[They're in this together, so there's no hesitation in Aether. And yet he doesn't give a straightforward answer, mildly amused that his lover even needs a confirmation.]

Are you expecting me to say "no"? [He chuckles.] Of course I'll do everything I can to help.

[Because Childe is his life, his entire world. The prince will be forever dramatic about it. The other question is left unanswered for now, as Aether feels lips against his neck. His breath hitches, body reacting so easily to Childe's affection as the prince tangles their legs and presses close. His hands brush his lover's hair in slow, almost lazy manner and Aether tilts his head to the side, offering more of his neck.]

I... I'm not sure. Maybe... we still have an hour?

[He doesn't really want to think about it. He can imagine his own embarrassment when his servants see him or his bed. They will know for sure what happened here. But what's done is done. Aether wants nothing else but to savour the time he and his knight have left. He will treasure every second that Childe is willing to give him and he wishes for nothing else but to give his knight everything he has in return.]
