“Oh? Thanks, I actually designed it myself, and-” Wait, that was most assuredly a pickup line, and he was about to ruin it. There was no harm in flirting with faceless strangers, right? “But actually, I find yours to be much more captivating. I bet the face underneath is even better.“ Lame. Lame. Lame. You blew it, Teddy. Too little, too late.
A grin tugged at Billy’s lips as the stranger began to explain, genuine interest sparking in his eyes. He’d been trying to flirt, but at least if the stranger was going to brush him off, he was doing it with style.
And then he changed course, complimenting Billy’s mask instead and turning his words around on him. Suddenly, Billy was glad of the mask not only for hiding his identity, but covering most of the soft flush as well.
“Here I thought you were going to explain your mask craft... Darn, I was going to steal your style next ball.”
Laughing softly, Billy flashed another grin, shaking his head, “Yours is definitely better, I’ll bet. I can tell from the eyes.”
