[ it was a long trek to get where they needed to go. there were more tourist-traveled paths. safer ones. but this one comes from memories long past so loki let his feet guide him to where they needed to be. it's strange. the land has changed, the people has changed and yet, it feels no different, even on this unknown earth.

perhaps that is simply the nature of gods. their stories tie them everywhere.

he glances at sephiroth. ]

You're not cold are you?

[Sephiroth winds his other arm around Loki's waist and pulls him close. It's nice to have the warmth of it, too.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ it certainly is. loki curls his arms around sephiroth's neck, deepening the kiss. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[It's such a natural thing for them by now, fitting together like this, although the closeness is somewhat hindered by the winter clothes. Sephiroth tightens his grip a bit, compensating with pressure.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki chuckles a little, pressed close. ]

Do you want to try shifting?

[unkindled_madness]

...if it's all right with you.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki lets out a quiet breath. ]

I think . . . I'd like to try it.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth smiles softly at that.]

Then let's try it.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he smiles back as he lets his form shift to blue and red. ]

Whenever you're ready.

[unkindled_madness]

[He draws back a little, though never completely letting Loki out of his grasp, as though touch even through the barrier of clothing will help him mimic the form. He closes his eyes, focusing on how it felt before. He shifts slowly, blue at last climbing up his neck and spreading across his face.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki waits until the colour settles before reaching out to brush his fingers over sephiroth's cheek. it still takes him aback but . . . the loathing, the fear no longer seems to be present.

this is the man he loves after all. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth looks back at him, eyes still green in the blue face.]

...this does feel more comfortable.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he can't help but smile at that. ]

I'm glad. It takes some getting used to.

[unkindled_madness]

The cold doesn't bite, I mean.

[But he does turn his attention to his hands, tugging off one glove experimentally.]

[dothelokimotion]

That too.

[ he holds his hand out. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth takes it, curling his bare fingers around Loki's.]

[dothelokimotion]

. . . It's nice, actually.

[unkindled_madness]

...to be able to do this?

[dothelokimotion]

To touch someone like this.

[unkindled_madness]

It makes me glad that I am... whatever I am.

[dothelokimotion]

It does?

[unkindled_madness]

You were always so afraid of this form. [As Sephiroth is of his own, at times.]

But this way... we fit together.

[dothelokimotion]

. . . You're right.

[ he threads their fingers together. ]

Like two halves meeting.

[unkindled_madness]

We suit each other in a way no others could.

[dothelokimotion]

That's right.

My perfect match.

[unkindled_madness]

[He leans his forehead to Loki's. They've never kissed like this, but...]
