I doubt you've been self-conscious a day in your life.
[And it's not as though he's really one to talk, if the way that his hips surreptitiously rock forward is any indication — less by intention, more just the natural reflex of feeling satisfaction dancing just a hair's breadth out of reach and being unable to resist chasing after it. A shame indeed that the skirt of his mage gown is far less conducive to such an effort than his gunbreaker's trousers would be. On the upside, the more concealing drape isn't altogether a bad thing, and nor is the breathing room it leaves by comparison.]
And I'm a bit more concerned about our mutual luck — of not being discovered as yet, out in the open like this.
[But in his first outward tell of actually letting his guard down somewhat, he wets his lips with an absent flick of his tongue, and brings his free hand up from where it'd been searching for a dagger to drag his thumb along Reno's cheekbone instead.]
So I'd say the real question is, are you going to come quietly if I let you go, or are you going to make even more trouble for me than you have already?
