No offense, but that's the sloppiest bow I've ever seen. [ Smart ass. That's a point in the green-haired man's favor. Just plain agreeable tends to lead to awkward silences he's forced to fill in with conversation or action or risk boredom when it's entertainment he craves - banter, flirtation. Anything will do, as long as it's distracting enough, loud enough to drown out his memories. ]
Eye-catching - I'll give you that much. [ Now it's his turn to size the other man up, purposefully - waited until he's had his fill before helping himself. Despite the shocking color of his hair, the man looks solid beneath his flashy clothes. He's definitely young, judging from his eyes and the smoothness of his skin, maybe by about... 5-10 years? Carries himself like he owns the damn place. ]
Maybe. [ He can't give a straight answer right away, that would be too easy. He doesn't mind conversation, but he isn't the sort of guy (no matter how low he is now) to string someone along. He's if anything forthcoming, sets down expectations so there's no question about his intentions. ]
I'm not looking for anything long term, just... blowing off some steam.
[ Gladio leans a little closer. Even with his weight on the counter, he still towers over most people in the room and especially over Genji as he parks himself next to him. Despite playing coy, his body language continues to invite - he picks up the hanging length of scarf with his fingers, feeling the fabric between them. It's a subtle invasion of personal space he thinks isn't uninvited, but not so invasive as to get a drink dumped on him. ]
