Stories such as this one make me wonder how exactly can someone not approve these two and see them together? It has been, for me, a sort of growing up story more than just a normal love story. A story of how Loki went trough several things with several people and got the acceptance and found his place with more ease than, I think, he maybe believed he could. And all the time, in the background, there was Steve, such a sweet, compassionate and righteous yet in a way lonely character to begin with, that if someone then he is the one to understand Loki and even relate to him, wanting to understand what he has and still is going trough - and in the end finding himself loving him, and letting the poor Loki know what "love" is.

Gah, sorry, I'm babbling. This story actually made me think these things! I liked these two parts as much as I liked the first one. Wonderful, indeed. I liked the atmosphere very much, and how the story flowed. I hope to see more from you, and I wouldn't even mind if it was about these two (:

this is beautiful and I am full of so many feels! I love how you write all of them. my favorite bit was when Loki reverted to his Jotun form and then Steve warms his blue skin and ugh. so gorgeous.

I re-wrote that part so many times, so it's good to know people are into it! Thanks for letting me know. Hopefully there will be more Loki/Steve in this verse. :D

Thank you so much for sharing this! I loved that you took the time to get Steve and Loki to kiss, that really built it up into something pretty darn exciting. (happy sigh)

I agree that there's nothing better than a long build-up! Thanks so much for the nice comment! :D

Oh, my darlings, precious beautiful Loki and Steve. Love the explanation of Loki's motives, love how you draw out Loki and the Avengers/SHIELD adjusting to and coming to appreciate and trust each other, love Clint and everything he says and does, lovelovelove "Hulk take. Loki follow." This here is a keeper. *keeps*
