Cid returns the kisses, hands in his hair, brushing way sticky strands and
the remains of tears. If they just don't speak, maybe they can stay like
this - stay as friends and lovers, not as rivals, or whatever nasty
construct Nero clearly thinks they are.
It occurs to him that for all that Nero treats them as competitors the
man's never directly moved against him, not since Praetorium. He's found
reasons to be near him, bickering all the while, but never..challenged him.
Cid chews his lip, musing on what that could mean.
Is it better if he...should Cid break the connection? Let Nero live his own
life?
