Cleon was not completely oblivious. He could sense a sort of tension emanating off of the other man. He couldn't imagine why that might be. He knew quite well that Tycho's preferences were not completely tied into the fairer sex. Tycho had not mentioned having a new lover so he doubted that this was that. The other man did not usually let him stay over whenever he was in the midst of an ongoing dalliance. He had mentioned a friend who had been helping him with his shows and some other things Cleon couldn't quite remember due to having been quite drunk at the time. Was this that friend? Now he wished he could recall more of the conversation.

The tone of the other mostly just served to amuse him. He took a sip of his drink to hide his amused smile. He didn't know if it was just his imagination but Greengrass spoke like he expected Cleon to fight against the fact that Greengrass and Tycho were apparently good friends. "We met at a party a couple of years back now. We are both poets so we got into a discussion about that and the rest was history." And now the Seer was on his list of people he sweet talked into letting him stay over at their place. Never mind that his actual home was just minutes away over in North Bartonburg but that was besides the point. "And what about you? How did you meet our dear soothsayer?"

In any other circumstance, Cleon might have tried to win the other mans favour. He could always use more friends and of course, liked garnering new friends and friendly acquaintances. However, the vibe he got from the other man at the moment was that Greengrass would not currently be receptive to an obvious attempt at it.
