MCA #0, Thursday Evening

[grenadesandohana]

In Steve's opinion, it was never too cold to grill, and so he was out on the lanai with his giant puffy coat and a pair of flip flops, flipping steak. (He was also grilling vegetables, but it was the steak he was actually excited about.)

"Danno!" he called back into the house, keeping his voice loud enough to be heard through the glass door, "two minutes!"

Comments

"You burn them and have convinced yourself you like it," Steve corrected.

[hatesparadise]

"That is how my mother makes eggs, Steven." Which did not actually make it better.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve made a little face. "Okay."

They were not good eggs, Daniel.

[hatesparadise]

"I'm not makin' your eggs that way."

Which implied he knew a better way and just didn't do it.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve grinned. "Thanks. Now eat your non-burned steak."

[hatesparadise]

Danny rolled his eyes and settled in with the steak and various grilled green things. Made with love.

[grenadesandohana]

It had been, not that Steve would ever admit to it. "You're welcome," he said around a mouthful of his own dinner.

[hatesparadise]

"You're just happy to grill even in the winter," Danny replied, pressing a foot to Steve's under the table.

[grenadesandohana]

"Steak's just better from the grill," Steve said.

[hatesparadise]

"And made by you," he drawled.

[grenadesandohana]

"Well, you call me a control freak, so...yes," Stee agreed.

[hatesparadise]

"I do because you are," Danny replied, grinning over at him. "Which I guess is something I'm into."

[grenadesandohana]

Steve grinned back. "Love you, too."

[hatesparadise]

Danny snorted. "Thank you, babe."

[grenadesandohana]

"I like being something you're into," Steve said with a little smirk.

[hatesparadise]

Danny snorted and gave him a little kick. "Well, congrats on that."

[grenadesandohana]

"And maybe later, you can be a different kind of into me--"

Steven. No.

[hatesparadise]

That caused him to burst out into a laugh. "Oh, you're so smooth."

[grenadesandohana]

"I have a nickname about it and everything," Steve said proudly.

[hatesparadise]

"So very into you," he said dryly. "So charmed."

[grenadesandohana]

Steve laughed. "I can tell by that slightly repulsed look on your face."

[hatesparadise]

"No, no, this is my turned on face. As you well know." Right, Steven?

[grenadesandohana]

Steve grinned. "Well, you have a lot of different faces," he teased.

[hatesparadise]

"And knowing them is all part of bein' my partner." Danny paused. "Husband? We gonna say that or partner still?"

[grenadesandohana]

"I think it depends on where we are," Steve said. "I'm not introducing you to perps as my husband."
