[ Joy left Iorveth when he realized that he was born only to be decimated; carelessness left him when he decided to reject victimhood. Since then, it's only been protectiveness and anger and cycles of love and grief that whittled him down to bone and blood, interrupted only by an Illithid kidnapping and the strange journey that happened thereafter. Against all odds, his new comrades have given him new reasons to smile－ against even greater odds, the vampire of the group has given him a reason to laugh.
Tugged by the collar, Iorveth allows himself to be pulled into Astarion's space. It's a welcome sort of stumble, one that makes him realize that it's been a while since both of them have been clean and safe enough for this sort of harmless fooling around.
Another huff, amused, and Iorveth links his hands behind his own back. A criminal!!! ]
Name your price. I submit myself to you willingly.
[ A thing Iorveth wouldn't even think of saying in front of anyone else. He would snarl and bite and kick and scream in front of an actual judge and jury; in contrast, Astarion just gets a little bump to his jaw with Iorveth's nose. ]
