Oh, well that's rather nice, actually. Darling tucks up against Alan, tugging the blanket a bit to drape it around the both of them. For warmth, of course.

And fuck it, because it's nice. Because he hasn't cuddled with anyone in a long damn while.

"In general. I find you fascinating. Not because you're an author, I don't -- " He waves a hand a little, dismissing the idea that Alan is interesting because he writes books. Darling's written a book, it's not that interesting to him. "Doesn't matter. I'm sure they're very nice books, but I haven't read most of them."

He's skating around things. Alan doesn't know about his work, which is as it should be. The FBC isn't meant to operate in the public eye. But how do you tell someone that you've researched them? It feels like an awkward topic to just dive into.
