[ Damian is happy to take that moment to regard Rupert in turn, and does it with a small, faint smile. He is a good looking man, that's certainly true, but Damian can't help but appreciate the other aspects of him. The current cluelessness, the temper he knows resides somewhere in there, and the way it would undoubtedly flare if he knew the full context of this meeting. His small smile curls up just slightly, and he wonders how that stab at his side has fared. It must have been healed by someone, surely. It would only have been lethal if left absolutely untreated, but he'd definitely be favoring his side without some kind of powers-based intervention.

Rupert's invitation pulls him out of thought, and the smile fades into a well-practiced faintly embarrassed look. ]

Before anything else, I should mention there's a caveat here. And frankly I'll understand if it's something you don't want to work around.
