[At Cid's complaint, he relaxes his hold a little. At least enough to let him breathe more comfortably.]

I am unused to this.

[That's about as close to an apology as Cid is going to get. At the comment on his apartment and the Einherjar, Barnabas doesn't comment. He doesn't even react, really. He simply waits for the sign that—

Ah, there it is.

There's the distinct crackle of energy as a small portal opens and out comes the cigars, Barnabas grabbing the package with an eagerness that one might expect from an addict. Which he is, in his own way. Putting one between his lips, he looks to Cidolfus expectantly as he dissolves the rest into his armory again.

Light him up, bitch.]

[Oh, he takes more than that starting puff to keep the flame ignited, he drinks deep that smoke so he might be sated and freed of this desire. He cannot deny the crest of satisfaction that breaks over him, cascading through his mind and body like supping life giving water after traversing a horrid desert.

For a moment, he almost forgets Cid's own need, so wrapped up in the indulgent feeling of this. In fact, when he realizes that he's left Cid waiting with only a small taste of smoke to tie him over—he chuckles.

Then, he slowly blows the smoke out over Cid, sensual and measured, his mind much calmer than it was moments ago as he holds the cigar between his fingers.]


I will not get used to this, I will correct it ere long. Yet, for now, for this day... I will suffer it.

[For you, is what's left unsaid.]
