The question was a quietly contemplative one, Robin's fingers splaying leanly against Jareth's chest like the wing of a bird, measuring the slowing rhythm of his heart.
Lazily sated, Jareth drew in a slow breath. "Move them yourself," he suggested dryly, without opening his eyes. His fingers slid through the long silk of Robin's hair, untangling the strands. Around them, Robin could feel the Labyrinth settling again, corridors untwisting, smoothing to better suit the mind of its master. Always complicated, yes, but currently languorous as well.
"Can't." Robin curved around him, tangling their legs together and speaking against the angle of Jareth's jaw. "Beyond me, I'm afraid." He moved between worlds easily, but he never moved worlds.
Jareth opened one eye. The blue one, Robin noted. "I do believe I've given you enough."
"That's a pity," Robin purred, shifting to straddle him fully, his hair falling around them in a dark wave, his eyes already starlit. "I still have more that I wanted to give to you." The balance between them went unsteady with his offer, the scales tipping, and Jareth made a faint sound of irritation and acquiescence. The sky beyond the tower window brightened for just a moment, throwing both of them into relief with the light of a single falling star.
