[occultatum]

You know that there are antidotes to that, if it starts to bother you. If the feelings get too intense. Spells to turn the feelings away.

[He says it, tipping his chin up a little.]

On your end, of course. He could stay as obsessed as you want him.

[brushoff]

It's not going to bother me. I'm sure that when the next round of arrivals happen, I'm sure to find someone else who captures my attention the way that this man does.

[ He hopes. He really, really hopes ]

[occultatum]

Well. The offer does stand. I'd hate to see you all tied up when you clearly don't want to be.

[Siiiiiiiiiiiip.]

[brushoff]

You say that, but in certain circumstances and with certain people, I'd love to be tied up.

[ Maybe if he distracts Nick a little bit then they'll stop talking about stupid topics like 'Dorian's feelings.' ]

I'm sure you've got a spell in your arsenal that can produce some rope.

[occultatum]

Nothing that produces rope, but certainly the effect.

You don't have to change the subject.

[brushoff]

Yes, I do. We're not going to talk about feelings, Nick. I loved once, that went poorly, it's never going to happen again. What else is there to talk about?

[ sulk sulk sulk! pout pout pout! ]

[occultatum]

Fine.

[He tops Dorian off.]

So who have you thoroughly corrupted, then? There has to be someone.

[brushoff]

Constance would have to be the closest—Sims is second place, though.

[ Dorian takes a sip from his glass before asking, ]

What about you? Do you have any projects in mind?

[occultatum]

Billy Hargrove. Have you seen him?

Eyelashes for days.

[Pretty thing. Nick just.

Wants to wreck him.]

He thinks he's straight.

[brushoff]

[ Dorian can't help but laugh at that, giving Nick a grin afterwards. ]

I haven't met him yet, but I'll keep an eye out. If you want any help training him, you know who to call.

[occultatum]

I'll put you on my list of assistants.

[Everyone should want to wreck Billy. He's practically oozing testosterone that it makes him an easy target.]

[brushoff]

Your list of assistants? That makes it sound like you're a magician and I'm your stage girl, [ Dorian can't help but tease. ]

Though I'd make a very attractive person to be sawed in half.

[occultatum]

Well.

I won't argue that. I'm pretty good at sawing people in half.

[He has some serious stage magician chops.]

[brushoff]

Now that is something I want to see. We'll need to find an opportunity for you to show off that hidden talent!
