[ Wow. Rafayel is calling him a whore, but he just smiles. ]

I like how jealousy looks on you.

[ Raises his free hand to Rafayel's face...

... and gently tugs his cheek. Brat. ]

[ his brows furrow together before he tries to brush sylus' hand off.

though, his attempt is pretty weak. ]

You're obviously seeing things. Must be the night vision failing you.

[ It will not work, though he does let go, it's only so that his fingers can trail down the length of his jaw to grip at his chin. ]

Fortunately for you, I have good eyes.

[ he remains fixed in place. as if moving was also losing.

instead, he keeps his gaze fixed on sylus' ~mysterious~ eye(s). ]

Then you're reading me all wrong.

[ ~glows~ ]

Are you sure you know how to read yourself?

Think I know one or two more things than you do.

[ he brings a hand up and pretends to fix sylus' collar. ]

[ Is he going to tickle him. ]

Such as?

Don't know if I wanna tell you. Like you said, I still have rounds to make.

[ teehee. ]

Even though the effect has worn off?

[ ... Sees an opportunity to antagonize him. ]

Or was there no effect at all, and you're just making rounds under false pretences? How devious.

Who said it wore off?

[ scrambles to find an excuse for himself. ]

I might still be feeling weird. Just not for you.

[ Hums. ]

No more honesty between us? Is that reserved only for talks about our pasts and secrets?

Isn't honesty more hurtful sometimes? Maybe I'm just trying to spare your feelings.

I find it more hurtful that you think I'm so weak.

Yeah, you do strike me as kinda a weaky. Can't be helped.

Guess I'm your Mister Bodyguard. [ for sparing sylus' feelings for that of which he is also trying to hurt, so... ]

A bodyguard who runs away. How unconventional.

[ Looking unimpressed. ]

Maybe you're just a bad boss.

I would never hire such a poorly disciplined employee.

[ Flicks his forehead and steps back so they are a normal distance apart. ]

[ but, ouch.

he's holding his head now, annoyed. ]

Poorly disciplined? Maybe you're holding your employees on too tight a leash.

Asking my bodyguard not to run away at the first sight of danger is too tight a leash?

Is it running from danger? Or is it running from a really needy employer?

[ says rafayel. ]

And what about me is needy exactly?

Asking questions like that.

[ smiling annoyingly. ]

[ Narrows his eyes... Then shrugs. ]

Alright. Run then.

What, and you're not going to chase me a second time?

[ already going to start turning away now. ]

Don't make it sound like you want me to.

[ Tucks his hands in his pockets, stays still. ]
