“Not a man who’s used to getting a taste of his own medicine, are you?”
Still, the grin he returns is every bit as genuine as Pembroke’s own. Humans are so unbearably cute, sometimes, with their overly expressive faces and the way their body temperature wildly fluctuates when they get excited. They’re as easy to read as a book, and perpetually in denial.
“The teeth aren’t just for show, sweet thing.” He leans to hiss his words into the other’s ear, before giving that vulnerable point a gentle nip while his arm snakes back around his middle. “My people are meat-eaters, y’know. We’re downright ravenous.”
He’s happy to follow, happy to walk and enjoy the cool air contrasted against the beacon of warmth beside him. It’s a simple sensation that reminds him, in all its instant familiarity, of home.
“So, you’ve been stuck in this place for a while?”
He just keeps doing it! He could feel his heart fluttering! What a weird response. He’s had crushes before but usually they don’t pay him any mind. Maybe once or twice it’s happened in the past. Those who indulged Pembroke’s flirting had a strange crush develop after the fact.
“Oh you know how they say, treat people the way you wanted be treated,” Pembroke replied, almost through gritted teeth. Gods be damned he would love to take Gharet here. He by no means minded a quick one in literal public within reason, after all he’s done that in alleyways, a fucking dumpster and abandoned train yard. Calm yourself, you fool!
He had to steady his breathing but the grin never left his face. “We have something in common. Similar appetite. Sharp teeth and sharp claws are right up my alley, I always did enjoy the chase.” He chortled softly, now daring to be bold (why wasn’t he before? That damned crush daring him to be shy? Hah! As if...) and wrapped an arm around Gharet’s waist, hooking his thumb just under the band of his pants but going no deeper.
“Been here, done that, left and came back. I’ve roamed around here for awhile, had my self destructive binges. I know the places that at least taste good but for the decency to leave a neat place in tact, I’ve left Cotes Ward alone. And you? Sounds like you haven’t been here long yet, dear heart.”
