Nico receives a letter inviting him to a house of curiosities. He’s running late and skips out on a required errand for Vander. Displeased by his lover’s disobedience, Vander “punishes” Nico accordingly. But it is not the punishment that brings Nico to tears… it’s the affirmation that follows.
“Tears” isn’t about crying so much as it is about holding the space for tears to flow. It means creating a deep level of trust and safety; when we cry, we are vulnerable and open. Seeing that level of vulnerability in a lover – and receiving those tears – is a tremendous and sacred gift.
