I'shan eyed the offering with pleasure, his thin body rocking forward onto tiptoes to get a better view. "Nice. Thank you," he said, eyes following as R'nd moved into the kitchen to fetch the drinks. He was used to R'nd helping himself during visits. I'shan had procured some nice wine for the evening, again taking a bit extra with the hope that N'gelt would show, though the extra came in the form of ale.
I'shan slithered after him. He accepted the glass without complaint and sighed gently as he lifted it to his lips. "Well," he breathed, pausing as he took his first long sip of wine, "I suppose it would be ethical of me to go ahead and talk," he said, watching his friend though calculated, mischievous eyes. "But I don't know. That food smells awfully good," he said, meandering over to the roast wherry and sniffing it delicately. He chuckled, the hairs on his arms standing up as he considered just how tantalized R'nd seemed to be. Or was his hair standing on end because he was thinking of N'gelt?
"Well," I'shan said again as he started to fix a plate. Clearly he was in no hurry. "...You know how I once confided in you that I have a taste for... dangerous men?"
He winked.
