Title: Like Candy Rating: PG Word Count: 166 Card: Summer Bingo: (Air + Relax + Summer + Candy + Picnic) Summary: Matazi/Kol, set some time after Cold Fire.
When one of his apprentices asked Kol how he could stand keeping the peace in the Goldsmith's Guild, his answer was a surprise: "I follow my wife's example."
Kol certainly couldn't imagine running the Banacor Household: cleaning up the twins' magic-spills, Peigi and Eidart's fighting, servants' melodramas...
"You're just too kind-hearted," Matazi informed him solemnly. "Either that," she added, gesturing at the soft woolen blanket, spread with delicacies, "or you've been indiscreet." She arched an eyebrow.
"My dear," Kol said, equally grave, "Frostpine set such an inspirational example, it guides me even now." He held up a sweetmeat, sticky from the burst of summer heat; it was warmer than any summer in living memory.
Laughing, Matazi accepted the offer, guiding it to her mouth. She was still grinning when she relaxed against him, eyes drifting shut against a gentle breeze blowing, salty, from the Syth.
"Your hand tastes like candy," she mumbled, pressing his fingers -- strong from long years of goldsmith-work -- to her lips.

This is really cute and you've managed to breath life into an uncommon pairing.

Thanks. It's because the established Emelan couples (well, excluding some murderers) are so stable.
