He moves further into the suite, and settles himself next to Grayson with a catlike grace and a cat's comfort with placing itself wherever suits, regardless of whether it's about to get fur on a prized piece of furniture. When he turns to the vampire, his gaze is fixed on Grayson's face with a particular focus.]
To answer your question about why I believe you, it's threefold. I feel that numbness, I am exceptionally less idiotic, but I've also known you for long enough to remember what it was like to be around you sometimes.
What happened? [If he had to guess from context clues, it's that someone's been hurt. It's happened between them before, but he'll ask rather than start with blunt assumptions.]
