TMFU meme: “Do you really think I could ever replace you?” for spy AU Svex
“No, because I’m irreplaceable,” Dex teased in the signature tone of voice he often took with Sven, just before his expression softened for him to add, “But I’m glad you aren’t trying either.”
His lips were turned into half a smile learning that Sven wouldn’t be taking another partner now that Charlie was back from his witness protection mission and Dex was free to return to his side.Â
Just a week ago he had pulled Sven out of freezing waters and resuscitated the man with his own two hands, sparking a warmth in him for the older man that he hadn’t been able to shake. He wouldn’t be able to put into words that it was this feeling which made him relieved to hear Sven’s insistence on working solo following the end of their partnership.
Belatedly, Dex wondered if they would even continue seeing each other in the manner they’d become accustomed to in the past few months now that they didn’t have an excuse to conveniently be in hotels together anymore.
“For the record...” he chuckled glancing downward for a moment, and if Sven didn’t know better he’d think there was a faint tone of scarlet in the younger man’s cheeks. “I’m glad to have Charlie back...but he’s no replacement for you either.”
