[So smooth. And okay, Ryan is taking his hand back, and looks down at the floor with a half-smile.]

Jane told me why you got me Morpheus, you know.

[akmazian]

[ Of course she did. What happened to the sacred bond of secrecy between smuggler and client? ]

Because she appealed to the goodness of my heart?

[ Or more accurately, to the teenager with a crush part of his heart. ]

[drforehead]

Yeah, that. And uh, something about putting in a good word for you or something.

[Yes the ground is so very interesting right now.]

I kinda had to ask after she spent, like, a week trying to drop into conversation what a dashing specimen of man you are. She's, uh, not exactly the most subtle.

[akmazian]

I guess I should'a expected something like that after she tried to seduce me into it. The saucier tried, too.

[ He's paying very close attention to the walls, with the occasional glance at Ryan. ]

I was gonna do it anyway, since she said you were feeling so down. But I figured if she was willing to say something nice about me it couldn't hurt anything.

Levi tried to seduce you? That... I'm really glad I wasn't here to see that.

[He's already had to see Levi's weird junk more than he's ever wanted to. He risks glancing at Akmazian again, lets himself study the side of his face a little since the other man isn't looking back.]

Uh, thanks. For that. It really helped. It's nice coming home and, uh, having someone happy to see me.

[akmazian]

I wish I didn't have to be there to see it. Both of them need a lesson in negotiation strategy.

[ Especially since seduction techniques only worked when you had something the other party wanted. There wasn't anything under Jane or Levi's jumpsuits he was all that interested in. ]

It wasn't that big a deal. I knew a guy who knew a lady who had a litter she was looking to put into good homes. She said Morpheus was the best of the bunch.

[drforehead]

[Jesus, why the hell is he so nervous all of a sudden. It was only a few months ago he hated the guy, and now...

Come on get it together, Dalias, jeez. He leans back with a grown, drags both hands down his face, and fixes Akmazian with the best stare he can manage.]

So what exactly is this... thing? That's going on now? Between, you know, us? I mean? Cause I'm kind of goddamn lost about what you want from me, okay?

[akmazian]

[ And now they're back in awkward territory. He sighs and rubs the back of his neck, trying to figure out the right thing to say that won't send Ryan running off in a panic. ]

Frankly, I don't know what it is, 'cause I don't know what you want. I think you're a good man, and good looking.

[ And it's already in the open that he's attracted to Ryan. ]

Right now I'd say we're friends. It doesn't gotta go any further than that if you aren't comfortable.
