[ ah, well. fei du tilts his head a bit, subtly, into that hand, into the one on his pulse. he doesn't flinch or move beyond that though, his heartbeat perfectly steady and unbothered, and his gaze stays locked on rang lee's.
there's an intensity to it, though - there's a little mischief to it, too. it's hard to get a good read on fei du, even like this, but that shines. ]
And what are you implying, Rang? I wonder if I should be offended.
[his smile grows a little wider at that, thumb pressing harder. not too hard, just enough. he's a little disappointed that he can't feel it beating wildly under his skin, feels strange that this effort to touch isn't rooted in something violent, for once.]
Can't be offended if it's something I'd do myself.
[TAPS HEAD well that's just the vibe, he doesn't actually tap his head,]
Unless you're like Blondie, all principled and self-righteous.
[ just enough is fine - his chin tips up a little further, but only responsively. there's no flutter, even at that, and his eyes are a little dark? this is unfortunate.
they light up a little with that, though, and he laughs, finally, eyes crinkling up in the corners. ]
No, no, I wouldn't say that. [ "principled", "self righteous" ] Like recognizes like.
[ there's a pause, and his voice dips a little, almost a purr. ] In a myriad of ways.

You must be the ambitious type.
[Rang does another little tippy tap, before trailing his finger and thumb down the side of Fei Du's face, neck, thumb casually finding his pulse,]
But I wonder. How far will you go for that opportunity?
