[Peter waggled his eyebrows at her as she flashed him a little leg as she moved the hospital gown. The wound wasn't all that bad, or at least he assumed so considering how small the bandage was.]

Oh no yet, but once the bandage comes off there'll be more to see. Should I get you a crop top you can wear to show it off?

[He smiled and kissed the top of her head.]

Anything for you. But you have to tell me if you're seriously so I can actually get one.

[wolf_blood]

[She rolled her eyes at him, like he didn't see that regularly, but she was still smiling too, and she might have curled closer when he kissed the top of her head, purely coincidental of course.]

That's the most tempting a crop top has ever been, but I still don't think it's very me.

I think I'd definitely enjoy it but it's really up to you. If it influences your decision - I'm not supposed to do anything, y'know, fun, for at least a couple weeks. [Arya actually had no memory of how long they had told her to refrain from physical exertion.]

[whateveraspidercan]

[He was happy to let her stay as close as she wanted since that the moment his reaction was to keep her absolutely as close as possible. She was okay, he could see that, but he was still a little worried and shaken up about it.]

That's alright. I'll get one just to drive you crazy and leave you all frustrated for when you're finally better. [You know, if he didn't die after going two weeks without sex. It was dumb to think that was such a long time since he'd gone his entire life without it before now but it would be the longest they'd gone without it since they started.]

[wolf_blood]

[She knew that, and he was doing so well at letting her be weird and particular about this, and after that two weeks, she would properly show her appreciation.]

I guess that's fair, I've done that to you plenty for small stretches. [She wasn't going to let him DIE. They could get creative.]

[whateveraspidercan]

I promise I'm going to take good care of you without making it seem like I'm smothering you.

[Because she would let him know if he was smothering so he didn't have to worry about that.]

You can keep a journal. Every time you want to do something to me write it down and then we'll do it once you're better.

[wolf_blood]

I don't know how you manage to be so patient.

[She would. So far he was doing really well at not making her do that, though, and that was a really good sign he would be able to keep his promise anyways.]

If I keep a diary of every dirty thought I have about you for two weeks, I'll never stop writing things down.

[whateveraspidercan]

You make it easy. Like... if I screw up you’ll let me know so I can do better but you won’t judge me.

[He gave a shrug at that. There was kind of the most freeing thing ever and one reason he felt like he could relax around her.]

Wow. That’s a lot of dirty thoughts there, Miss Stark.

[wolf_blood]

No, I won't judge you. You don't judge me for being weird about stuff like this.

[She understand that feeling entirely, he gave her that freedom too.]

I just can't seem to help myself.

[whateveraspidercan]

I'd never judge you for that. Maybe about other things like your choice in guys but not that.

[Peter gave her a smile to know that he was just teasing her and not putting himself down.]

You should write a few down. For posterity.

[wolf_blood]

I'm assuming you mean how extremely specific it is?

[That was good. She hadn't necessarily gotten out all the punchiness earlier, and she didn't actually know if she would get punchy with him over him, but it probably wasn't impossible.]

I thought the idea was I was going to write them all down?

[whateveraspidercan]

Seriously. Superhero nerds you took the virginity of and were your friends before you started sleeping and dating with them is a super narrow criteria.

[Eh, if she needed to get punchy to him about him he was okay with that.]

But then you'd be writing all the time. You can just do some of your favorites.

[wolf_blood]

Well, I'm picky. Wouldn't you say I should only have the best?

[So she was still witty on pain meds, that was good to know.]

I suppose I can use that to entertain myself when you aren't around while I'm still stuck resting.

[whateveraspidercan]

Yeah you definitely don't set the bar low.

[And maybe now was not the time to talk about it but he really meant that about her and by extension that made Peter feel... special. And really, really good.]

I promise we'll find ways to make sure your resting isn't boring.

[wolf_blood]

There's a short joke in there somewhere.

[There would be better times, but there would definitely also be worse times. She couldn't go anywhere, either way.]

I suppose that would fall under your responsibilities, wouldn't it?

[whateveraspidercan]

We're not short we're just... sized properly for each other.

[Still, he smiled and ran his fingers through her hair before kissing her forehead. He wanted to touch her more, to kiss her silly in reassurance, but she was both on pain meds and supposed to be taking it easy.]

Yeah. Don't worry, I'm going to take good care of you.

[wolf_blood]

You know one of the best ways I heard someone describe being short? Having an unfair advantage at games of limbo.

[Yeah, that wasn't going to suffice for her. She had actually just realized he had not properly kissed her once yet, and she's pretty immediately grumpy about it.] Stop being weird and kiss me. [She didn't actually wait - it still counted as taking it easy, in her opinion, if she didn't move but instead dragged him to her by his shirt.]

I'm not worried.

[whateveraspidercan]

Not being weir-

[He was cut off as she grabbed him and kissed him, which really was taking it easy for them. His hands cupped her face as he kissed her back, tongue teasing hers as he hummed appreciatively. Kissing her was REALLY amazing.]

[wolf_blood]

[He was so being weird, but she'd forgive it since he did actually kiss her back. It was soothing in a few different ways, made her feel normal, she was pretty sure it was reassuring for him too, and because there was some small part of her that had been concerned he might not kiss her back.]

[whateveraspidercan]

[There was never a chance that he wouldn't kiss her back. Instead he very carefully moved his hands under her and easily lifted her up off the bed and onto his lap, her legs perpendicular to his. This way he could still kiss her but also he could keep her close.]

[wolf_blood]

[That was a brilliant idea, and she relaxed - it was tricky, for her, to get out of fight mode, it was one of her default settings and she didn't even notice sometimes that she was in it. Like now, she hadn't known she was still there, until more tension bleed out of her in his lap. He often had that effect.] Tell me about your day?

[whateveraspidercan]

So we had a fitness assessment in PE today.

[He idly rubbed her back while he spoke, fingers moving up to massage her neck and shoulders a bit. No doubt she'd been feeling pretty tense earlier and could stand to have a neck rub.]

So I did just well enough to maintain my A- in class.

[wolf_blood]

Mm, that's nice. [Tense wasn't the half of it, but he was good at - well, her. He was good at her, and both the little massage and the talking were settling her, making her feel back on even ground.] I don't know how you manage to take it down that many notches.

[whateveraspidercan]

[Peter know that for as bad ass as Arya was she was still human. Getting stalked and stabbed bothered her because most people were bothered by stuff like that. Although he wasn't sure how much of her tension was having to deal with the aftermath of being stabbed and the complications from that.]

I mostly just look around and make sure I'm doing worse than most everyone else.

[wolf_blood]

[Oh, plenty of it was the aftermath. Being stuck here right now, and being required to rest, 'take it easy,' almost a nightmare for her. Having to be worried over - even if she was only telling two people - and in particular having to worry him... no, none of that is her definition of a good time.] I'd give you much more than an A-.

[whateveraspidercan]

Good think you're not my gym teacher then.

[Peter kissed the top of her head again, then tilted his head so that he kissed her cheek, the tilted her chin to face him so that he could kiss her mouth again. It was slow and lingering, the type that wasn't leading to anything other than another kiss. It was the kind of kiss you gave to someone to reassure them that everything was going to be okay.]
