Panic Attack - Emmrich Volkarin x NB!Rook

Anxiety is building. It fills them up, making their nerves fire all at once. Not even the anxious fidgeting is helping - that which has always been a tell that something is wrong.

“Tarquin must have loved you.”

No, he hadn't.

“Went on a stake out with him once. Turns out I “fidget too much”.”

But this wasn't a stake out. This was the real deal, and everything began to add up. D'meta's crossing, Treviso blighted, Weisshaupt. And even though they had managed to fight two - two - blighted dragons in Hossberg, they felt as if they were breaking under the pressure. 

Walking aimlessly through the Lighthouse, their feet seem to have led them to the only person who might have a solution. 

They hesitantly knocked on Emmrich's door, opening it before the professor had a chance to respond, walked in and began pacing back and forth in front of the desk.

The professor looked up from the letter he was in the middle of writing, a pleasant smile on his lips.

“Ah, Ro-” He immediately grew quiet when he saw the state they were in, a worried frown settling in between his brows.

He got up from the chair, stepping to place himself in their path. When they stood before him, he gently placed his hands on their shoulders - determinedly, but not forcefully, keeping them still.

“Taleasin.” Their name rolled off his tongue, like water into a goblet, and it was enough to break the worst of the anxious trance.

They looked up at Emmrich, meeting his gentle brown eyes. There was unspoken worry in them as they slowly and meticulously traced Taleasin's features, as if he was trying to read his mind.

“My dear, what has caused you such distress?”

Taleasin lowered their gaze, fixating it on their hands that were still fidgeting - now with the seam of their sleeve. 

“Everything I do -”

“Is good enough,” Emmrich's voice was gentle but firm. “I do not want you to think otherwise, even for a second.”

The elf raised their gaze again, but struggled to meet the professor's. “But -”

Emmrich let his hands slowly travel down Taleasin's arms, making small circular movements as they did. Once he reached their hands he took them, holding them and tracing small circles into their palms with his thumbs. 

“I can not even begin to fathom the pressure you are under, my dear, but there is one thing I know for certain - you are doing everything you can.” He leaned forth slightly, just enough to press a gentle kiss to their forehead. “You have the biggest heart I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, Tal, and I am forever grateful that you allow me to share in it with you. But do promise me one thing.”

“Whatever you want.”

“That you come to me, immediately, when these thoughts intrude.”

Taleasin, feeling more calm than they had done in days, nodded slowly. “I promise.”

A satisfied smile graced Emmrich's lips and he leaned in again, this time catching Taleasin's lips in a loving kiss. “Good, dearest.”
