A Picture is Worth.... Meme
This ain't your mama's meme. Forget your RNG, forget your tired old prompts.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
It's easy. Comment with your character. Then go comment around.
But instead of pre-filled prompts with words or numbers, you find a gif or image (any gif/image from any canon or scenario you please) that sets the scene.
The picture is the prompt.

[ (And that's the point, isn't it? The choice to trust, the choice to give and take — the choice to love, by however much you're able.)

Her weight shifting back to her knees, the dip in the bed makes her hips slot neatly against his. Natasha bites one last kiss before her attention shifts down, a hand looped around the fabric of his tie and she lightly tugs at it, encouraging him to sit up with her. ]

I think, [ she says, her hands carefully undoing the neat windsor knot of his tie. For all that it's easy between them, there's a playfulness in her eyes. ] People traditionally have homecoming sex. I could be wrong.

[He groans a little when she sits back against his hips; he's not hard, they've only been trading lazy kisses, but his body remembers very well what happened last time she did that, and he is eager for a redux. The way she tugs on his tie makes him think he's going to get it, and if they were anyone else, he'd laughingly suggest using it in some kind of vanilla bondage. But they've both had more than their share of being tied down against their will, and he's not sure he'd be able to step away from the sense memory of losing control like that enough to enjoy it.

So instead he sits up and slides his hands down her back, curling them over the swell of her ass and squeezing gently as he gives her a ghost of a wink. She wants playful? He'll give her playful.]

I do believe it's considered customary, yes. Do you think we should attempt this hallmark of normalcy?

Well, [ she says with a tip of her shoulder, pulling the tie out from his collar and slinging it loosely around her own neck (some things should stay crease free, after all). Natasha's expression changes into one of almost coquettish consideration, her hands drifting down to pop open the first button of his shirt. ]

That depends. [ She tips her chin, her smile ruining the ruse. ] Do you think we're ready for it?

[He's seen her pull this kind of act many times before, and each time he scoffed a little internally at the idiot schmuck who fell for fluttered lashes and husky whispers, but now... Well, he may be reading into things, hoping to find details that may or may not be there, but it feels more— real. Like it doesn't quite come naturally, but she's trying.

And that's all he really wants from her.] I think... [He pauses, a grin curling his own lips in response to her smile; his hands squeeze her ass again.] Let's go for it.

[ He never asks and neither does Natasha, but she knows; can guess, sometimes. These things aren't easy, a neat balance of work versus will and she knows that however far she's willing to push, Phil will follow. An extension of their partnership from one to the other and it's that ingrained ease that makes her laugh quietly, half-squirming in his lap. (There's a part of her that's determined to overcome this, this barrier of something. Natasha has never dealt well with her own frustrations.) ]

Breakfast was a success, [ she agrees, popping open another button. She dips her head to mouth at that spot of open chest, smiling into his skin. ] We should aim two for two.

[Phil's willing to give Natasha anything she wants, anything at all. When he commits, he commits fully, whether it be to his work or when he falls in love, and if that's what Natasha decides she wants, he'll hand over his heart without blinking an eye. For now, though, they're still working around each other, figuring out the best way to slot their lives together, and he's more than content to simply take it day by day. Especially when his days include Natasha perched in his lap, slowly divesting him of his clothes.

He hums in agreement, combing his fingers through her hair as she ducks her head, carefully separating a tangle that snags on his finger and arching a little into the touch of her lips.] I don't think we'll have any problems there.

[ For all that Natasha is, it's rarer that she surprises herself: rarer still that others do. The gentleness in Phil's hands, the way his touch grips and skims is in stark counterpoint to the things she's seen him do; the brisk efficiency and economy of movement replaced with something slower, more bated. (Phil Coulson is a romantic; Natasha isn't sure why she's so surprised.)

Her fingers work the final button free and her arms shift to slide around his neck, like she's not in any real hurry just yet, the robe hanging half-off her elbows. It's nice to be able to drag out something as simple as an easy flirtation. ]

Anything else I should know about this tradition? You'll have to remind me. I'm new to America.

[He is very much a romantic, though his instincts tend to lie dormant most of the time, and she tends to bring it out in him without any effort on her part. He's not sure if he should be grateful to her or not. No, that's a lie. He is grateful. He's grateful for all kinds of things, grateful they're still alive, grateful for whatever impulse it was that pushed her to take him home that night two months ago, grateful that she was willing to try again. Phil misses the simple companionship that they rarely get in their line of work, and she's giving it to him, despite the fact that he knows it doesn't come easy to her. So yeah, he's grateful.

His hand splays at the base of her spine, the tip of his pinky finger slipping beneath the elastic of her panties as his other hand skims down her neck to stroke across her collarbones.]

Well, [he starts, a smile twinkling in his eye,] It tends to start with removing this. [And his fingers trail down her sternum to hook the front of her bra, tugging just a little.]

[ There's an easy huff of laughter as she presses a kiss to his temple, only to pull away again. The silk robe falls easily down her arms and pools in the dip of the mattress made by their bodies, slipping down her back and the line of his arm. The clasp of her bra undone, she removes it by letting the shoulder straps fall first, then the rest is dropped over the edge of the bed; Natasha smiles, her hands settling at his waist now, the length of his tie hanging unevenly over the rise of her breasts. ]

This does feel familiar. [ Her thumbs hook into his beltloops. ] Next?

Next... [Next has to wait for a minute, because Phil is currently occupied with stroking his hands up her sides so he can cup her breasts in his palms, his thumbs brushing over rosy nipples. So sue him, she's got fabulous breasts and he's only human. Of course he'd want to take advantage of the moment and appreciate them.

He does rally eventually, though, looking up into her face with a little laugh around the edges of his smile, and rolls his shoulders.] Next I think we need to get rid of my shirt. [That involves cufflinks, though, and letting go of her, something Phil is rather reluctant to do at the moment.]
