[Dan Heng will pretend he doesn't see that softness in Blade's eyes. He's having to contend with a lot of soft and warm feelings of his own right now. The older man can safely say that he likes Blade, but he doesn't want to admit how much. In his mind, it's almost too fast. Too easy. Even his small crush on Theo took years to develop, though he did squash those feelings for... reasons. Reasons that dealt with a certain, toxic woman in Theo's life.

Plus, there's that damn demon to consider in all of this. That puts a mountain in the way of pretty much anything other than friendship right now. Annoying. Frustrating. And Dan Heng will never admit that.]

[Yes, it's a dragon. A familiar dragon.]
