MCU :: Thor/Sif
"Ugh, you taste of mead and dried blood and half-spent adrenaline! Save your sloppy affections for one of your tavern wenches and leave me in peace."
Thor turns it over and over in his head while chilling his bruise with stolen ice from the kitchen. He cannot understand what part was so objectionable! He didn't mean anything by it, they were just celebrating and -- Sif happened to be there! When he tells Loki, Loki encourages him reasonably to tell Sif exactly that; surely she'll feel better if she knows it was only a mistake.
He winds up with another black eye, but even as her knuckles connect a very strange thought comes into his head and then refuses to leave him alone. Of course Sif is pretty, everyone knows that -- but she was beautiful when she struck him, and for just a moment he found...
Even knowing she would hit him for it, he wanted to kiss her again.
The sensible thing to do is ignore it, but he cannot. Suddenly it's all he can think of when they're together, and the distraction costs him sorely when they spar.
Sometimes -- not often, but sometimes -- Thor has sudden moments of inspiration, where he sees everything very clearly. He has one of them when he realizes that Sif's objection in the tavern was mostly to the tastes, and he's careful to have none of them on his tongue when he kisses her for the second time.
This time, there are no black eyes and no pain, but when he opens his eyes Thor finds her even more beautiful.
Kingdom Hearts :: Xigbar/Demyx
Anybody else caught shirking their duties completely to nap on a rooftop in the middle of the afternoon probably would've startled and made up guilty excuses. Demyx just said cheekily, "You're kind of in my light," without even opening his eyes.
Xigbar laughed. "Kid, I'm gonna miss you."
"Why, are you going somewhere?" So innocent, just like he didn't know exactly what Xigbar meant.
"We're both going somewhere," Xigbar decided, and extended a hand down to him. "Get up."
Demyx lowered his sunglasses and squinted up at him. "I'm doing recon," he said. "Really!"
He snorted. "It's probably just my early-onset dementia making me paranoid, but somehow I don't believe you. Get up."
"This roof is perfect," Demyx said instead of moving. "I'm totally gonna be tan by the end of the week. If I stay right here."
"You're breaking my heart, kid."
"I'm doing this for the Organization, you know. I mean, just think of how much better I'll blend in. Whoever heard of a bad guy with a tan?"
Well, you couldn't fault him for a lack of imagination. Or persistence. Xigbar rolled his eye. "Kinda think the boss has that covered already. Just get up."
"Well, sure," Demyx said. "But you can't use him as an example, he's got that whole evil-yellow-eyes-and-megalomaniacal-soliloquies thing going. There's only so much a tan can do. But on me..."
Xigbar barked out a laugh. "Evil yellow eyes, huh?"
"Don't worry, you make it look hot," Demyx said with perfect sincerity.
He was really, really going to miss this kid. Xigbar seized his arm and yanked him up into a hard, biting kiss -- and broke it just as fast.
"Glad to hear it. Now let's get to work, so Saix doesn't eat you."
