[Even though Nathan is an adult, turning 20 in a month, it can be easy to forget his actual age. Though Lazarus doesn't condescend to him as a rule, there are certain topics that feel vaguely taboo. Going into detail about adult relationships is one of them, and it's obvious that Nathan feels the same way when he clears his throat and flings his gaze elsewhere.
They differ in that Lazarus has an interest in adult sexual relationships and pursues them, and maybe that's what really makes this uncomfortable when they are supposed to essentially be different versions of the same person where they're from, according to some of their uncannier echoes.]
Of... course.
[Meaningful stare. Did Nathan get it, understand it? Almost certainly. No real reason to dwell.]
It occurred to me that she might have gotten it removed. She disapproves of tattoos, mine included, but there wasn't evidence of that either upon further examination in different lighting. It looked and felt as smooth as if it had never been inked.
