Summary: Even one-sided their conversations are of more interest than this.
So foolish, humes, to plan their folly thus.
Cid smiles, and is glad that his participation in this meeting is largely a formality. He does not do well dividing his attention between Venat and the intricacies of Archadian politics. They bore him, these petty lordlings with their attention focused only inward, scrabbling over straws. Vayne sees the vision that Cid does. He can steer them properly.
So instead he tilts his head slightly, an invitation to Venat. Even one-sided their conversations are of more interest than this.
But we shall break them from it soon enough.
It is better, perhaps, when he cannot respond. When he’s not talking back he’s in a better position to observe what Venat does to communicate.
She’s not visible, of course, but he can feel her presence as always. It’s even seems stronger than usual. Cid, to his constant dismay, has not yet pinned down Occurian physics—still, he feels, in an intuitive manner, that Venat is using whatever physical substance she has to feel his physical responses in lieu of spoken communication. He can sense it, a weight on his skin almost off the edge of perception.
It arouses him, which he suspects is not the particular reaction Venat was expecting; nor would the men around the table with him receive it well should they notice. That only makes him revel in it more.
He lets himself imagines what it could be like, back in his chambers, Venat still whispering in his ear. He could stay deliberately silent, and shuck his clothes so that weight, that presence, wrapped his bare skin. A little more substance and it would be much different, solid and almost smothering.
His penis pulses hotly, fully firm now, and he is grateful for the concealing span of the table.
