Diego only has a moment to let out a quiet, breathy laugh before his back’s at the window and Ravi’s mouth is on his. He returns the kiss with playful enthusiasm, no longer able to pretend he’s some brooding agent of a nonexistent king. Strong arms wrap around Ravi’s waist as he urges him in closer.

Despite character having been long since broken, the first thing Diego says when there’s a break in the kiss is another line from their pretend drama. But Diego sounds too cheerful, too faux-seductive, now that he’s unmasked. “Then shall I serve you as I did my country?” he says suggestively.
