He watched dubiously as the jacket came off; he hadn’t expected Gabby to actually go through with it- not that the horse was complaining. Then he was being scooped back into the dragon’s hold and Efflo couldn’t hold back a soft gasp as their skin met. It was so cold, cooling the radiating heat from his body in a delicious sensation that made him make sounds he'd never uttered before in his life. He met Gabby’s unwavering stare, savoring the moment and the kiss but his eyes held no answers for Gabby. Efflo was beyond thinking anything, consumed by feeling.
He whined when Gabby’s lips left his own, it wasn’t enough, wasn’t nearly enough. He wanted to kiss Gabby forever. But somewhere in his haze came the nagging thought, maybe they were moving too fast. They shouldn’t rush something so intense, even though every part of him screamed at him to just abandon logic and sink into the passion of it all. He blew out a sigh, tracing dark fingers over Gabby’s pale chest. It was so different compared to his; the dragon didn’t have a single rib showing, no scars.
“It doesn’t,” Efflo answered pointedly, after a moment. “Not by a longshot.”

The answer had him laughing, but he kept it to a quiet sound that made his body shake. "Fair enough." He chuckled out, resting back and pulling Efflo tight against him. "How about you ask me another question." He paused, and his body shook with amusement again. "No more kissing requests. If you're not careful, we'll never stop."
Gabby liked the way green looked against his skin. He liked the little thrill that ran down his spine when Efflo's fingers caressed his chest. He let his head rest back on the ground, and sunk into the content of the moment, all the while wondering if he'd ever felt so good in his entire life.

Efflo lifted his head, looking at Gabby with the best pout he could muster. But he couldn’t hold it and then he was laughing as well, softly, unable to stop himself from dipping in for one more kiss. Just one more, just a little peck on those frosty lips and that was it, he promised.
Then he was settling back down, curling against the pale boil. Questions were a lot harder to think of than he would have guessed, Efflo wanted to know so much he didn’t know where to start. And what if he asked the wrong question? Plus every question he asked was likely to be reflected back at him, and Efflo didn’t have a whole lot of answers. He huffed a little sigh, kissing was much easier.
“Are you a dragon?” he asked suddenly, hand curiously reaching to touch his wings. It sounded stupid as soon as he said it, of course Gabby was! But Efflo had never met a dragon before, and he didn’t know very much about them.

Damn him. Damn him for stealing another kiss. Hadn't he realized by now the urgent necessity that welled up inside of Gabby every time his kiss was stolen? Now all he could think about was getting that kiss back, even as Efflo laughed and asked the kind of question he'd considered obvious. He would have laughed at it, but he was determined now. Focused. Obsessed. "Yes, I'm a dragon." He murmured distractedly. "I was a white dragon, but then I died. So now I'm a ghost. And you're a horse. Right? Or was?" Questions, questions, quest- damn it he needed to kiss Efflo so bad, right now.

“A white dragon?” Efflo asked, still curious. “How did you die?”
It was Gabby’s fault for making him ask questions, now he couldn’t stop. The boil had a thoughtful look on his face, tapping a finger against his own lips as he pondered, oblivious to Gabby’s inner turmoil. His own emotions were barely kept at bay; the only way to stop him from plastering his lips to the dragon’s was to keep asking questions.
“And yes, I’m a horse, of course!” he quipped, grinning cheekily.

No, no, why did he have to actually touch his own lips - Gabby ducked his head in, and his kiss landed right on the boil's lips without moving his finger, so that the appendage was caught between them. He didn't care, he was insistent in taking what was his. Out of revenge for the way his finger provoked him, his teeth bit down on the tip before he pulled away, and acted like nothing had just happened.
But in truth, he felt a great deal relieved.
"I don't know how I died. I woke up in a cave, I left, and then when I came back, some a*****e was trying to move into it. We couldn't decide who should get it, so we decided neither of us would. And I guess that's as far back as I can remember. I mean, I know I died. It's obvious. But how.." He shrugged noncommittally. "How did you die?"

Efflo mewled as the dragon nibbled his finger then moved away, the action invigoration yet oh so frustrating at exactly the same time. The poor horse wasn’t feeling any relief at all. Not fair Gabby! He squirmed in the dragon’s arms, torn between abandoning the conversation yet again and answering the boil’s question.
He sighed heavily, acting sulky as he decided to go with the latter. It was a hard, hard decision.
“I don’t know either, I don’t remember anything. One day I just woke up here and then the gnomes helped me get into the school,” he replied, frowning. It was a little unsettling not knowing so much about one’s self.

"I guess that's pretty typical. Not remembering stuff in our life." He was secretly glad no gnomes had tried to help him anywhere - he was sure he would have eaten them all. "I just decided one day I wanted to learn more. So I came here. End of story." His fingers ran through the boil's hair, and he silently added to himself that this was no end, this moment was just the beginning. "Okay, my turn." Gabby thought long and hard about what he wanted to know. In the end, he turned to old standbys. "You ever dated anyone before me?" It felt funny to say it out loud. Dating. And just a few days ago he'd decided he didn't even want to make any more friends. Now he'd made so much more than a friend.

“Yeah,” Efflo agreed softly, it was typical it seemed for undead, but it didn’t mean he had to like it.
He glanced at Gabby, green eyes wide and staring. Dating? Did he just… Were they? Was it official? Did Gabby just make it official? He snuggled into the boil with a happy little purr, unable to stop himself from pressing a kiss to his pale cheek. It was okay if it wasn’t the lips, right? They could contain themselves… But even as he thought it, he was finding it very hard to not continue kissing the boil.
“No… No one,” he answered, resting his face near the dragon’s. He’d never even thought of dating before Gabby. The number of creeple he knew could be counted on one hand, and if he was honest with himself, even that was getting to be too large a number of who can invade my social space. But Gabby was different. Even if it had been that Thackery’s suggestion, he knew he had wanted to kiss the boil, even if he was a stranger. He just liked him and he couldn’t help it.
“You?”

Gabby read the surprise in Efflo's expression, and felt a pang of guilt. Maybe he hadn't been clear enough, by the way he couldn't stop kissing the boil. For all he'd known, this could have been some arrangement, without actually forming a relationship. Gabby just assumed.. and now he felt bad for saying it so casually.
Efflo seemed ridiculously happy about the notion, but Gabby still felt like he'd dropped the ball. Maybe there was still time to make it up to him.
"Hah. No, I've never dated. I think you're forgetting, I'm impossible to deal with." He adjusted the boil in his arms carefully, pulling him up so that his head was level with Gabby's and he could look into his eyes. "But uh, I didn't mean to just, assume. Like.." Inadequacies abounded, making his face burn with embarrassment. "I guess, what I should have said is, is that what you want? Do you want to be mine?"

“You’re not impossible, you’re more like… impossible-adjacent,” he grinned.
Then Gabby was pulling him up, closer and…Yes! Yes, yes, a million times yes! Wasn’t it obvious? He wasn’t sure he could smile anymore than he already was at being with the boil but Gabby’s question made the colt practically beam, his gaze warm with delight.
“Yes,” he said, dipping his face lower to kiss the dragon. “I,” kiss, “Would,” kiss, “Really,” kiss, “Like that.”

There were stolen kisses, and then there were... this. Gabby took each and every offer, his eyes closing helplessly as they pecked against his lips over and over. When he was done punctuating his words with kisses, Gabby leaned in and took more, never quite done with them. They weren't as heated and desperate as he'd been earlier, if only because he knew now that there would be plenty of time for things in the future. Efflo wanted that. He wanted that.
He didn't have to rush anymore.
"All right." Gabby murmured, pulling Efflo's lower lip between his teeth and sucking on it gently. "Then I'm done talking today."
And he made sure Efflo never got a chance to say another word for the rest of the night.
