Oh?

[ it doesn't surprise him in the least. ]

And here I thought mortals only cared for one kind.

[winscenario]

Of course we don't. There are a lot of different kisses. Victor kisses me on the forehead when I have nightmares, for instance. That's not the same as when we kiss on the lips, or when we're downright making out. A kiss can mean a lot of different things.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he raises an eyebrow. ]

Your Victor is old-fashioned.

[winscenario]

[ Jim looks a little surprised by that, but also amused. ]

What makes you say that?

[dothelokimotion]

Even I know that much about mortals.

[winscenario]

So we're all old-fashioned now?

[dothelokimotion]

No, just the one you know. As I said, I'm familiar enough with mortals that they rarely linger in the past unless they hold a grudge.

[winscenario]

Sometimes it's not about lingering. Sometimes it's about just... remembering. Learning from our experiences, and our mistakes.

[dothelokimotion]

[ sounds fake but ok. ]

And what have you learned?

[winscenario]

You want me to list out all the lessons that I've learned throughout my life? Right now?

[ It's a lengthy list. Some things more important than others, granted, but still. ]

[dothelokimotion]

Not all, of course. But I assume there's a pertinent one in there.

[winscenario]

Not any that were coming to mind at the moment. Right now, I'm thinking that "look up before you step through a doorway" is a good one, though.

[ Whatever, this isn't a doorway, but Loki gets his point. ]

[dothelokimotion]

[ he chuckles. ]

Fair enough. That is suitable advice.

[winscenario]

See? We all learn. Even from the little things.

[ He nods up at the mistletoe. ] So what do you say we get out of here? I don't know about you, but I've got stuff to do. People to see.

[dothelokimotion]

And you presume I don't? I am a Captain here after all.

[ with that, loki plucks jim's hand to press a kiss to his knuckles. ]

[winscenario]

[ Jim opens his mouth to say something, only to smile, tickled pink when Loki takes his hand and kisses it. ]

Aren't you a charmer. [ He winks playfully. ] Alright then, Captain. I think we're both free to go our own ways now.

[dothelokimotion]

So it seems.

[ a short mocking bow. ]

Farewell.
