HARPER
Her teasing is blunted by the softness of her eyes, the way she pauses in their little struggle to ascertain his sincerity. If she looks, she will find only honesty in his expression, the warm smile and crinkled corners of his eyes. "Yes. Really." Even the sharp tips of her fingers won't change his mind, and she could surely eviscerate him with one well-aimed blow. In another world, one where perhaps Harper was not so keen on preserving all forms of life, he would still see fit to spare her if only because she is her. Kind, funny, good in ways she continues to display every time they meet.
Harper lets her back him against the desk, and in turn she allows herself to be pulled up against his torso. She may be stronger, but at least he is taller. And though the warmth of her body on his is distracting, he can't look away from her eyes, more enamored with her spirit than her form. "I would enjoy giving you that pleasure at least," he teases back, because while the pain of her vague promises would undoubtedly end him, her pleasure in taking him apart would at least grant him that small bit of joy. He's a pleaser, what can he say?
