“Let’s start with a straight answer to my earlier question, solely due to what we’re watching and your comment about Hefner parties.”
“I’m gay. That’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?”
“I try not to make assumptions. I ask, instead. Pity, though. Oh, god, /look/ at him. That is … excuse me. Mmmph.” She clears her throat. “Now, explain your strange answer to my self-deprecation, and then you can have three free answers out of me.”
“Well it’s not an assumption if it’s backed with substantial evidence. My strange answer? I tend to be callous towards how others perceive themselves. If you think you’re unworthy, then that’s your problem. I wouldn’t reserve any preconceptions before knowing you well enough to validate them.”
“I’m impressed; most people aren’t that sensitive.” She sticks her tongue out at him, upsidedown again. “I’ll remember that feminine appearance doesn’t mean anything to you anymore. Your turn. What answers would you like?”
“I’m not most people, if you’re unaware of that. My turn? I’ll pass. I’m no good with these things being forced, so it’s best that I don’t impose myself with the duty of picking answers from you.”
“Not even a little curious? You continue to surprise me.” Distracted again. “It is wholly unfair for a man to look like that. The things I would do with him … “
“Honesty is a quick way to get yourself disliked by the majority. If your honest words aren’t what they want to hear … well, there you are. And you avoid questions very well, Mr Stark.”
“The truth is never to anyone’s liking. Fact. And thank you. It’s a skill which I pride myself in.”
“Wish you wouldn’t, with me. It’s much harder to comprehend your emotions when you do that. I’m not here to do anything you don’t want, just to play and be a friend.”
“Hey, can’t have me cease the charade for one person. I’m an enigma in general. I appreciate that.”
“I’m already lookin’ under your mask, honey. So I do ask it. You lie like the Fae, and that’s very annoying. As a friend, yes? Be a little more honest to me.”
“What would you want to know?”

“By all means. But that’s not to say that I’m all for being fawned-over. There’s a reason why I’m watching a Chippendale’s live stream and not attending another God-forsaken Hefner affair.”
“I don’t /do/ fawning. I speak the truth, as I see it. Not into the distaff gender, then? Pity.”
“Honesty is a virtue, so can’t say I’m complaining. Isn’t it? That’s what they always tell me.”

“You have the /strangest/ reactions.” She drapes herself sideways in the chair and looks at him upsidedown. “I shouldn’t compliment you? I shouldn’t hit on you?”
