There's only going up from here

Koa

Now I just want to play on my panpipes
I just want to drink me some wine

Oh gods he's adorable. Koa tries and fails to stifle a laugh as the (very weak) innuendo is followed by a captivating blush, and man, the Dragoon really wants to reach out and pinch that crimson cheek. "Don't worry, I've had worse," he chuckles warmly, clearly unperturbed by the accidental flirtation.

Koa? Finding an excuse to slack off? Nooooo. His eyes grow wide with mock-indignation, a hand flying up to press his heart. "Why, it'd be more neglectful not to help you," he responds with playful earnestness. "Without me you might be forced to walk around shirtless, and we can't have that level of public indecency here. Everyone will be too busy admiring you to get anything done."

Relaxing out of his dramatic posture, Koa shoves his hands into his pockets and sets out in the direction of the shops. "Anyway, I doubt you need any help in the charm department," the Dragoon comments playfully as they walk, glancing sidelong to give the boy a solid (and appreciative) once-over. "You've got the whole gorgeous doe-eyed thing going for you. Just bat those eyelashes and people will come running. It certainly worked on me."

As soon as you're born you start dyin'
