[There is. A lengthy pause. The kind of pause that makes half of the party back home cower in readiness. The kind of pause permeated by a slow, blank, razor smile.]
[ The pause stretches on. Why does it feel like the calm before the storm? Or maybe the deep, thunderous footsteps of a Titan as it closes in on its prey.
Suddenly, Reiner is very, very grateful he's not in the same room as Hakkai.
BACKTRACKING IS GO! ]
You have great taste in romance novels. I read all the ones you gave me. A friend of mine really likes them, too. You're the expert on them.
[ Still backtracking, but now he's getting into it… ]
That's a good thing. People dismiss those books for some reason. They write them off without ever giving them a chance. It's their loss; there's so much depth to them! Especially the Tales of Temptation series. That's our favorite. We argue about who the main character should end up with, though. I think it should be Jeremy, but he insists Vic is better.

[Hakkai is not kind.]
An expert. In romance novels. I'm not certain that's a title one should be proud of.
[SMILING. Somehow, the power of Hakkai's Smile slides into the text.]
Though, it's pleasant to see someone enjoying literature, perhaps such observations are best left off a public network.

Right. I won't call you that again.
[ Even though it's TOTALLY TRUE ]

Do be careful, the next time you're sending out your ah. Thirst traps, I believe they're called.
