Over the past annual Cain had grown accustomed to Glitch's eccentricities. Still, when presented with a naked headcase in his bed, he wasn't quite sure how to react. Glitch was covered by a sheet from the waist down, but there was still plenty of pale, freckled skin on display as he dozed.
Cain frowned, then carefully prodded a bony shoulder. "Hey."
The poke got a flinch and an annoyed grumble before Glitch cracked an eye open. "Mweh?"
"Hey," Cain said again and folded his arms. "I think you got a little turned around."
Glitch blinked and shook his head. "No, no, I'm fine, I'm--" He paused for an expansive yawn and waved his arm. "I'm here to seduce you."
"Right," Cain said and sat at the foot of the bed. "See, I was made to believe there were strict courtly rules and regs for that. Even where I'm from it's just proper etiquette to ask someone to dinner first."
Glitch snorted. "Please, Cain. If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never have got anywhere." The he paused, considered Cain's words, and started tugging the sheet to cover himself more. "Have I gotten anywhere?"
Cain patted Glitch's feet. "Put your clothes on, Glitch."
"Oh."
"And let me take you to dinner."
"...oh!"
