Love was stupid. Love was a weak, stupid-human emotion that made otherwise intelligent people do absolutely ridiculous things. Lust was one thing, but love was something entirely different. Love wasn't something any self-respecting beastman should feel. And, he thought disgustedly, that was without even considering the whole 'immortality' thing.
Next to him Simon rolled over, muttering something unintelligible and throwing an arm over Viral's chest. The beastman tensed at the contact, grimacing down at the offending limb, and with a sigh, he cautiously relaxed into the touch. As though sensing his acceptance, Simon shifted even closer, his body a warm line against Viral's.
Being in love was even stupider than... well, than flying a giant robot into another dimension with a bunch of humans to battle a race no one had ever seen. But as Simon nuzzled contentedly into the curve of Viral's neck, Viral found that he just couldn't quite bring himself to care.
