to it. This is -- new. Strange. Kind of addictive. Miyano could get used to having Bruce's attention on him.
Peeking through his fingers:] I understand the basics. You won't have to worry about that. Whenever, um. Whenever we. You. When we.
( Miyano is so different to what he's used to, Bruce can't help but be fascinated. Among his family, they're all so open without the stuttering and flustering about so much. It's such an interesting contrast.
He only arches a brow at the way the teen peeks through his fingers. )
There is? [All right, so maybe he'd hyperfocused a little. Bruce is a very...physically distracting person. It's only natural that Miyano's mind would go there first.
But he settles down on his side, propping his cheek on one hand.] What do you mean?
( Bruce is similar in that his thoughts had gone there first as well. Still seem to wander back to it especially now with how much of his shirt exposes more of that fair skin. But he's far better at containing his own desire than Miyano.
So when the teen settles on his side, Bruce lets himself sink back into the bedding, tucking one arm behind his head. )
We'll be married. I'll be committing my life to you - to giving you a home, comfort, family.
Hmmm. [Miyano is quiet for a long moment. Then, hesitantly, watching Bruce's face for any sign he should pull away, he reaches out under the covers and slides his much smaller hand onto the man's arm. He's very warm, and despite the heavy blankets, Miya is still chilly.
So he inches closer, still very cautiously.] I've never really had those things. But -- they sound really nice. All of them.
[The careful inching forward has the much-too-big shirt falling even more off Miyano's shoulders, but he seems oblivious to that.]
( Miyano moves so slowly, it reminds Bruce of a small, skittish animal. He hopes that'll pass in time and that the teen will become more comfortable in his company.
He stretches his arm out, nodding his head towards it in invitation for Miyano to come closer. )
You will here. I'll make sure of that. ( That's a promise he has every intention of keeping. )
A lot of our family was like you once. They'll welcome you with open arms.
[Part of Miyano is, admittedly, thinking about the wreckage of the village, how thoroughly and mercilessly Bruce had conquered it, the chaos in his wake. He knows the warrior king is powerful, ferocious. Have a comfortable bed and some kind words really won him over so easily?
Yes, Miyano has to admit, slowly moving until his knees bump against Bruce's thighs, reminding him again how much smaller he is. How the man could wreck him without even trying. But yes. He's been won over.]

There's more to my offer than just sex, Miyano.
