Everest
Giving himself a mental check so as not to outpace Mateo, Ever glances over his shoulder as dimples appear on his friend's cheeks. His own cheeks are hollowed with the force of his frown, and though he understands all the words that the botanist is saying, he can't make sense of it at all.
"What about something being off limits makes it more tempting?" He wonders earnestly, and though the day is quite warm, that's not the only reason that Ever's forehead has begun to break out in beads of sweat. "So if I were to...be more available then, would that make me less tempting and thus less touched?" If yes his next question would be how he could make himself more available, though in reality Everest was concerned that the logic wouldn't flow backward the way on paper it normally would.
