Oh, good. I do like to think I am charming, yes. But for everyone...
[ Midnight shakes his head, but when he picks up his drink for another sip, it's not with any dismay or discomfort with the idea that he may not be for everyone. He knows what he's capable of, and it's not that. ]
What I mean to say is that hosts provide a service that, were the playing field level, anyone could do for anyone else. For example, a couple who only have eyes for one another, who have grown old with each other, agreeable with each other's incongruities... I have great admiration for those sorts of people, certainly, but I am not for them, nor are they for me. They are each other's dream, their time away from their lives in that they are each other's lives.
[ Midnight raises a brow, smiles at his new friend. ]
That said, I'm not sure if everyone needs a dream, or time away from their lives. I've learned not to assume that much. What I do generally assume is that most people desire things outside of their grasp, and spend most of their lives trying to find places in their lives for their needs and wants to fit. Hosts don't have to be a part of that picture, so when someone decides that my company is worth that space, that time, it's a great privilege.
