[dothelokimotion]

Yes. Red in colour, I believe.

[unkindled_madness]

[He is slightly surprised it wasn't chocolate.]

Where did you get it?

[dothelokimotion]

They were selling them at Sunset Falls.

[ his fingers tighten around sephiroth and he feels — oh, his feelings are fit to burst. he presses a kiss to his neck. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Oh... Okay. He's not really going to protest kisses.]

And you couldn't resist?

[dothelokimotion]

[ is he getting warmer? it's like it is burning through. his skin starts to flicker from pale to cold blue. ]

It seemed harmless.

[unkindled_madness]

Fair enough.

I'm sure it will pass.

[Although he frowns faintly at that flicker of color. Loki's hands feel awfully warm.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ he's gone fully blue but he hasn't noticed yet. ]

Of course. It's nothing.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth doesn't want to pull away but also... ow. His expression tightens.]

Certainly in the scheme of things.

[dothelokimotion]

It doesn't seem too — [ oh. he freezes at the sight of his hand and yanks himself away forcibly, nearly calling at his skin. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth lets out a breath and inspects his hands. He can heal this.]

It's all right.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he's staring at his hands in abject horror. he's never burned anyone. he had been so careful. and the terror that sweeps through him is overpowering. his breath comes out in sharp bursts and he continues to back away. ]

No. No. It's not. I need to — I have to —

[ he's not sure. leave? run? his nails dig into his skin. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[A soft green glow settles over Sephiroth's hands, and then he looks up.]

Loki-

I'm fine. It's nothing.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki shakes his head. ]

I've never — I never. I'm not like that!

[unkindled_madness]

Not like... what?

[dothelokimotion]

Like them.

That's why everyone left, isn't it? Because I keep hurting and hurting and hurting. It never ends, it never stops.

[unkindled_madness]

You are like no one else. And I am not leaving.

[dothelokimotion]

Then maybe — maybe I should leave. I should — I should do something.

[ his cadence is unlike himself and the heat feels so palpable now, like his emotions overrunning his thoughts and reason. ]

[unkindled_madness]

Absolutely not. You are staying here with me, and we will see this through together.

[dothelokimotion]

[ that tempers the panic a little. ]

It's too hot. I can't turn back.

[unkindled_madness]

It's temporary. You only need make it to the other side of this.

[dothelokimotion]

What if it doesn't go away?

[unkindled_madness]

Your control will return.

But, this is a part of who you are, anyway.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he sounds miserable. ]

I burned you. I never wanted to do that.

[unkindled_madness]

I did stab you once. Perhaps we're even.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki doesn't see it that way. ]

That was different. This is who I am. I hurt you by being who I am.
