[Jack is attempting just that, instead of dwelling on what happened the last time he loved someone like this. Someone asked him how he would honor Joseph's memory. The answer seems almost too simple: by not making the same mistakes.]
Nothing that you give me can prevent that anyway. It has to come from us.
[ He says wholeheartedly, his hand coming behind him to trace over the burn he'd left on Jack's skin -- branded onto him when they needed a way to recognise each other, sliding underneath the cloth to rest his palm over it.
He presses his forehead to his. ] By the way, you haven't told me. What should we do for our sexiversary? I bet it's your first time celebrating it.
[ He laughs and shakes his head, taking his hand and leading him to their bed. The fireplace in the hearth is crackling merrily, lending their chambers the light and additional warmth on top of what Johnny's already providing in terms of controlling the ambient temperature. ]
Tonight we can do whatever you want. We don't even need to have sex. [ He pauses. ] You know, if you don't want to.
[Jack looks at him like he just burst into flame - wait, he's seen him do that many times.
Like he grew an extra head, then. He places his hand on Johnny's chest before giving him a firm push back onto the bed. Jack slides onto his knees above him, straddling his hips.]
If I don't want to? You'll be lucky if you're able to walk out of this room tomorrow, fireball.

[Jack groans, his expression pained. But he doesn't move away from him.]
You mean the celebration includes something other than more sex? I'm surprised.
