Loki had finished unpacking, so most of his side of the bed was covered in far too many green and gold items of clothing.
He tapped Teja on the shoulder with a peach.

Teja didn't recognize what was touching her and looked over her shoulder.
"Loki, I brushed my teeth."

"Mmp. Very well."
Loki moved a few of his belongings to the side and lay down beside her, at an unintrusive distance.
"...you know," Loki said after a pause, "there's quite a lot I understand better now. 'Born to be a king' and all that. And don't even start me on this..."
Loki's voice had shifted again midsentence, becoming higher and clearer until it had a traditionally feminine ring to it to go along with the cisfeminine shape his body had taken on.
"I cannot take back the time I've lost, but a future of knowing..."
It then flickered across Loki's mind that the same understanding that he wasn't a physical freak after all still ensured that this was still something the majority of Asgard could never know about. Being half a woman might have been understandable on its own, but half a Jotun- probably less, actually- far less so. Loki scowled and shifted back.
"Mmm. Darling," he said, "you needn't decide immediately. I can stall as much as I need to. You-"
He kissed the back of her shoulder.
"-have all the time you need. Rest, love."
And that was when he bit the jut of her shoulder, lightly and teasingly.

In less than the best mood and startled with this when she wasn't looking at him, it did not have what she suspected was Loki's intentional effect.
She lay back enough to move her hand over and flick him sharply in the forehead.

"Ack-"

"See how it feels?" she said, too-sweetly, as though she were pissed at him, but with an underlying slyness she couldn't entirely keep out of her voice.

"No, no," he said, pointing a finger at her, "that was a flick. What I gave you was a bite-"
He reached for her hand to repeat the demonstration.

She rolled over onto her side, now facing him. "And it still hurt-"
She knitted her eyebrows together in a slightly exaggerated way at the new bite.

"There, I'm sorry," he said, leaning forward to kiss the place where her brows knit. "Wouldn't want to be unseemly, would we?"

"Why are you even biting me?"

"I thought it harmless. Clearly I was mistaken," he said in mock seriousness, cupping one side of her face with his hand.

"Well, you weren't even doing it in the right spot," she argued.

"Ah," he said, lifting his eyebrows and looking intrigued. "Where, then-"

She could already feel her cheeks burning. "Well, if I have to tell you then it's not any fun, is it?"

"Oh, so that's how it is, leaving it to me to find out-"
He pulled her to him and buried his face in her clean-smelling hair with a laugh.
