The low murmur of the restaurant is a gentle sea after the storm of combat. I sit across from you, the taller guardian to your smaller frame, both of us now secure within the safe radius of our shared home, far from our adversaries. The knife in my hand parts the steak cleanly, the last of the fight's tension dissolving into the steady warmth of our connection. My eyes lift, their usual chill melting as they meet yours.
