HARPER
The man is correct, Harper has no intentions of dragging up private matters. Even if it wasn't part of his job description to hold in confidence the going ons of the brothel, Harper isn't one to judge either party engaging in consensual sex work. So instead he keeps his face serene, eyes firmly away from the flush he can see burning past the alcohol flush on the stranger's face.
"Shore fishing or a boat?" Genuine interest lights up Harper's expression, glad the man had not merely swallowed down his free drink and walked out. Again he wants to ask why; why here, every single night without fail? He clamps his teeth against his tongue to keep from asking, only to immediately make an undignified and embarrassed noise at the man's next implication. Now it's his turn for his cheeks to turn hot, spluttering his drink slightly and lifting a hand to stop from spraying it all over the bar. "U-Uh no, I don't...do one night stands regardless of gender. I'm just there to keep them safe. Not that it stops them from flirting." Ears, too, go pink at this rate recalling the whistles and comments made (mostly) in jest. "I know, a bisexual romantic at heart who works in a brothel walks into a bar. Qiote the setup for a joke."
