It had been a little while since they had reconnected, but for the time being - her anger at him had been expended on each other in an intimate way and not much through words. She would be angry with him silently, he would turn sweet on her, she would try to give him the cold shoulder, he’d tease his mark on her withers, they’d be … indisposed for a while … then before he could broach the topic of how in trouble he was, Antares needed him to discuss the particulars of their border patrols again.
Finally tonight he’d told Antares that he was not going to patrol until he’d finally had it out with his Wife. It was impossible, living this doghouse life. She needed to properly rage at his absence, to properly glean her pound of his flesh for his sons growing up without him.
His back mirrors the night sky by the time he returns to his oasis where he and Eness would be waiting to hear from Antares the good news that he’d found Aldebaran and Rigel at last. "Eness?? Love, we need to talk about this..." He steps into the well greened border of their oasis home. "Not how we’ve been talking but not talking-- I miss having you smile at me." He sounds a bit pleading, but also contrite - knowing he hadn’t any right to ask her to be kind to him. "What can I do?"
