"If he disappears tomorrow, I'm going to fetch him immediately," Jedao promises, settling in draped against Hakkai's back, pressing a soft kiss to the back of his neck.

Between what happened the last time Eiffel returned to his universe, and the shitshow of John, Arthur, and Edwin dealing with the same thing, Jedao is no longer willing to wait on the barge to return people he cares about. And Shen Wei has been in a coma for ages, Jedao is getting antsy. He can spare the time.

He also slips an arm around Hakkai's waist, holding him steady and close. He doesn't ruck up Eiffel's shirt yet or do anything with his pants, but - he's in position.
