[It would be a sign of Steve's good faith to him to agree to finally show him to his namesake. For him, it was one of the most important details since taking on that name, a need that was constant within him. He would honour the name with a tradition apparently only followed by his own kind.

He reached up and slipped his arms around Steve's neck, pulling the other boy closer to him and nuzzling their noses together.]

I will be yours like you are mine. I will provide for you, and you will provide for me. I will defend you, and you will defend me. We are mutual in dedication. [That was the idea anyway; he had never done anything like this before, but Steve inspired him to take the risk. He did care very deeply for this boy.]
