Where: The streets of NY
When: Backdated to 25th Nov, post b'day party
What: Morgan and Markus explore the city in a whole new way
Status: On-going
Warnings: Mush and heights

The party at the ice rink had been a lot of fun, despite his fear of making a total idiot of himself. Markus had learned that he spent less time on his ass when he had a barrier to hold on to. Even with Morgan-styled distractions. He didn't spend the entire time on his feet, but that was to be expected, given his lack of experience. It was possible he might have tripped once or twice simply to see Morgan's laugh, which was beautiful to see.

Once the party wrapped up and farewells had been exchanged, he took Morgan's hand and led her to where he'd left Moriarty. "Where did you stash your suit?" Markus asked as he gave her a quick hug, noticing the ring she'd worn on her finger and smiling. It looked good on her and knowing she'd worn it made him smile and feel... proud? It was a new emotion and one that he suspected mean he liked Morgan showing their bond to the world. "Have you had a good day so far?" he asked as he helped her up behind him and started the engine. "I hope you're ready for the after-party. This city is amazing for free-running," he told her with a happy glint in his eye, "and I can't wait to share it with you."

"If that's you're goal, you are doing a fantastic job," Markus said with all sincerity as he playfully wrinkled his nose as he'd seen Morgan done so very often. "I hope I challenge you a little in return," he answered with a quirk of his eyebrow, "otherwise I'm going to require an update."

He wasn't surprised that Morgan agreed with him. They each had so many insecurities, but somehow when they were together none of it mattered.

"Thank you for wanting to share it with me," Markus answered, knowing that not everyone would have been so lucky as to have a partner so daring. The thought made him ecstatically happy, that somehow he'd found this woman with whom he could share both his fears and passions with. When she slipped behind him and curled her body to his, he smiled even brighter, "and now I'm wondering how I hold on. It's a good thing I trust you not to drop me," he teased.

The kiss was both affection and assurance, he felt it and braced himself for a moment before the momentum sped them into the sky. "Holy shit," he managed, the air stealing the words and leaving them far behind as the two of them soared higher. Markus looked down and for a moment felt emotion catch in his throat as he starred down at their world. They home. "It's so beautiful up here," he told Morgan in barely a whisper. "This is incredible, Morgan. I love it!"

She reached to tap his nose when it wrinkled. "No update required, Markus. I assure you that you are equally challenging."

She couldn't think of a single thing she wouldn't want to share with Markus. She truly believed that what they had was perfect. Morgan knew it wouldn't always be easy, she was sure there would be more trying times in their future, but she would take it all. The good. The bad. All of it. "In the highly unlikely event that I did drop you, I would catch you," she teased right back.

Morgan laughed joyously at his reaction as she flew them a little lower, zooming in and out and around the buildings of the city. She was so happy that he loved it, and found it as beautiful of an experience as she did. She made an entire loop around Goodland, passing Stark Industries and Ostrich's Villa before landing gently where Moriarty was parked.

Reluctantly untangling her arms away from his waist, her suit unwrapped from her body- retracting into her gloves. "Soooo," she asked with a quirk of her lips.

"You know..." Markus said with a hint of laughter, "...dropping and catching me could add an incredibly fun element to the free-running," he said looking back at Morgan. She'd fly and he'd aim and attempt to catch her and if he missed, well no problem, because his incredible and talented girlfriend would catch him before any harm came to him.

He loved the feeling of being so free, seeing the city and doing so with Morgan made it all the better. It filled him with a sense of wonder that he couldn't quite verbalise that was more to do with the talent it took to enable this than the flight itself. Markus couldn't help but point to landmarks as they flew passed, laughing as they swooped in and out of the buildings and eventually arrived back home.

"Soo..." he said as he stepped towards her, tracing the path of the suit as it retracted until his fingers were touching Morgan's. "You're even more amazing than I ever imagined," Markus told her with a bewildered smile. "Apart from the experience, my mind is fizzing with how many calculations you'd need to make in such a short amount of time and..." he stepped towards her, "...and I should be kissing you right now and not talking." It might have taken a moment to get there, but when he got the message he got it!
