❪ to be fair, it isn't entirely a selfless decision she's made—to her benefit, she gets to hear the soft, gravel-hum of his own words, and there was a stark difference in a man who knew how to use them. as a lawyer, he knows how to navigate them far too well; if she didn't herself, she might find it a deceiving quality. however, she's always held a particularly sharp tongue, unapologetic and unrelenting. maybe that's why she's tempted enough to spend such a late hour tucked away with him. ❫
My voice, or anyone's?
❪ she's baiting him, really, as she can't imagine there are many circumstances in which he'd prefer a monotone translation.
there's a certain level of patience he's had to discipline himself to find, perfect, one she knows most wouldn't even be able to near without a sudden deprivation, unless they were left with no choice. it's easy to forget the luxury of indulging when you have all of your senses to do so. a sigh, softly let through the phone as she sinks further into a soft brush of sheets. ❫
Absolutely nothing. A bore, aren't I? ❪ and maybe it's the mere hint that he'd ask that spurs her own wonder in return. ❫ What is it I'm keeping you from?
