the tension, he thinks, could've been cut with a knife, but even here, even now, as his heart stabs itself in his chest, unbeating and dead, he finds a way to strangle it. the distance between them is so sickeningly minimal and though this is a position he oft is accustomed to, it scares and excites him, all the same, that if he leaned forward not even an inch ... it would be enough. and yet here he is, finger caught between both of their lips, stopping him in his tracks before @londonfallen been able to kiss him proper. for all his heart does not beat, his chest aches. it's so painful, quite honestly, a part of him wishes he could die right here.

"i don't ... kiss on the lips," his voice is quiet, murmured 'gainst the muffled sounds of the party that still rages on not even two doors down, hardly muffled at all with such dismal distance 'tween them and a veritable crowd. for as stern as his policy has always been, he's nearly humiliated to his core, then, that he sounds so lacking in confidence now. his stomach hurts, in knots, and he wonders if he's ever felt this embarrassed when he was alive. he can't remember.

suppose it doesn't matter, whether he humiliates himself in front of a client, or a god. he is, at the end of it all, nothing, and this would not be remembered.

"remember?"
