Like a Rock

Steve's stubborn, as impossible to shift as a boulder. Danny runs a river of words over him, but it takes time to wear down stone.

Though, sometimes, he can move Steve not with a tirade, but a question, shifting Steve's focus instantly. It's how he got Steve to understand why Danny trusted a dead man's honesty.

And sometimes, with Steve a shuddering, straining shape above him, holding still, panting for breath, unable to let go, Danny can slide his hand down sweat-shined skin just so, murmur a word, and Steve moves with him, in him, for him, fluid as water.

Danny does seem to help Steve stay in touch with humanity at large, Socratic question-ing him into modes of thought. Steve tends to be the guy that keeps Danny from wanting to to kill people with the power of his mind, being that rock Danny can shout at. It's really cool that you stuffed that whole give-and-take between them into 100 words.

Yes, he does ::nods:: Thank you for the thoughtful feedback!
