Zhi-Yin was calming down now, fascinated by the fangs. "Incredible." Without hesitation, he nearly ran to the side of the pool Leo stood in in an attempt to get closer. "I've... never seen someone who looks quite like you. I have heard of adornment for ones teeth, but not one that made one resemble a predator- Ah-" He caught himself rambling, even more flustered now than before as he felt he overstepped the boundary of polite speech. @Morgan | Clove 🦇 + Leo 🩸 |

At least this guy wasn’t comparing his likeness to a jar of eyeballs. Leo was reveling in the attention, and for that reason alone, he’d humor this stranger. He sauntered closer to Zhi-Yin, lowering himself slightly so he didn’t tower as much over the other man. “You’re very right- these are not for show,” he grinned. “If you’re interested, I’ll let you see them up close- this time I won’t bite. You seem rather… put off by my appearance, I can’t help but notice. Though, you stand out here as well.” he hummed, looking the other man up and down. @Gab || Armand 🐠|Zhi-Yin 🌬

His interest was immediately back once Leo spoke. "Wait so these are the teeth of a predator-" He inched closer, hesitating as the reality of the offer had finally set in. How... did he have such sharp teeth? And why are they not for show? This man has clearly never heard of a vampire before. "I apologize for my behavior, I believed I overstepped in my curiosity. It's quite humbling when I'm told I've spoken too much. I don't suppose you could clarify as to how I stand out compared to yourself?" @Morgan | Clove 🦇 + Leo 🩸 |

“But I understand. If not for curiosity, then I don’t think I would be here.” Leo hummed, flashing a quick grin to continue to keep his fangs on display. Oh, the attention felt good. “And I will let you know if you talk too much. I’ve experienced it for all too many years, and you’re nothing close to her- so I suppose that’s one in many areas where you stand out to me. That and your hair, it’s very… striking. To whom do I owe the pleasure of speaking to?” @Gab || Armand 🐠|Zhi-Yin 🌬

Zhi-Yin listened to Leo, although it might not have looked like it considering he was very focused on Leo's fangs. "Oh, how rude of me." He chuckled as he took a step back. "My name is Luo Zhi-Yin." He did a little bow as he introduced himself. "And you are?" @Morgan | Clove 🦇 + Leo 🩸 |

“Leo Von Claret.” came Leo’s confident response. He smiled once again, his grin sly and hungry, so perfectly mirroring what Zhi-Yin was seemingly seeking. He moved a little closer to the other man- closing the distance between them- his red eyes meeting Zhi-Yin’s green. He leaned in still, lowering his voice as if he were going to tell him a secret, though it was anything but. “I’m the most interesting man you’ll ever meet.” @Gab || Armand 🐠|Zhi-Yin 🌬
