He tucks his chin against the top of her head, grinning at his cleverness--and at the sheer pleasure of having Yseult laid close to him like this. Their hands are trapped between them but there isn't anything uncomfortable in it. There is nothing better.
"If you stopped talking to me, I'd still hear you whenever I dreamed of you. Which is often. I'm not saying I'd get over it, but I'd at least have that."
