Theirs, naturally.

[ Only half a lie. He isn't sure he'd have actually survived, if Thor had not stormed in upon hearing the ruckus when he'd arrived for his own bath. Loki had near killed his assailant, yes, and the man was no more a danger to him, but he had also been bleeding heavily into moving water. ]

I'm fine, James.

[ he traces his fingertips down jim's cheek, along his jaw to press lightly against his lower lip ]

I trust you at my back.

Re: asgardian AU thing

[captainkink]

[ He blinks. Loki is not usually so forward in a public area. He glances around. ]

Well, yeah. You know I've got your back.

[ there are only a few other healers in the room and no one, at this exact moment at least, is watching. ]

Don't you dare betray me.

[ He glances back at him, worried. ]

Of course not.

Re: asgardian AU thing

[trickor]

I know. You won't.

Re: asgardian AU thing

[captainkink]

Well, I don't blame you for questioning me right now.

Re: asgardian AU thing

I'm not questioning you.

Re: asgardian AU thing

[captainkink]

Aren't you?

Re: asgardian AU thing

Re: asgardian AU thing

[captainkink]

You still look pretty shaken up.

[ But not all that surprised, somehow. Jim catalogues that for later. ]

Re: asgardian AU thing

Re: asgardian AU thing

Well, you didn't tell anyone, Loki!

Re: asgardian AU thing

[trickor]

Who would believe me?

Re: asgardian AU thing

Uhm, everyone?

Re: asgardian AU thing

[trickor]

[ ( UN S U RE ) ]

No. I would be told I'm being overly paranoid. That I'm doubting where I should not. That I'm seeing things that do not exist.

[captainkink]
