[ Amos couldn't help the way his whole body sagged forward a little bit, like relief, or something close, hitting him straight in the chest. They both knew he wouldn't say the words back, even if he did believe in them, but hearing Alex say them still felt... good, somehow. Like they could get back to normal, at some point. Their own new normal.
Still, instead, he rolls his eyes and pushes at Alex's side. ]
[ It was an acknowledgement and not a denial, and that was enough to pull a relieved grin to his lips. Amos wouldn't hesitate to tell him if he thought he was lying or was wrong, after all. So the tease was an acceptance, and that was all Alex really wanted anyway. So he grins, and takes it as a dismissal on good terms, sliding his good hand into his pocket as he takes a step back. ]
If that's how they're flirtin' with you, Amos, you're already in too deep.
[ He took a step back and hit the door controls. ]
But maybe I'll do that. [ He wouldn't. At least not intentionally. He gave Amos a two fingered salute, then stepped back through the door and let it slide closed as he walked away. ]
