[ Varian catches the blush, a hint of one crossing his own cheeks. ]
Good. You better~
[Varian LOVES showing off what he knows, and this is something he's always wanted to do but thought he never could. He can't show Jun around Corona, he can't take him to Old Corona to see the farm he grew up on to the island capital and the palace. But he can show him around a part of his country, and that is something he's desperately excited to do.
He returns the kiss, leaning in just for a moment to rest his forehead against Jun's. ]
I do. It'll be just perfect for you. [ He returns the hand squeeze, before raising it in farewell as Jun goes to the bedroom. ] Rest well, mein herz, I'll see you again soon. I love you, too.
[And so, Varian hefts his bag on his shoulders and takes off towards the town. It's a long walk, like Jun told him, but it's not bad at all. Every step makes him feel good, a lightness in his chest that has been missing for nearly three years. Getting into the town itself is a joy. The cobbles streets, the old buildings, it really does feel displaced by time, which means it's perfectly in-step with Varian's own experiences. He spends a few hours exploring, wandering the streets, taking in the sights, listening to people speaking his first language all around him. It's wonderful.
But what he really wants, after getting is loner time in, is to experience this all with his boyfriend. To show him just what an amazing gift he's given him. So, he drops into a local bakery, finding a cake that's familiar to him- and is delighted to still see it being made. He knows his boyfriend's sweet tooth only too well, so he'll get a whole cake rather than a couple slices. And that done, he leaves the bakery, finds himself a shadow out of prying eyes he can step into, and brings himself back to the cabin, cake box in hand.]
