"I'll walk if I think we need to keep up appearances." He echoes defiantly. "And I decided that we don't."

Luka's attempt at asserting his authority is undermined by the noise of surprise he makes as Garrot pushes against his back, with Luka's tightening grip on Garrot a further reminder of just how much he actually was at the man's mercy in the moment.

"Oh, you wouldn't be the first." He continues, playing along. "Needy isn't a good look, but I understand I'm particularly hard to get enough of." This wasn't true. Plenty of people had had enough of Luka after only a few minutes, but Luka would say those people just had bad taste.

He wasn't prepared for the sudden tone shift, and Garrot's statement leaves Luka feeling defensive.

"What is that supposed to mean?" He asks, suspicious.
