[Evangeline submits to the checkup, mostly just to reassure Azul - it's no big deal, it's just a couple of bruises, but she doesn't want him to worry.]
[Azul looks a little stunned briefly at that remark, before he looks down at her hand in his.]
You never fail to surprise me, you know that? I mean, perhaps I shouldn't be so surprised, because I would likely have done the same if you had been the one shoved into that wretched cage by comparison. But still... you didn't hesitate at all to do whatever it took to get me out of there... I can't help but feel a little touched by that.
[Sure, Floyd and Jade obviously also would have done the same, but... this is different somehow. When they do it, Azul tends to get a little exasperated sometimes if it feels like they're getting carried away or that they treat it as simply a convenient excuse to intimidate or fight someone rather than because they wanted to save Azul. Evangeline though... there was no hint of that kind of tone to her actions.]
[Evangeline doesn't take enjoyment in violence for its own sake. A friendly spar, sure, that can be fun. But she has no desire to truly hurt people who haven't done something to earn it.
[Azul lifts her hand now to his lips so that he can place a kiss on the back of it, almost gentlemanly before he proceeds to turn her hand over and place more kisses to the palm of her hand, with a little more intent than just a brush of lips before he pulls back to speak.]
Still, you deserve my thanks... tell me, what would you like me to do to show my gratitude, hm?
That can certainly be arranged, easily I might add.
[He leans closer now, but he doesn't kiss her on the lips just yet. Instead, he places kisses that brush Evangeline's cheeks like butterfly wings before he brings his mouth close to her ear to place a kiss on the lobe there before speaking right into it with a satisfied hum.]
You were so brave despite the danger we were in... absolutely stunning in how you managed to keep calm when necessary, and when to show no mercy to our enemies... I am truly lucky to have someone as beautiful and strong as you by my side.
[His other hand gently places itself on her thigh, tracing some kind of pattern there before slowly inching higher to place on her hip here before he drops his mouth to her neck, placing more thorough kisses until he proceeds to start sucking a hickey into the exposed skin there.]
Oh - oh. [Compliments about her looks are one thing, but talking about how brave and cool and strong she is makes her face flush red. Added to the kisses and the hickeys...]
It was my pleasure - anything for you.
[She cups his cheek gently, a soft moan leaving her lips as he marks her skin.]

I'm fine? I've had way worse.
[She gives his hand a gentle squeeze.]
I could do it again right now if I had to.

That guy earned it in spades.]
I'd do anything I had to to keep you safe.

[Her smile turns a bit sheepish. This is kind of embarrassing to ask for, actually.]
Well, you could tell me how cool and attractive I was? And any other compliments you'd like to give.
