ABASI
"I am sure it would not remain a 'dance' for long." Abasi replied, picking up on the suggestiveness in Loren's tone - once, he had not had much of an ear for such things, but a mix of hope and attentiveness when it came to the Launceleyn had gotten him more used to it.
He noticed Loren's surprise at his mention of slaves and reacted with a surprise of his own; he knew from earlier conversations that some of the people here came from worlds that disapproved of such practices, but had he truly never mentioned it before? "Yes, slaves. They used to dance and play their music in the night, when their jobs were done." Sometimes, back home, he would listen to the tunes made by strange, unfamiliar instruments under the stars and wonder what the names of them were - not that he had ever gone to ask, of course.
Abasi did not stay so close for long, pulling back away in case they were gathering too much attention.
