( this stranger has at least got one thing right--he's not particularly interested in companionship.
three questions is generous, which makes him wonder how bountiful this person's knowledge is, about this place. could it be that he doesn't know much of anything? could it be that no one knows much of anything? it might be a waste, then, to get some matter-of-fact nos and maybe sos murmured from those cat-like lips.
but the offer sets the bar, and though his gaze is drawn, at once, to that glimmer of metal, he jerks it away just the same. prosthetics, if that's what that hint implies, aren't unheard of in a place where devil hunters lose life and limb almost instantaneously.
he's not going to be able to offer his skin up for a trade like this. well, not the way he would normally-- )
Then are you after companionship, yourself?
( his eyes go from the pretty house of cards, to the pretty lashes peering at him--and then back again. )
A handjob. ( there's not even a blink, not a stammer, nothing but the calm confidence of a near virgin. ) Do you accept or not?
no subject
