[He moans blissfully into Norton's shoulder at that, biting lightly at his skin.] I really shouldn't be surprised at your skill with a blade. There aren't many people I trust to cut into me without destroying what's already there.
[The bite sends a tingle down his spine and Norton smiles dreamily.]
I won't hold your vanity against you. I think you've earned it. [Not because of the scars, but because of the charisma with which he carries the scars.]
[Norton cuddles close and shuts his eyes. He idly muses that there's a chance that John could murder him in his sleep in retaliation for Norton's retaliation, but he thinks that if John wanted to do that he'd at least wake Norton up first so he can appreciate it, and then Norton could deal with whatever happens then. So he lets himself relax and drift off without concern.]

Goodnight, Norton.
