Oh? Heh... no. I mean, I have had a lot on my mind. But in that case, it was because I said something remarkably inept. And usually I'm very good at minding my tongue.

[Usually. Except when certain co-workers drove him to frustration.]

[He puts on another slight smile, huffs a very soft laugh.] I would certainly like to see how you come up with your explosives though.

Which probably makes me seem considerably less cultured than I am but a soldier can't be faulted his priorities. I promise you sir, I'm as big a fan of literature and poetry as I am explosives and toxins.

A shame, I'm more interested in seeing the credit your tongue gets you. [Way to understate his lecherousness, but Dorian is very good at appearing conversational about it.] It's fine, if you want to speak your mind, I like that. Too many people keep a jail within themselves, but as elegant as I am, even I make slip ups now and then. I cannot promise I'll be perfect all the time [a grin, yes he believes in his own flawlessness, but he's also playing] and that's okay, isn't it?

[Ah, and that draws a velvety laugh from Dorian, eyes dancing as he watches Miller.] Fine qualities for a man and perhaps you could recite some poetry to me if you have the time, that would be delightful...but we're not so different. I'm very fond of literature, but I also enjoy flashy things that explode.

[And that earns Miller a reassuring wink.]

Watch me work sometime, I'll make some Antivan Fire just for you.
