Re: quicklog: eddie/steph in Wonder City
[The tenderness of the kiss made him uncomfortable and he could barely return it. To him it was like a candy toothache. An achievement earned by using cheatmode. He pulled back and gave a smile that was all carnie rogue. All step up and test your might with the mask of charm she had seen him use on everyone except her. Right now? Eddie needed it to get fucking through the rest of Ra's reign. He needed to pretend she had his back or he really would go fucking crazy.]
I know you do, baby. [Eddie kept the smirk and touched the side of her face. Confidence was a shell he wore like a question mark. It was something to behold, something that glimmered old Gotham in a way no one else in town did.] Don't look so sad. We have a new dog. I can't wait to tell Matilda. [His voice was back up to neon green. When he leaned down to kiss her, she suddenly knew how those girls before her felt when Eddie Nigma wormed his way into their hearts. Deep down, there wasn't anything there, but he knew how to make something feel good.]
