[Max reaches out to gently smooth his thumb across Helios's bottom lip to stop him worrying it bloody. He offers a small smile and it still gave him a thrill to be able to do that, touch him.]

It's okay. I- yeah, we should just make sure we have a good night. Got everything we need right here. The best of company.

[He gave that question some serious thought. It wasn't as though he'd been planning on making a public announcement or anything, but he also didn't want to make Helios feel like he was trying to hide it, or embarrasssed or anything.]

I don't want to hide it, you know. [He gave a wry smile at the thought.] I'm kind of obvious so... But it's what you're comfortable with. I'm happy to keep things discrete though. It isn't like we have to go around telling everyone we meet or kissing in the village square in full view.
