Azwel

The motion is sudden and Carden makes a little squeaking gasp of a noise. His posture has gone tense by the time Azwel has a hand on him, but even though he's tense, his pupils have blown wide, breath caught in his throat and his cheeks are on fire. Still, he also gives the impression that he's either about to faint or run, mouth working and failing to form syllables for a long series of moments, so what comes out is likely more than just a little bit surprising,

"Con-Convince me," it's not a request, even though he has to try several times to get the word out, "Convince me this isn't... that it's not... Why I ought to be a little scandalous."
