The answering grin is almost childlike in his michieviousness. 'Bargaining chip? And there I was, thinking you were just flirting with me the whole time.'
It's a poor way to dodge the question and he knows it. So he shrugs and says more seriously, 'I doubt we have reason to bargain like that again - you're not going to have any friends on the other side of the dispute now.'
He looks down at Random lying back and takes in the seeming fraility and almost wasted look of his body. He runs a hand down his chest and over his stomach, more exploratory than sexual. 'Your father did it? Why?'
I think I'd be disappointed if you told me everything Random. I know I won't... His thoughts slip quickly to the healing cut on his back before he puts a stop to it and brings himself back.
