There was a pause as Ignis sighed and let his eyes close. He really was busy and he really did have a lot to do but he missed his partner. He hadn't had a chance to spend any time with him the past week save such indirect contact. Sure, he knew he'd have a ton of time with him during the upcoming full moon, but he wasn't sure he could wait. After all, Clarus had told him to spend time with his new mate, to nurture their bond and while he'd thought that was a bit silly when he'd heard it, he was starting to believe it.

"... I think I can manage a break. Just for you. Stop by when you want."

As he spoke, his voice shifted a little, dropping lower and softer, a more intimate sound and he had no idea it had happened.
