[ Managing to get his pizza safely to one side, he clamps his other grip around those roving fingers to hold Billy's hand prisoner against the back of the couch. Not hurting him, just stopping him from moving. At all. ]
I don't know. Probably not. [ a pause to give it deeper consideration. ] I don't like the idea of sharing Teddy with someone else, anyway. But maybe it would have depended on who I dated.
No, not that, I don't think. Just-- you know, the idea of polyamory has never been anything Teddy and I considered. We've always been so wrapped up in one another.
[ he trails off, hesitant, then shrugs slightly. ] Maybe if I'd dated someone who'd introduced the idea, or we had a different dynamic. I'm pretty adaptable.
[ The way he finishes chewing, swallowing, and chases the sauce off the corner of his lips with a lick as he slides a Look at Billy, the patience of centuries in his eyes as they flick up-and-down over him.
The whole apartment shivers with a breath of Loki's magic, a subtle answering tremor. ]
[ he squawks at the pepper assault, ducking away from loki to the other end of the couch, but he's grinning as he straightens back up and stretches his legs out along the cushions. ]
I'm just saying, [ he says sagely, ] I've seen some nice outerwear ones. [ he pushes his toes under loki's thigh like it's going to keep them warm or something. ]
[ If his toes stay there long enough he might warm up Loki's leg. ]
As a connoisseur of corsets and scanty outfits, I feel like it's important to insist you have them made to your exact dimensions for your own comfort. It's been a while since I wore a bustier but it was not off the rack.
[ his grin drifts into fond territory. ] I'm not even a little surprised. Don't worry, I don't think I have the confidence for something like that, anyway.
[ somehow, the bodysuit of his uniform is easier to handle than the idea of wearing something that's technically lingerie as fashion. ]
I like when you wear outfits that show how long your legs are. [ even as deeply and happily married as billy is, loki's still enjoyable to look at. ] You used to wear this coat I thought framed you really nicely.
[ Ah, timelines. He looks down and a moment later his comfy clothes are scoured away by green magic, back in all his armour with his fur-necked green duster spread around his hips, scalemaille glinting down the curve of his slouched chest and long legs encased in black leather. His hair is a bit of a mess around his hastily donned horns because if he's going to wear the coat, he's going to go the whole hog.
[ but loki changes into the whole thing right there, and in spite of himself, billy's mouth does go a little bit dry. it's mostly the magic, because he loves loki's magic, and he loves it even more when it's so seamless, but let's be honest.. it's an outfit that seems tailor-made to billy's specific tastes. ]
Yep, [ he agrees with an embarrassed little laugh. ] That's the one. [ very pretty. ]
[ Oh. With a jerk of his chin, the coat vanishes from Loki and is being worn by Billy instead, a little too big but very cosy. Shadowthread from Svartalfheim along with fox fur is a great insulating combo. ]

Only if you get caught, dear.

I'd rather wait to find out what happens. I'm not ready for any Demiurge business anytime soon, anyway.
[ joke's on you, billy, considering recent comics. ]

Are you polyamorous, Billy? Billious? Billarium.

Scandalous ...

Maybe. [ He demurs to it with a shrug, tossing the TV remote to Billy's lap. ] Don't pick anything too naff.

[ there will be bodices and peasant shirts and petticoats. possibly also pirates if he can fit them all in. ]
