So you say.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki's brows furrow, confused. ]

It's the truth.

[unkindled_madness]

I don't have enough experience with him to judge it for myself.

And I don't trust your assesment of yourself.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki . . . doesn't know what to say to that. he rubs his palms together, picking at the skin. ]

I'm sure there are plenty who could confirm that. He's a well known hero.

[unkindled_madness]

So was I.

[And he's sure not a compassionate person.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ he shakes his head. ]

I mean, like those superheroes are supposed to be. He cares about people.

[unkindled_madness]

I know you mean that.

But, you are the one who cares about me.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his expression softens. ]

I do.

[unkindled_madness]

...I suppose my assessment would hardly be unbiased either.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his lips twitch into a smile. ]

Well, if we're both biased, I think we can live with it.

[unkindled_madness]

Yes, it should balance out.

[dothelokimotion]

Perfectly, I think.

[unkindled_madness]

For now, anyway.

[dothelokimotion]

Ah . . . yes. Of course.

[ had he overstepped? probably. still, it's fine. ]

[unkindled_madness]

I mean, I intend to sway your opinion.

[dothelokimotion]

[ oh. that's very sweet, actually. loki smiles at him. ]

I look forward to it.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth's expression softens.]

As do I.

[dothelokimotion]

Mm.

[ he nearly says thank you again but instead he reaches for sephiroth's hand to squeeze it gently. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth closes his fingers around Loki's hand, just for a moment.]

...are you always so affectionate with your friends?

[dothelokimotion]

No. Just you.

[unkindled_madness]

[He blinks, not sure what to make of that.]

Oh...

[dothelokimotion]

I've never held hands with my friends. If you can call them that.

[unkindled_madness]

Have you wanted to?

[dothelokimotion]

Not with people who are just friends. But people who are more.

[unkindled_madness]

[Like best friends, obviously! But Sephiroth frowns faintly in confusion.]

But, from your perspective, we've not known each other very long.
