For all Daniel's addiction, Armand thinks he's just as bad. He soaks up Daniel's acceptance and his desire like the treasure it is, hungry for more after years of having to furiously chase being wanted -- and to play the right role. Heady, dizzy with it, Armand tips his chin upwards to steal more of that kiss, whining and desperate as the crowd flows around him.
"You see every monstrous part," he murmurs into the kiss, "every shamed weakness, and yet, you still kiss me like that," he marvels, tenderly stroking Daniel's neck with the backs of his knuckles. "And yet, I want you ever the same, no matter how many lives your stories have destroyed."
He'd nearly said it there, I love you all the same, but he wants that to be for a moment that isn't a boardwalk in public.
For one, he doesn't want the witnesses. For two, he's not sure he wants to fuck on this boardwalk.
Taking off his jacket so he can drape it over a shoulder and meander, he shoots Daniel a wink, taking out a pair of sunglasses to slide them on. "You'll have to define ugly for me," he notes, nodding his head to summon Daniel with him. "And just how far I'm allowed to destroy any of these gentlemen and ladies of cheating repute."
