[He wipes his fingers and mouth and takes a drink of wine before standing and walking a little away to turn on a phonograph with some classic old jazz, something a little toetapping, turning to offer Five his hand.]
Will you give me the pleasure of a dance, Five Hargreeves?
[ he shouldn't be surprised by the level of care and attention to detail Lahabrea put into this, and yet he is - and it blows him away a little. He will wipe his fingers and mouth as well before he takes his hand and move closer, smiling at him and waiting to see if he wants to take the lead because just the once, he might just let him ]
[Really this is the least he could do for Five? He does adore him truly.]
It would be rather rude. Good thing you are a gentleman.
[He laces his fingers with Five's and grins when he realizes Five's waiting for him. He was going to offer the lead, but, well, why waste the opportunity? He pulls Five in with his other arm and starts. It's definitely a bit of improvised dancing. Just something to match the upbeat tempo.]
[ Look at him, that's incredibly cute. He wasn't expecting Lahabrea to be quite so pleased with him letting him lead, but he likes that, and though the dance is improvised and nothing mindblowing, he's clearly enjoying himself, following Lahabrea's lead and matching his steps ]
Keep this up and I might end up asking you to dance with me on a regular basis. You are quite talented.
[Look he's well aware how much Five likes to be in charge, it's very endearing every time he can see Five feels comfortable enough with him not to insist on it at all times.
And dancing like this is really just... For the fun of it. Not skill or finesse, though he's good at leading it, it isn't a performance, it's just having a good time.]
I should have set this up sooner, then. I would be delighted to be your partner more often.
[He spins Five once and dips him, grinning as he pulls him up and shifts his stance, passing lead in the dance to Five.]
[ he laughs as he spins and dips him, and once he pulls him up and lets him take the lead he decides it's a competition. He's not overdoing it but he's certainly more careful about showing off, keeping his eyes on Lahabrea the entire time, just enjoying doing this with him ]
Let's do this more often then. Especially if that'll get you to keep smiling like that. You're as beautiful and warm as ever.
[Well, he can't deny he enjoys seeing Five strive to impress, he follows the be lead, grinning without reserve though when Five speaks it does earn a blush.]
Really, stealing the words from my lips.
But yes, let us do this more. You look equally as if you are enjoying it, after all. Having fun is a good look on you.
[ he just smiles at the words, humming in contention, and then he's pulling him closer just so he can kiss him - soft and gentle, before he lets him go but reaches for his hand ]
You and Hades do make it easier for me to relax enough for that.

You make me sound sweeter than I am.

[He'll watch him eat, expression fond before starting to himself.]
Re: Day 384
[ he's trying to be rough because he's embarrassed, is it working ]
Re: Day 384
[He's so fond of this man even when he's being tsun. Especially so?]

Come now, I will always invite you to try. If only for the fact that your sulking is ever appealing.
Re: Day 384
[ He totally is sulking ]
But I will bide my time and strike back when you least expect it.

Full glad am I to hear it. That is, I believe, both of our intentions. To give you some happiness.
Re: Day 384
Re: Day 384
You know that you do so, do you not?
Re: Day 384
Not enough for my standards but yes, I know I make a passable effort.
Re: Day 384
[He shakes his head, amused.]
Very well, I look forward to your surpassing yourself and reaching the height of your standards.

When.
