[ "Wonderful and lovable". Iorveth huffs a quiet laugh at the descriptors (he's not going to argue it), and leans in, finally, to bump foreheads. ]

[ He isn't just a part of the Aen Seidhe: he is Aen Seidhe. A concept that Astarion probably doesn't quite grasp, and one that, of everyone in their ragtag group, Lae'zel probably related to the most. (Probably the reason why she didn't kill Iorveth on sight.) ]
...The north is stabilizing. My people have a dragon watching over them, now. [ Saskia, the one he gave Henselt's head to. Saskia, who Iorveth hopes will finally bring some sort of peace to elves who have been fighting tooth and nail for it for well over a century. ] They've tired of me and my intensity, I suspect.
[ It hurts. But what doesn't? Iorveth strokes Astarion's cheek again, and settles. ]
So now, you get the brunt of it. [ A wry laugh. ] This is where most people would run screaming, you're aware.
