❛ please , mister compton . spare me the theatrics . ❜ question , rhetorical though it may be , primed in bow’s taut string , but arrow misses its mark –––––– steve’s just in a room over , hidden behind crackling fireplace . lonely ? please . surface : a proposition more of business , rather than pleasure . ❛ now , don’t get me wrong . you’re a handsome man . . . in a brooding , teenage - angst sort of way . ❜ crown lolls , upwards of comfort at armchair . tone dead & flat . stores of patience for bill’s antics , his attachments to human , societal constraints , are limited , & louisiana’s king is toeing the line this evening . ❛ but i have no interest in spending more time with you than what is necessary . this is merely a political proposal . ❜ @gravealive cont’d .
