[He still feels fragile, worn out, but he doesn't feel as weighted down as he did when Venti had first knocked on the door. The kiss to his cheek makes him smile and he moves his hand from the back of Venti's head to cup his cheek, keeping his head tipped up.]
It must be your magic.
[That is mostly a joke.
Diluc strokes his thumb gently across the bard's cheek bone, then presses another soft kiss to his mouth. It's... gentle and still chaste, almost appreciative in nature, and he lets it linger for a moment.]
[ He returns the kiss, as equally chaste but eager all the same. Venti's affectionate by nature, so of course he doesn't pass up the offered kiss. He reaches a hand and rests it on his cheek there, and then he speaks. ]
Well, I do have a bit of healing magic here. I'm still practicing, but I've gotten pretty good at what they have to offer.
[ He smiles brightly at that. He knows Diluc was teasing a little bit, but he still - makes the offer anyway. Because it's nice for him to know. ]
So if you ever need some smaller healing, I can do that, too. But I'd check in on you anytime. Because, you know, that's what I do.
[People don't often get to see the softer sides of Diluc Ragnvindr. It takes a certain kind of person to get him to let all of his guard down, but lying side by side with Venti like this... he has certainly done that.]
I know.
[It's... nice. Just being here like this.]
I think... I should try to get some sleep. But you can stay if you want to.
[ He'll - well, fall asleep himself there. He's comfortable next to Diluc and it's easy here with him. He figured it was polite enough to warn the guy, go. You know, so he doesn't wake up surprised that Venti has opted to stay here while he rested (and inevitably sleep himself). ]
