There was the flightier, more romantic part of Daenerys that was wondering just now why people seemed so -- afraid of this, perhaps? Wary of it? It seemed like a beautiful thing to her, as long as it was done right (she shuddered to think of the alternative, which was plenty frightening but in a wholly different way). But then, maybe it was rare for it to happen just as it had, so intimately not just between bodies but between people.

She smiled rather dazedly at that, opting to kiss him in return, lips then cheek then lips again, instead of saying anything just yet.
