Maybe I shouldn't say 'maybe' at the start of that, then.
[ With a slight grin for some fun at his own expense for intentionally choosing to do that again - especially when maybe doesn't have a place here. It's more of a definite thing; how couldn't it be when what Dion says feels so grounding? A contrast to the ways Claude voices things evasively himself so often as a defense against figuring out where someone else might stand.
He's reminded again of the unflinching sincerity Dion's offered him time after time, and now is not the time to leave loose ends anywhere when time together in person just like this is limited. The Horizon even with as much as it can do would not be quite the same as being able to stand here wrapped up in each other. ]
The same is true for me again, though it took me longer to know it than I wish it would have since we could have had this sooner. There's not much I wouldn't want to stumble into with you, Dion. So long as we do it together.
[ Room certainly brings about another thought with it that's been in the back of his mind. One which was going to be inevitable no matter what and even more so now when there's an important consideration to that in what Dion's feelings on it may be. Claude doesn't withdraw when he shifts since it's not to pull away but rather to move his hand still lingering in that additional embrace just enough to also brush back some strands away from Dion's face gently. ]
I always have room for you. Though you should know you aren't the only one who has a part of my heart, and because of that I wouldn't ask you to to limit where yours goes now or at any other time. None of that changes how I feel about you, but I understand if it does for you or if you need time to think about it beyond this.
