Even with nerves and slightly shaky hands it doesn't take him that long to do what he needs to. When he looks over at Nadayaki he nearly drops the gun. That's something even he can't mistake.

"You...you don't have to thank me." It comes out sounding harsher than he means. Kid's been on the street, maybe heading to jail, gets given shelter. Of course the kid would think there's a catch. That's what Mort would have thought when he was younger.

He swallows. The temptation is there. Nadayaki is beautiful and smells good and how long has it been since he's held someone? Well there was Zinzi, but Mort had been not entirely sober, not entirely there. He had no illusions that she would be jealous. Even if he was taking advantage of the kid, he should. He wants to.
