"Forever? No. Forever is a long time, even for the eternal." Jesper assumes that's what they are. No one has aged or shown any signs of slowing downn, outside those who intentionally seem stunted like Steve. One day he thinks his step-father will simply turn to stone and never move again, and that's unfortunately just how things go for some people.

Jesper gets more powerful by the day and he assumes his lovers will come back to him despite decades going by. He's a constant, he knows that much. If he can be that for Koby, he's content. He smiles as Koby's head leans against his shoulder, the height difference pretty normal for him and others. There are few naturally tall like him. There are some gods who made themselves taller, but Jesper as in most ways didn't bother to change himself.

"I missed your taste. Your wicked little smiles, and your sweet ones." Jesper tilts his head up and leans down to kiss him. Only a taste though, as he said, licking his tongue into his mouth for a good one. "Your perfect body." His hands move over his curves.

He smiles and takes Koby's drink, setting it aside, to reach down and grab Koby by the thighs, lifting him like the tiny weight that he is compared to Jesper's rippling arms now. The rare thing different from his skinniness in the past, having filled out long ago. He tosses Koby on the bed and tugs his own shirt up and off, following Koby onto the mattress. "And what did you miss about me, precious?"
