Alright, alright... Those sound either too intimate or too public, and now he's suddenly very conscious of carrying her around all willy-nilly. He crouches so that it's a seamless transition for Meryl to go from his arms to the ground and... maybe avoids her gaze for the time being!]
[He may try to set Meryl down, but the second he starts, she promptly wraps her arms around his shoulders. She will cling like a koala if she needs to.]
We can - sit on my bed. It's fine.
[It's intimate, especially considering the fact that they've only just become a couple but no one said she had to do anything with it, right?]
[Oh -- oh, she likes it? Well, ok! Liv straightens right back up, holding her to his chest and, yep, still blushing with a goofy smile.]
Y'sure? [He doesn't need much convincing, having just been in this situation and nothing came from it. If Meryl is worried about that, well...] I don't expect nothin', but I know it's still a lot. If yer comfortable, just tell me where to go.
[At least she can say that without hesitation. She lets one arm slip from his shoulder, pointing Livio in the exact direction. It's down the long hall, and then off to the right. Like everything else, it's sparsely decorated, but at least the blankets are lush and soft, even when laying over the top of them.]
Livio sets Meryl on the bed -- if she'll LET HIM -- before he even attempts to sit. Which... he still may not, yet. It feels like something he needs another invitation for.]
[Meryl will allow herself to finally be deposited. She leans back onto one hand, looking smug with the smirk she wears. With her free hand, she pats the bed beside her.]
[She is so tiny but so powerful... He can't help but bend to her whims, sitting down beside her, head hung low so he can look up at her with those puppy eyes... even if he doesn't exactly mean to.]
