Why do you think so little of yourself, brother?

[st_ratagem]

I don’t. I think realistically of myself.

[st_ormbreaker]

Sounds fake, but okay.

[st_ratagem]

I consider fifteen hundred years to be a significant pile of evidence.

[st_ormbreaker]

You ever consider that perhaps you're not unlikeable, just unapproachable?

[st_ratagem]

If that were the case, there would have been exceptions, at least once or twice over the centuries. There are none.

[st_ormbreaker]

You are very unapproachable.

Did you ever show interest in anyone else, other than that one girl?

[st_ratagem]

Not even her, technically.

But why would I? No one wants that sort of mess from me.

[st_ormbreaker]

So let me get this straight.

[st_ormbreaker]

You don't show interest in anyone else, but expect that if anyone had interest in you, they would show it.

[st_ratagem]

No, brother, not for a very long time. I expect nothing at all, because ‘interest in me’ is a ridiculous premise.

‘Sustained interest in me’, I should say. Fleeting sexual interest does happen, thankfully, or I’d have fewer tools available for use.

[st_ormbreaker]

Fewer tools?

[st_ratagem]

Sex, Thor. It’s useful in addition to being fun, and doesn’t require sustained interest.

[st_ormbreaker]

You think someone would have sex with you without finding you attractive?

[st_ratagem]

Without attachment, yes, absolutely. Physical attraction is probably present to at least some degree, but I don’t think it’s necessary.

[st_ormbreaker]

I'm pretty sure the Grandmaster had a sustained interest in you.

[st_ratagem]

Two weeks, if that, from what I hear.

[st_ormbreaker]

Two weeks is a sustained interest.

[st_ormbreaker]

I think he considered you more like a pet, though.

[st_ratagem]

Probably. If he’s the sort to buy people, which he was since he bought you, anyone would be a toy. I’d do my best to arrange to choose what kind of toy I am.

[st_ormbreaker]

A sex toy.

[st_ormbreaker]

Though to be fair, I'm pretty sure I was his pet, too. Just not one he wanted to sleep with.

[st_ratagem]

You didn’t try, either, I imagine.

[st_ormbreaker]

Does it make you feel better that someone would rather sleep with you than me?

[st_ratagem]

I doubt such a person exists. When you’re an option, you must be a better one.
