Felix had only half-believed Valentine that he would be welcomed with tea and not immediately coaxed to the bedroom. In fact, he wasn't entirely convinced until the man released his arm inside the venerable old estate -- impressive and unexpected -- and allowed Felix the freedom to explore his surroundings.
His attention was arrested by the art as soon as his eyes adjusted to the change in light, and he drifted to examine the paintings as soon as Valentine had stepped away. As he studied the themes and subjects in the artwork, he lost himself quickly in his own thoughts.
A tryst with a near-stranger certainly wasn't unusual for Felix, but in his experience, those men willing to take him home were hungry and ready to devour him the moment they were alone. What was it that made Valentine so different? It wasn't an unpleasant situation, just... strange.
Felix quickly lost track of the time he'd spent wandering around the nearby rooms, absorbed in the wealth of interesting, unexpected information about his host.
