[A soft chuckle escapes him.]

He wasn't all that bad, no. But things were a little complicated. [A pause as he makes a realization.] I guess things always are.

[His gaze goes to Drew's hand, and he considers placing his own atop for assurance before thinking better of the gesture. They haven't fully mended whatever is between them; besides, it seems Drew had wanted to avoid Toby's sentimentality earlier on. Probably wouldn't be a good idea to encourage him again, would it?]

[willinglychanged]

Ain't nothin' simple in the world Toby. Had to come to that realization a hell of a long time ago. Its sometimes good to make pretend an' act like it is. But it ain't.

[He sees Toby's eyes move, feels those emotions swirling through the bond and shrugs internally, making the first move and reaching out to squeeze Toby's hand in his own warm one, which was weird, because he'd forgotten just how cold the vampire was. He pulls his hand back just as quick, but it was a sign of change to come, at least.]

[His vampire heart skips a beat when Drew's warm hand takes his and gives it a quick squeeze. As short-lived as that moment is, Toby feels good. Special. And quite happy.]

...Yeah, that's true. Some things just seem simpler than others, though.

[But what is between Toby and Drew is not one of the simpler things. Such confusing feelings, and it's hard to understand exactly what their relationship is. Toby may be Dorian's, but his bond with Drew is intimacy of a sort that is completely unlike with Dorian.]

[willinglychanged]

[He didn't expect the flood of happiness from that small touch, it sends a pang of shame into his own stomach.]

They do, yeah. But unfortunately we're just shit outta luck with this one. We've run outta simple.
