[ Molly promises, leaning their foreheads together again for a moment. ]
We're friends. If you want, we can be a little more.
[ They're both emotionally compromised and desperate for distractions and affirming they're safe and loved and real. It might be a bad idea, but also... why not?
Why not. ]
I know what you said before, though. This can be it; just us, being sweet.
[ The kiss helps him relax, shoulders sagging. He hums into the warm press of those lips and noses at Molly's cheek, breathing steadying out the longer that goes on. ]
I like it, the way we ... the way we fit together. [ His face feels hot admitting that. ] Can we stay like this a while? Just ...
[ Trying to use actions instead of flawed words, he leans away to sink down beside Molly and slide a leg over the tiefling's, arms still around him. Less overtly sexual but still cosy. Fjord runs a hand up into soft wavy hair, gathering it at a nape. His gaze lingers on the middle-distance between them, seeing other experiences. ]
I don't want to forget it's you, not even for a second to ... you know.
[ Molly smiles, moving with Fjord so that they can stay close while cuddling, but in a less precarious position. He presses another kiss against the half-orc's forehead, purring softly. ]
I'm me, Fjord. I'm going to be me for as long as I can, and this place is giving me that option for now. So as long as we're here, I'm never leaving you.
[ He rubs his fingers against that nice beard, eyes glowing against his lashes as he glances down at Fjord's chest. ]
It's a weird place and it might be pushing us further together because of all these things and that it's only us, but... I've always found you a ridiculously attractive man, and you're a wonderful friend. Feelings are weird, but I just need you to know that.
[ It's the most reassured he's felt since they arrived on the island. Fjord wraps Molly up in his arms and kisses him on the forehead, right on the base of each horn then in the middle, nuzzling his hair. ]
I love you, Molls. I'm always here for you too.
[ If Molly lets himself be cuddled, Fjord will slowly start to fall asleep with Molly ensconced safely in his arms. Far from Lucien. ]
[ Molly can't stop smiling, more than happy to be held like this while Fjord starts to doze off. It feels like they're reached some kind of level of friendship he doesn't know what to call, but it's almost as close as his and Yasha's.

I would hate to be the reason I lost you a second time, all over again.

[ Molly gives Fjord another kiss; sweeter and soothing. ]
You're not going to lose me. We don't have to do anything if you feel it might be awkward or weird, but losing me? Nah.

'Love' is such a strong word, but as friends? ]
I love you too. Get some more rest.
