Zagreus seems instantly pleased at Than physically displaying affection, and his laurels spark to life a bit brighter than intended for a moment before he tamps them down again. His free hand finds its rest on Than's knee, as Zagreus hums contentedly.

"I know. I felt you stabilize almost the moment you swallowed it." He brushes his thumb across Than's knee reassuringly. "Take your time, Than, I don't mean to rush you. Just wanted to be near you, that's all." He takes a small sip of his drink as he cuddles closer to Than, his warm laurels and feet still giving off a gentle heat despite their dimmed appearance.
