Eddie's eyebrow arched up as his gaze dragged away from his keyboard and towards Sigyn's bare legs, tracing up to where the apex of her thighs was hidden by the hem of the hoodie she'd stolen borrowed from him. It didn't pass him by, either, the sight of two distinct points poking through the fabric, nor the flush of her cheeks despite the look of disapproval on her face.

"Hardly call it teasin'," he replied, a hint of playfulness in his tone. "Just 'cause I'm tellin' the truth when I say you're the most beautiful woman I ever opened my eyes to... an' that you deserve the world... an' your hair looks great an' I'll never get enough'uh your scent? I mean, can we really call that teasin'?"

Then he slid one hand across to land on her leg. "Unless this was the part that got you worked up?" He passed his palm upward, his fingertips tracing against her inner thigh. "Maybe it was the part where I stopped 'cause I said I should know better than to get distracted by how perfect you are?"

"If I wanted your opinion on the matter, don't you think I would have given it to you so you could give the correct answer when I asked? Just hand it over!"

"I just.... can't get him out of my head.."

Seated beside Sigyn with legs dangling over the edge of the cliff, Bill's gaze could easily have been mistaken for attending the vista of oceanic splendor before them. But in fact he wasn't looking at the water, nor really at anything else in particular. He was still coping with the knowledge that Asgard had suffered a fate similar to that of his own homeworld. Two realms, now, galaxies apart and yet still brought to the same end -- by the very same demon, no less.

What an irony that the creature which had doomed his world had, in an odd and twisted way, been salvation for the refugee gods.

And it was no secret to him which god she spoke of now. He rested his elbows on his knees and laced his fingers together. "Loki."

He didn't quite peer at her directly, but he shifted the tilt of his head to put her at his periphery. "With every measure of respect I have for you, milady... I realize Loki was your anchor, but he was also, at times, your shackle. Does he haunt your heart?"

“I hate that I’m going to out live you…”

Eddie's hand had been carding gently through Sigyn's hair while she lay with her head nestled against his shoulder, but his eyes had been lidded and staring without focus in the general direction of the ceiling until the moment she uttered her unfiltered thought. His eyes opened fully and he turned to look at her, an expression of both surprise and heartache suddenly rupturing his features. It took him a moment to summon any kind of response; when he did, it sounded evasive even to his own ears.

"Sig... where did that even come from?"
