sad bird in snow: And Amaranth can handle the finer points of that education now.

[He ducks into a roll on the landing, but considering this was such a predictable Jason dick move, he's already readied his arm for another shot - to grab Jason and pull him into that hug he's definitely not escaping.]
C'mere!
C'mere!
[he could cut the wire-- he has the weapon to do it.
but also, he's not gonna. there's a brief pause where he lets it happen]
That's the first thing you wanna do?

Thanks Jason. I love it.

Thanks Jason. I love it.
I mean, you're kinda stuck with it. Unless you wanna throw it in the garbage.
Red Bull gives you wings: I can only do my best as a wife but
Red Bull gives you wings: Unfortunately I can never be best wife ever when the current title holder is so strong
Red Bull gives you wings: You think Amaranth will adopt Adora too?
Red Bull gives you wings: I think they both need uh education

sad bird in snow: Well, I know Amaranth was fond of the one who was on avante in the past, so it wouldn’t surprise me if she did
sad bird in snow: I’m sure she’d at least be willing to help her out

No way. This is my new go-to arm now.
[Beaming, he pulls back to admire Jason's face for a second, before rewarding him with a joyful kiss.]

Red Bull gives you wings: Maybe a fellow military woman can explain the concept of love to her better
[well-- that he will take, since he missed his kisses anyway.]
Well, you're welcome.
[he mutters against his lips]
Well, you're welcome.
[he mutters against his lips]
[Murmurs, still smiling irrepressibly,]
I love you.
[Nero runs his hand through Jason's hair, a chuckle in his chest]
Happy anniversary?
I love you.
[Nero runs his hand through Jason's hair, a chuckle in his chest]
Happy anniversary?
[as he starts to incline his head into nero's touch, he pauses upon realization that he actually kind of likes hearing those words, but breezes past it before he can get stuck too long,]
We made it one full set of holidays past the first time you asked me if sleeping with me made you loose.
[time 2 tease]

[HUFFS]
Well, I'm committed now, so - problem solved.

Problem solved, huh.
[he steals a brief kiss from him]
Sure, somehow we worked around to that. To an anniversary.

[Sensing Jason's Jasonness, Nero strokes his hair some more]
Not something you're used to, huh.
Not something you're used to, huh.
4 months isn't want someone thinks of when they go for an anniversary.
[he pauses]
But it's hell, so who knows.
[he pauses]
But it's hell, so who knows.
[Quietly,]
Feels longer.
It feels like I've been in love with you for years, y'know.

[he doesn't even know if he's ever had stability for four months, so,]
What does that mean?
[he half laughs in uncertainty as he says it]

I thought you were fascinating from your very first day.
You've taught me more and I've grown more from loving you than... anyone else.
[Even Shrike, who - though they had hurdles of their own, had always been the kind of person Nero wanted, and adored. Jason had been unexpected-- at times, a revelation of things Nero didn't even know about himself.]

[oh.
he doesn't even know how to react to that. part of him wanted to laugh it off, tell him it was a mistake. and then there was the part that desperately wanted to hear things like that.
he sighs, and his smile softens]
There's that romantic side again. And here I thought you were gonna say I gave you gray hair or something.

sad bird in snow: I've tried but maybe it has to be a proper credentialed war hero
sad bird in snow: Only the best for our cat(girl).
sad bird in snow: Only the best for Bianco, too, but I don't think he needs the explanation.

[Jason's the one whose hair changed--
Nero snorts fondly and twines the shock of white between his fingers]
How would I even tell with hair like mine?

Red Bull gives you wings: War hero plus mom voice
Red Bull gives you wings: Unstoppable combination
Red Bull gives you wings: I hope she's doing better. I may have accidentally made her cry on her first day???

sad bird in snow: Ah, really—
