“White-feathered ravens are an anomaly,” Loki teases, as I look at the new white streak of hair near my ear.
“Well, I never thought I’d see one, that’s for sure.”

“I’m too tired.”
“Perfect time for laughter,” Loki suggests.
“I’m awake drunk,” I giggle.

“Are you okay?” Loki asks intently.
“Yes. No. Yes and no. Maybe.”
His face splits in a grin that’s contagious.
“Better than okay?” he nudges.
I feel it out.
“Hmm, yes, it appears that you are better…
than okay.”
“Absolute flirt!” I burn crimson, and he relishes every bit.
An Intimate Lokean Devotional
“Let’s play farm. I’ll be the pig…. and you be my trough.”
His expression tells me he’s serious.
“Okay.”
“Excellent! Lie over there. Now I’ll wear this blindfold and find you using only my keen senses.”
Loki ties a black scarf behind his head as I do as I’m told.
Later, I cry-laughter.
“I didn’t know it could be fun.”
“What, Dear pet?”
“Mating.”
“Oh, right… is that okay?”
“Better than okay.”

“I’m the Baker, and I’d like to frost your cupcakes.” One eyebrow twitches.
He mirrors my grin, hands on his hips.
“Good. It’s settled then. Try not to move. This is delicate work.”
Loki warns.
I fail immediately, of course.
