"So, you do something ridiculous to pay me back."

“Extravagant, then.”
He picked up a little lock of hair that had fallen onto his lap and studied it in resignation before dropping it again, feeling rather ridiculous in his own right.

The haircut took quite a while, but Teja was decently satisfied with it. And it didn't look half bad on Adrian, either - he simultanously looked youthful and older, so like a particularly youthful and athletic looking silver fox.

“Will you stop worrying now that you’re two for two on doing it well?” Adrian asked as he dusted himself off in the mirror.

“Never mind. I’m being uncharitable. If I’m honest, I’ve never quite understood why you enjoy my company.”

"Because you're really hot. And a good conversationalist."

He laughed as though startled.
“All right, I’ll accept that. To tell you the truth, I don’t really get what’s supposed to be particularly attractive about myself, but I’d be a liar if I said I mind it.”

She touched his jawline. "Good bone structure. A lot of charisma. I mean, for a long time, I just thought you were okay looking. I told Loki there was no chance of... any of this. So I think we just have chemistry, as they say."

“Broken bone structure,” he reminded her, chucking her lightly on the chin with his good thumb. “But I’ll take it. Thank you, sweetheart.”
He kissed her forehead with a careful bend at the waist to avoid covering her in cut hair.

"....go take a shower," she murmured.

Adrian stopped halfway up from kissing her and spread his left hand over her throat.
“Ah,” he said. “That should work after all.”

While in the bathroom again, following his shower, Adrian was forced to concede that Teja had been right, and he was going to need professional assistance after all. She had, however, done a really quite good job for now, so he would be keeping that part to himself. He dressed and combed his hair- or what was left of it, and then he felt annoyed and a little amused at himself for thinking of it that way- and rejoined Teja in the office, with the amusement having won out on his face.
“I feel like I should offer you a drink,” he said, “but I’m afraid I don’t have much.”
