"Well, I don't know if someone like me can ever be truly be happy," Maul said in a thoughtful tone. He still was wary of the emotion, afraid that if he tried to indulge in it too much that source of happiness would be taken away from him in a swift, brutal fashion. "But.....I'm more at peace with myself now. Calmer and less in turmoil than I have always been." That was good enough for Maul.

Maul felt a thrill run up the organic half of his spine at the idea of seeing Reaper doing what he did best. He ran his hand through Reaper's hair, stroking the long locks over and over again in a contented fashion. "That would be amazing to see."

"The start of a true rescue romance," Maul said with a grin, purring happily at the memory of their first meeting. "I never had the slightest idea we'd end up here today from where we started out as at that point." But truly he'd been a little smitten with Reaper right from the start, enjoying the light flirting that the two had engaged in at the time.
