“I kind of want either an IronMan or Captain America bear. What do you think?” You stand, perusing the available bears lined up with a hand on your chin. Kilgrave shifts next to you with a noise of disgust.
“Why would you want either of those?”
You lower your hand and greet him with a grin. “Why not?”
“They destroyed New York and Sokovia and that one airport. They aren’t very good superheroes.”
You scoop one of the hero bears and rub its head. “They have Stark to pay for damages.”
“And those lives lost?”
You pause a beat, then peer at him curiously. He stares down at you inquisitively, waiting with arms crossed for an answer. You wet your lips. “Why do you care?”
He shrugs. “I don’t- just questioning your morals. Go stuff a bear.”
You obey even though you had already planned to, having grabbed one of the Marvel bears to fill up with stuffing. Gesturing with your head, you tell him he should get one, too. With an incredulous look, he shakes his head.
“This place is for babies,” he protests.
“Then you’re a baby, too, because you’re getting one. Come on, for me?” You shoot him a pout before selecting a heart for your bear.
His nostrils flare before grabbing a stuffed animal at random without looking- a bunny with petals all over it. He stares at it in confusion for a good five seconds before tossing it back in its piles, then he comes upon a black dragon- Toothless.
After you put a heart into your bear, you turn to find him holding the dragon and squeal. “You should get that one!”
He lowers his eyes at you disapprovingly but keeps the dragon anyways. “The things I do for you,” he mutters, stepping to your side to select a couple of hearts to put into the dragon once it’s been stuffed.
“Why are you getting two hearts?”
“Hm?” He looks up at you from the dragon and shrugs. “Why not?”
You just hug your bear with a laugh and smile at him. “Ready then?”
He drapes his arm around your shoulders, letting Toothless dangle near your Marvel. “Do we really have to pay?”
“Yes.”
A sigh and a playful glare. “The things I do for you.”
You get up on your toes and sneak a peck onto his cheeks. “Thank you!”
