[The mention of Dirk didn't bother him much, if at all. It had been a good and freeing introduction back into the intimacy game, but he hadn't thought it would last long. Loose bonds were what he was used to unless it was his brothers, and Dirk leaving was a shame but again no unexpected. Someone like that was too restless to stay in one place long as an adult.
He watched K, sensing there might have been a comment coming his way but it never manifested. If anything, there was a moment where he thought a shadow of sadness was there? No, surely not... and yet, the idea itself nudged at a very, very rare sympathetic inkling.]
That sounds like you're encouraging me to come and visit you more often. You aren't growing attached, are you? [He knew that droids in their galaxy could attach themselves to humans, but he'd never experienced it. K was far more advanced, so it seemed highly plausible. Except him of all people?] You've already taken what little virginity I have left with this drink. I'd be willing to try others.

But being useful is how I contribute. Nothing is free unless you give something in return or just take it. [He watched K over the rim of his glass, and he inclined his head towards the touch. His eyes half closed in pleasure at the contact, and he issued a short burst of a purr before he was taking another sip of his drink. He wasn't interested in nursing it like the others.]

Are you lonely?
