[She smiles, shifting a little so that she can tug his head down a little, a brush of her lips against his. She was an affectionate person by nature, but with Rumlow that felt more acceptable than it was with most. She didn't have to resist the urge, worry that she was too much. And that was nice in and of itself.]
Mm, I'm sure you'd have made quite the dragonslayer. And a pet would have been nice, but we both know they'd never have never allowed me anything that breathed fire.
[As bad as that part of her life had been, talking with Rumlow about it was always easier than it was with most people. She didn't have to explain it, recount the worst of the trauma. They could just talk about things like this. Her first and only pet had been Sasha, the black stray cat that wandered in and out of her life until it had become part of it, and then she'd given her to Oksana.]
Well, I have gotten better with them. Or else I wouldn't have gone swimming with you, you know. Electricity and water aren't the best mix.
[There's a slight hint of warmth to her fact at that. But she just smiles, shrugs her shoulders a little and leans in toward him.] I don't think you need it. But just keep an eye on it, yeah? You have shards shooting from any other parts of your body talk to me? But, it could just be some weirdness with being in cryo. They say people falling back asleep is because of shards of the Storm. Maybe that's all that was.
[She slips an arm around him, leaning into his side.] Mm, you're adaptable. I'm sure you'd figure it out if it came down to it.
