Ace blinked in surprise. Not for the first time today, he had no idea why he was forgiven without even asking for it. No, forgiven while specifically insisting he didn't deserve it. Smoker was weird. But Ace liked it.

He bit Smoker's shoulders and licked it. It tasted nice. "I love you," he mumbled and lightly kicked Smoker's chest with a knee mostly because it seemed like the right way to continue what was shaping up to be the most fucked up day of his life. "I'm giving you a blowjob later. When you're either not tired or less angry." He nodded his head, satisfied with hearing the words and squirmed about trying to reach Smoker's ear so he could bite it and suck that too.
