Series: The Dedicate and the Seer Title: Cool Compromise Rating: PG-13 Event: 100 Word Dash Words: 100 Summary: Crane finds the best of a bad situation. Warnings: Nudity & sexual suggestiveness Thanks to Rosie for coming up with the title The night was unseasonably warm for autumn. The browning leaves hung still in the trees and the guards on the wall drooped in their niches. It was so hot and stifling that Crane had been persuaded to leave his humid greenhouse for the coolness of Niko’s room. Normally Crane would have objected – his rooms were the winter rooms and Niko’s the summer. But it was hot enough – even in Niko’s rooms – for Niko to be sleeping completely bare. Crane decided the view was worth leaving his usual tranquil surrounds as he rolled over and planted a kiss on Niko’s shoulder.

I like that their rooms are divided between seasons - and the suggestion that Niko always sleeps bare when it's so hot Love the relationship you've created between them, and its relative ease.

Thanks (for both the review and their help) I figured Niko would get sick of sleeping in the greenhouse all the time and this seemed like a compromise they could both live with. But then of course Crane needed a sweetner

Love the relationship you've created between them, and its relative ease. ^this. ;D But also, gah, your imagery. The browning leaves hung still in the trees and the guards on the wall drooped in their niches.I love the comparison here!
