"You need not feel that way on my account," Loki's body temperature is a little lower than a human's would be, where he leans against him, a consequence of Jotun blood. "You've done nothing to me, and what I said before, stands. No judgment, not here."
"I thought perhaps it would be best to explain, since my mind started to wander. I am much improved, but I still bear scars."
"And I still stand unconquered." He glances up and takes in the expression on his face, then moves into a full embrace, perching on the arm of the chair he's in. "It's all right, truly."
"Here we are, unconquered," Megatron muses, holding him.
That sounds like the first line of a poem, and he considers running with it. But this is not a poem he wants to write on the fly; this is one he wants to put some thought into writing. It's not like he'd be writing it alone. The words are initially Loki's words; he just wants to see where they'll wander.
It would be so easy to kiss him; a stray thought, but one he's sorely tempted to feed and take in and shield from the cold. But even if that happens, this isn't the way he wants it to happen.
For here, for now, this is enough: that someone can truly know all the things he has done, and could do, and is capable of, and can still want to be where Loki is now.
