I wanted to cry while reading your pole, I would love to see it happen too, this really would be a kind and perfect path, my chest warmed with your words, I want to see it happen too, if that was final decision ... Asterion deserves the best of everything... If it ends up not happening that way, I would love to read a version of you writing in more detail, sure would make me cry like a little baby too
I mean with the ban on dating guests then who else has he been able to date for the last how many hundreds of years? The master? Typically women were not in positions of power very often more than a hundred years ago, so chances are most of the past hotels owners were men, maybe a few anthros as well? With homosexuality being more welcome now than it was back then the chances of Asterion dating a male Hotel owner had to have been slim to none. And he commonly refers to himself as a beast, as an abomination. For the owner of the hotel, a human owner, to lust after his physical form has to be unthinkable to him. I kind of want to see how he reacts to the furry community, that would be awkward and hilarious. Seriously though, this guy has never been seen as a treasure, and every night he goes to bed lonely. That first night of him sleeping in the Master's bed with the master snuggled up in his and happy to be there, the kind of thoughts that will be going through Asterion's soul & heart will be a war of doubt versus hope. I know I'll be hugging my pillow & weeping that night after reading that.
