“What happened to your assessment of him as my rent boy? Hypocritical of you to…indulge in him after casting it as an aspersion.” Daniel inhales, instantly prepared to use words, words, words to help [Armand] save face and also save his own ass because that’s his fucking forté. “My mistake. Your semi-estranged companion and extremely astute business partner used me as a glorified sex toy last night, and it turns out I hardcore needed to be objectified. I doubt this will come as a shock, but that worked wonders for my aging, ailing ego. I, uh…” He shoots a deferential sidelong glance at [Armand], who’s giving him a guarded look. “Wouldn’t mind if it happened again, but that’s at his discretion.” Louis gives [Armand] a look that sits somewhere at the crossroads of amusement, bafflement, and contempt. Razor-edged panic flares in Daniel’s stomach; he has no idea why such a specific cocktail of emotion should get to him when it’s aimed straight past him at someone else. “Let me have this, Louis,” [Armand] says with quiet urgency, his grasp on Daniel’s shoulder tightening. “He’ll be gone soon enough as it is.”
