[Oh. Oh, Loki.

Sephiroth doesn't know how to respond to that in the moment except to kiss him.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki kisses him back eagerly, salt on his lips. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth winds his fingers around to the back of Loki's neck, pulling him closer.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki wraps his arms around sephiroth, his fingers tightening around his shoulders. he's so loved. so unabashedly so. he knows being a frost giant doesn't mean much to sephiroth, but to loki, to overcome that, it was everything. it was a fear lodged so deep, he had been afraid of everyone in some small way. that revealing it would bring out the revulsion, the disgust.

but he was not something to be feared or hated.

perhaps he was finally someone to be loved. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth understands it, in his own way. He has his own hang-ups about not being human, when certainly that's never mattered to Loki. It's turned almost into a point of pride, because he'd rather be like Loki. He may only be able to shift into a facsimile of what Loki is, but that act is still one more thing they can share.

And it will never matter what form either of them takes. Maybe, he'll handle his own unease better next time.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ love, in all its forms. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[He leans his forehead against Loki's.]

...I love you.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he melts. it's rare for sephiroth to say it first. ]

I love you too.

[unkindled_madness]

[This might be the first time, really. It's still easier to say with actions, but this felt... right.]

No matter what.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he smiles. ]

No matter what.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth smiles back at him, and finally starts to shift the blue back out of his hands.]

...it isn't a bad look, you know.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his brow furrows. ]

What do you mean?

[unkindled_madness]

Your other form. I know you tend to view it as... monstrous.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he flinches. ]

What of it?

[unkindled_madness]

It has its appeal. That's all.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki purses his lips, unsure of how to respond. he doesn't want to lash out but he also doesn't know quite how to absorb that. ]

Perhaps.

[unkindled_madness]

...I just wanted to say it.

[He knows it must be a hard thing to process.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ his expression softens as he touches sephiroth's cheek. ]

I know.

[unkindled_madness]

Now maybe you'll have it to remember.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki hums. ]

Like you remember the things I told you.

[unkindled_madness]

Yes. They are... ammunition, at times.

[dothelokimotion]

Mm. Things to hold close to your heart.

[unkindled_madness]

For those moments when we aren't in each other's company.

[dothelokimotion]

As armor.

[unkindled_madness]

Mm. And we build it up stronger through repetition.
