[Muffled though his words are, Luca still manages to find it himself to be a little bit of a gremlin.]

And being that you cannot besmirch the Rosfield name, you certainly would not let me down, right?

[kingincognito]

[ A gremlin, indeed. If Joshua's cheeks were pink before, they're a flushed red now. ]

I, ah. I would not, no. I could not bear to disappoint you.

[unheiring]

[Luca tips his head back just a little. He feels better, now that the shoe is in the other foot.]

Ah, that's what I thought. Now we have something to look forward to, don't we?

[kingincognito]

[ At least Joshua takes it gracefully. Even if he can't make his face stop flushing red. It will have to do that on his own. ]

I suppose we do. You are certainly setting the stage.

[ Not that he's complaining. It's rather... exciting, having such a teasing partner. ]

[unheiring]

[Unfortunately, there is plenty more to come, in that regard, especially as Luca grows more comfortable with their relationship. Joshua may not survive.]

Mm, well... I ought to let you go until then. Lest I tempt you into abandoning your chivalry.

[Not that he particularly wants Joshua to leave but... alas.]

[kingincognito]

[ Not surviving is suddenly a tantalizing prospect. ]

How kind of you, truly, after rendering its legs trembling.

[ But it's said with a smile, as he reluctantly parts and stands up. Their talk has been had, and with quite the favorable outcome, at that. He couldn't have hoped for more. ]

I shall take my leave for the evening. However, ere we part...

[ He moves, collecting Luca's hand in his own and bending down as he brings it to his lips, pressing a gentle and delicate kiss to Luca's knuckles. ]

Thank you. For everything.

[unheiring]

[As Joshua stands, Luca finds himself reaching out, hoping to twin his fingers through the other man's and -

Do exactly what Joshua does, as it turns out.

Luca tries to find it in himself to look annoyed. The attempt is probably a failure overall, but an attempt is made!]

Mmph. Do have a good evening. Be safe on the terribly long walk back.
