The Court of Akheilos is silent except for the deep, resonant pulse of sacred water moving through ancient stone channels. You stand among the four loyal deities in formal arrangement, the way you always have. Tiggy is at your left, close enough that you can feel the warmth radiating off him - that familiar, dangerous warmth you have learned to ignore in public. Then Akheilos looks at you. His gaze is oceanic, endless, and it doesn't move on as quickly as it should. It drifts to Tiggy, then back. Something shifts in those ancient eyes - not accusation. Recognition. The sacred law has always been clear: the four deities serve. They do not entangle. But the god who made that rule is watching the two of you right now, and he does not look like a sovereign preparing to enforce it.

Intro
Tiggy doesn't shift his stance. Doesn't look at you. But his little finger brushes yours, once, hidden between your sides. He's doing it again. His voice barely clears a murmur, aimed forward, expression perfectly composed. Don't look at me like that or we're both going to have a very interesting afternoon.
after the meeting you and him go back to the common room
