( it takes him a second to really understand what he's seeing but when he does? he fully stops outside the club and just stands there. looking at a steve rogers no longer with a submissive line running down his throat. )
that's... i mean. you got what you wanted. i'm happy for you? even if you're still stuck here but. it should make things a little easier for you at least.
no. i mean i don't really need time to think it over? i've honestly been dreading trying to find someone to sign with. but i'm ok with you. more than ok. just we probably need to discuss things? legal things i mean. for me. for you.
[ that just sounds like even more reason to discuss things. ]
I really think most of it is what you're comfortable with. But you're right. We should set boundaries, and I want to give you as much freedom as I can. [ you know, "legally". ]
right. boundaries. i just want to be able to buy things for myself. clothes and food. to be able to work and travel between the up and down without any hassle. if you're comfortable with me living with you, i wouldn't mind. the up apartments are pretty nice.
I don't see that being a problem. Those are the most usual things in a contract, and there's plenty of room here. I know you can take care of yourself, but there's safety in the Up. More privacy too.
[ if that's something he wants, but as far as the rest — ]
I don't think so. This doesn't have to be about anything other than a partnership. I know some add in things about quota. I'm not sure that's necessary though. Do you?

But I'm not worried about things being easier for me. I'd like to help you.

You don't need my permission to do anything.
[ granted, that's not true in duplicity, but for steve, he sincerely means that. ]

But yeah. It'd make figuring other things out easier too.
no subject
yeah. i mean yeah. it would and i'd like that. to sign with you i mean. pretty sure i told you that before anyways.
no subject
In case you need more time to think it over.

is there anything you want from me? or anything you feel we should discuss?

you mean with me not meeting it and getting you in trouble?
no subject
As in us sleeping together.

It is. I'll also make sure it doesn't say anything about it being a requirement to be with me for that.
