the first two steps of that are ostensibly complete, but the third certainly hasn’t come to past. it might not come to pass at all, with the way esi is taking things so fully in stride that it wraps back around to him fearing for his life. somewhere, midway through the maze that he accidentally took them down after a wrong turn, he stops abruptly to turn back to esi. well, halfway back to esi; the rest of his attention comes as a sidelong glance with backwards ears. )
First of all— ( no, he hasn’t had much luck with women, but what does that have to do with anything? yet no articulate protest comes to mind, and he’s left staring in silence without any followup. no, wait, there’s one:
a sigh. )
You know, this isn’t… ( fun ) If you’d rather take it off and go. You can.
