[Kohl-lined amber eyes widen when Ravus starts to say his first name and his lips, thankfully only coated in a pigmented chap-stick, split into a Cheshire grin at the flustered correction. Maybe losing that bet was worth it after all.]

Thanks Ravus. [Gladio's voice purrs as Ravus passes him, the seductive voice meant only for the silver-haired stud.

Though he wants to follow the TA, wanting to see if he can turn those porcelain cheeks a shade of pink or even red, he opts instead to take the seat Ravus vacates. He'll get up once the man returns, but why not keep the seat warm for him? Plus talking to his friends might help him gain some insight into his current crush prey.

As he sits, he makes sure to fluff his skirt to avoid ruining it (dude, this costume isn't some flimsy thing-it's practically the real deal) and even crosses his legs at the ankles like a proper lady would (or like a harlot playing at one) before leaning slightly in towards Loqi.] So what sorts of things do you TAs do for fun? Got any fun stories about us lowly undergrads?

[His smile is charming and in no time he's the center of attention, offering genuine laughter and interjecting here and there with some of the dumber things he's seen his peers try getting away with.] And then, the idiot had the balls to look our Professor dead in the eyes and say "Honestly I thought I could offer to suck your dick to get out of this test"! Can you believe - [Gladio can't contain his laughter anymore and practically howls at the memory.

When Ravus returns, he will find the brunet still in his spot and sitting close enough to Loqi that their thighs touch as Gladio smiles almost coquettishly at the blond and urges him to tell another story. It might even look like Gladio's completely forgotten about Ravus as he doesn't instantly notice the TA's return.]
