For Richard

[notallworthy]

After the meeting with the gentleman Tom is looking for Richard to tell him the (supposedly) good news. He has the apple in one hand, munching on it distractedly, and a white rose in the other. Every now and then he calls out Richard's name.

Richard, after meeting with Ada, decided to take a very long walk. He is just now starting to head back for the Mansion, and hesitates when he hears Tom calling him. However, he can't hide indefinitely, so he heads in the direction of Tom's voice.

Tom smiles when he sees him coming. "Richard!"

He smiles a bit, though he looks closed off, a bit like he did when he first came back from the dead (though Tom might not remember, given his own state at the time). "Hello, Tom."

Tom waited until Richard was in range before kissing him. It was long, rough, and definitely not platonic.
