[Steve's eyes shut, just enjoying someone so close and so gentle. It does more for him than the making out from before to cement the idea that they were now in a relationship. A real one.]
It...where I was from, we had...you know. Names you'd call people you were with. Sweetheart, baby, honey, sugar... I mean. Most of them were for girls but...
[ are mortal pet names so banal? loki's expression twists before it settles on something more contemplative. he strokes steve's neck with a hum, tilting his head up at him, dark hair falling over his shoulders. ]
[The air is pulled from his lungs. How does Loki manage that with three words?
He answers with a deep kiss, one hand stroking against Loki's cheek, tracing his cheekbone. He barely pulls back, blue eyes darkened but warm with affection.]

Yeah. Me either, I guess. But I'm not saying anything that isn't true.
no subject
What do you think I would see, looking into your eyes, Steve Rogers?
no subject
[Steve turns his face into the touch, starved for affection like this.]
A kind man. One who's honest and maybe a little overly blunt, but... One who has a good heart inside.
no subject
No one has ever said such things about me. I couldn't even dream about it.
no subject
I'll make it a habit, then.
no subject
[ loki kisses the corner of steve's lips with a smile. ]
no subject
You got it, sweetheart.
[He flinches a little, not sure how the petname would land.]
Er. Or, Lok. Whatever you prefer...
no subject
"Sweetheart"?
no subject
It...where I was from, we had...you know. Names you'd call people you were with. Sweetheart, baby, honey, sugar... I mean. Most of them were for girls but...
[He shrugs.]
I can stick with your name only.

And you? My prince?
no subject
If you like. Though I'm not the prince of much these days.
no subject
[Steve pecks Loki's nose, stroking his hair back.]
My prince... If you'll accept the downgrade.
no subject
It will do.
no subject
I...should probably get outta your hair. Start planning a date.
no subject
Yes. I'm keen to see what this date will look like.
Saps
[Steve smiles, raising Loki's hand to his lips as he kisses the top.]
Till then, my prince.
no subject
We may make a knight of you yet.
no subject
Does that mean I get a horse and armor? You gonna give me your favor to wear?
no subject
Good luck having a horse on this ship. I suppose I can make a favor for you though.

no subject
I haven't decided it.
