Lezard paled slightly, knowing Steff's allusion all too well.
Primavera, who'd been conversing with Steff on the anonymous secrets post, knew the allusion even better, and smirked.
"Neither of us," said Lezard. This was more pressing a concern than refuting her claims about Snape -- which she'd never stop claiming anyway. "Especially not you, Steffain."
Hmph.
"This love-weapon business we are here only to observe." In other words, Lezard and Steff were the peanut gallery. They might also indulge in a bit of non-metaphorical making out under the very metaphorical bleachers. "Besides which I understand that 'Trust' is a prerequisite of this Pilot/Weapon bond. I trust you not quite as far as I could throw you, considering the lightness of your frame and the puissance of my magic mean that I could throw you a fair distance indeed."
Fuck it. He grabbed her hand anyway. He wanted to be close to her, even though he hated her.
