stay your pretty eyes on course
Rolling his eyes as she successfully catches his mistruth, and likely would have done with or without a truth ring, Niki exhales a long, hard sigh that briefly puffs out his cheeks before slouching back in his chair to look up at her. Flora is perched over him like some divine matchmaker, beach kissed and wrapped in white, though her suggestions are anything but innocent. "Yes, well," he mutters, a thread of agreement stitching into his tone, "I do not exactly have experience there either, but I do not doubt it. Especially given that Sunjata does not have a heart currently."
That shouldn't matter, not if it was just sex, and yet it spills out regardless.
In response to her more genuine warmth, he offers her a playful if not pointed wrinkle of his nose, fingers drumming lightly on the cover of the book in his lap. "It is lucky for us both that I do not put my chastity on a pedestal then," he says, a hint of dry humour working its way back into his voice, even if his face still feels like it's on fire. "Believe me, it is not that I am saving myself for something grand or world shattering. But I appreciate the advice nevertheless."

I guess I never really faced my fears before
