Meat? Where I'm from having someone else attend to your grooming is pampering, though to your credit...I wouldn't trust an insect with my grooming either.

[And Dorian is used to having people wait on him hand and foot, so it's not such an offensive thing to him, while it might be to one who has never experienced something like this. He might have had a very privileged upbringing, but he could still see how this might be offensive to anyone who has not and how being touched might be offensive. Dorian was more hands on by nature, but he knew how to do boundaries.

His eyes also followed the same path that Adam's did, taking note of the battle scarred limbs he had, though bringing attention to them did help to draw the mage's eye. He knew nothing about technology and wouldn't risk using magic to help even if it was for something as cosmetic as buffering Adam's augs...he wasn't sure what would happen.

Still, maybe that thing the insect being was going to use could take care of it. The creature seemed more confident than Dorian did anyway.]

I did handle it better...no blood or ichor...no buggy entrails flying about. [Dorian was on the verge of cheeky now.] Though to be honest I wanted to watch you handle it. A man handling man's business is always exciting to watch from the sidelines.
