[ It's honestly a good thing that Eli breaks the theater tension here. Left to their own devices, McGillis and Celeste could probably keep going like this for an eternity, increasing the layers of metaphor and melodrama bit by bit...
But what is mostly metaphor is not entirely metaphor and McGillis does catch the hidden meaning. He and Celeste have certainly talked about it before, even if it was so many weeks ago that it feels like a very distant memory. ]
Human teeth can still cut, it's just a matter of using enough force.
[ Izou also has human teeth and god knows he made McGillis bleed with them. Which was incredibly annoying after the fact because of the healing process, but pretty sexy in the moment. Such is life, dating a demon. Between the Izou bites and the Celeste bite, McGillis really is only lacking Eli... hm.
Eli is who he turns to now, also. ]
I think your boyfriend is coming on to me.
[ And after the tense part of these conversations is now over, McGillis feels a bit more receptive to it. ]
