“He couldn’t help the way his heart seemed to fall out of his chest. Steve’s reaction came from a place of awe at his display of power. He knew what he looked like, the wisps of flames dancing along his flesh like nymphs in a forest. His shoulder length hair floating in an unnatural wind that no one but him could feel. He was a vision of beauty and light objectively speaking, his own opinions on his appearance not really something he liked to think about. He wished though that his visage would have evoked a more provocative response from Steve, he would have even taken an emotional one too. Turning abruptly, he missed Natasha elbowing Steve in the stomach. All he heard was a grunt and minor squabbling in the background as he led the captain and the widow deeper into the castle.”
