Sid liked to go rowdy places with friends, or when he just wanted to have fun and and dance, maybe punch someone's teeth out, maybe fight someone and have the night end with harsh makeouts and needy grinding. But right now he didn't want either of those things. He wanted to annoy Deith. And while both of those things might've annoyed him, it would also distract Sid from his primary goal.
Even then, he had been expecting a sneer. A look of contempt that the place was clearly not meeting his high princely standards that Lei seemed to think he had when it came to these kinds of things.
What he certainly hadn't been expecting was a nod of approval. That caught him off guard. Sid looked into the sky to see if it was falling, or if the crescent moon had gone full and bloodshot. Deith's voice was smooth when he talked to him, the voice that Lei told him about, that made him feel like the most important guy in the world, and hearing it made him shudder.
Not in the sensual way it made Lei shudder, but in the uncomfortable way. The way that spiders--even now--would make his skin crawl and his muscles bunch up.
This was weird. Even Deith's placid acceptance of his name, "Your Distastefulness" made not even a single ripple in his facade.
What the fuck.
Was Deith starting to act like Ardos too?
Sid entered behind Deith and moved quickly to the bar, sitting on one of the stools.
"Hey Rascal, how's your son?" Sid grinned at the small smile the bartender gave him. "A round of Tequila please. Oh, and some raspberry vodka on the rocks, too."
