[There were some days they didn't need to talk much. He and Savage could go a whole day with only a growl in the morning of acknowledgement to one another. During the days where Trench wasn't tormenting them, Maul would hang about the house quietly meditating or reading while Savage was in another room working on Legos or teaching Ruin not to stuff everything into his mouth that he could reach with his tentacles.
Maul was busy trying to discover which piece to put down on their current model when Savage came in. Never one much for physical touch, even when he initiated it, Maul let himself be pulled onto his brother's shoulder. After a moment where his body tensed up, the muscles in Maul's form relaxed and he began to calm down. His eyes closed, and while the events of the past month had left him too downhearted to find his purr, he did feel a sense of peace at the sign of his brother's affectionate nature. One hand came up to rest against his little brother's broad chest. He sighed heavily, just letting the two of them rest there for a few minutes before he felt ready to speak.]
