Okay, Rinoa might be about to have some kind of seizure. Or rupture something. She was definitely having a spasm. And laughing again. Good thing she had convinced him they were, like, giggles of insane attractional ... something? Because holy shit.

It was really, really really hard to try to ( a ) breathe and ( b ) respond to that in a way that implied that she was just dying to drag him off somewhere and ravish him and ( c ) okay let's be honest she was still back on breathing.

She wasn't entirely sure he wasn't having a seizure.

"It's ... the ... manliness," she managed. "All the ... m-m-m-men around here are b-b-b-b-boys. Not ... men."
