Yesssssss

She's so pretty.

Even when she isn't grievously injured!

Even then!

"The burning thing was inspired."

He laughs. "Thank you!"

"Being painfully ra--fucked is fun but I hadn't imagined it could be the actual intercourse that hurt that much."

Nuzzle. "Well, I'm glad you liked it."

"Well I am glad you're creative and snuggly. So there." She sticks her tongue out at him. 

He laughs and kisses her on the cheek.

"And you're cute! Why is the Emperor cute???"

"Why not?"

"You don't exactly cultivate a reputation for it! --For that matter no one warned me you were hot. I'm actually kind of irked about that one, I should have been warned."

"People are strangely offended if the staff try to mention it."

Giggle. "Really? It feels like the kind of thing that would be useful to know!"

"I think the complaint is that if someone is reluctantly attending my parties because they need money, I'm the last thing they want to be thinking about and learning that I'm good-looking just makes them uncomfortable."

"I mean, absent the 'reluctant' part, that's why I went, and oh look, you showed up."

"The 'reluctant' part is why they don't want to think about me!"

"But if they don't think about you they're worse off if you do show up!"

"Are they, though?"

"I know I would have preferred to know you were hot!" Kiss. 

Mmm, kiss.

"I think you're different from most people that way!"
