Panel 1: Javier starts to say something to Ferris, beginning with "You have..." as he drops his hands from the finger frame from the last page and begins to transform into a shadowy mist. The mist overflows the bottom and right side of the panel, moving over and into the next panel.

Panel 2: Javier's mist moves behind Ferris, who is still gazing off the bridge into the city or the canal and seemingly doesn't notice as Javier beings to materialize behind him. Javier's clawed hands reach out for him menacingly to the viewer.

Panel 3: Javier grabs and spins Ferris around, now almost entirely back to normal, save for some shadow effect at his legs and feet. Ferris looks suprised as he stabilizes himself on the railing of the bridge now pinned there by Javier. Javier finishes his sentence, "...absolutely no patience. But then again..."

Panel 4: Close up on Javier taking Ferri's face in a hand and leaning in like he's going for a kiss. He finishes, "...your allure is testing mine as well." Ferris has calmed and looks like he actually does want that kiss.

Panel 5: Finally Javier and Ferris start making out, with Javier holding Ferris jaw and back of his neck in his hand, pulling Ferris into the kiss.Lots of hearts and smooching sounds.
Panel 1 & 2: Third page environmental shot of an elegant stone walking bridge with iron trellises for flowers across a small canal. There's an insert panel of Javier saying "As promised" to a shocked Ferris as the round a corner. Ferris replies with "Well... I suppose it is pretty. Panel 3: Ferris has hopped up onto the bridge grabbing the trellis in one hand and leaning back seductively to Javier saying " What do you think? Do my eyes catch the moonlight as well as you'd hoped?" Panel 4: Reverse shot of Javier making the framing hands by his face as if to frame Ferris with his thumb and index fingers. Javier stands at the base of the bridge still, and there's a silhouette of Ferris' ass at the top where Javier is looking. Panel 5: Javier's POV with the silhouetted fingers framing the shot of Ferris from behind, shaking his ass at Javier as he says, "I look even better with my clothes off..." Panel 6: Still Javier's POV with the finger frame but zoomed in on Ferris' face, specifically his neck where we can see Javier focusing on his cartoid artery. Ferris is smirking over his shoulder at Javier, unaware of his focus on blood, and continuing his line from the previous panel, "...should we ever make it to your place."

Ferris is smirking over his shoulder at Javier, unaware of his focus on blood, and continuing his line from the previous panel, "...should we ever make it to your place."
Panel 1: Ferris looks back over his shoulder at the fading sounds of the populated streets as Javier leads him away down an empty alleyway at night. Javier is glancing at Ferris with a slight smile and a thought bubble with a little cartoon vamp face. Panel 2: Ferris finally addresses Javier as they walk past closed shopfronts in the empty street, saying "I thought you said you had a place close by?" Javier holds Ferris' shoulder and gestures replying "Ah, you've caught me." Panel 3: Javier continues, gesturing ahead of them "I'm afraid I'm a hopeless romantic and I was hoping to lead you past the canal. The view at night is nearly as beautiful as you are." Javier's free hand brushes Ferris' cheek, while Ferris looks unimpressed by Javier's statement. Panel 4: Close up on Ferris with Javier silhouetted next to him, with Ferris saying "Is that so? Well there's only one view I'm really interested in." Panel 5: Close up on Javier with Ferris now silhouetted next to him, "Patience. It would be a sin not to indulge in your beauty." Panel 6: Ferris grabs Javier's hand and removes it from his shoulder, and Javier looks like he's attempting to smooth over the situation. Javier says, "It's just up ahead. Honest." Ferris mutters quietly "Sure it is..."

Panel 1: Szelek and Javier glare at each other angrily, indicating some possible bad blood between the two. There's an effect like a power clash where their gazes meet. Panel 2 (insert): Close up of Javier's toothy vampire smile. Panel 3: Javier smirks while asking, "Have I broken a rule or are you just... wasting my time? Ferris is still locked arm in arm with Javier and looks somewhat puzzled by the question, or simply drunk off his butt and not following. Panel 4: Close up of Szelek rolling his eyes in response to Javier's question, replying with "Tsk... I don't sense and compulsion.." Panel 5: Javier responds to Szelek's admission with, "Good. Then we'll be leaving." Javier holds a hand up to his face, pulling Ferris in conspiritorially to whisper-speak to him while still locking eyes with Szelek, "Pay him no mind. He tired of flirting with the scraps left at the end of his shift." In the foreground we see Szelek reacting to Javier's comment, indicating that it's said loud enough for him to hear it. Ferris blows out a chuckle at Javier's comment with an expression of humorous pity for Szelek. Panel 6: Ferris and Javier exit out the door into the night streets of Varrosh, laughing, mostly at Szelek's crappy situation. Szelek watches them leave with annoyance, muttering under his breath, "Dick..." and picks up his tea.

Panel 1: Ferris makes a dick sucking gesture and waggles his tongue as he says to Hamlin, "You only say that because you know first hand how much that is." Hamlin on the right angrily sips his mug of wine and replies, "Don't remind me. You're exquisite, but I'm in dire need of a change of scenery. " Elwen, who's sitting between them, rolls her eyes and raises her hands in a futile gesture, releasing a "TCH!" in frustration. Panel 2: Close up on Elwen worriedly chiming in to Ferris.

Panel 3: wide shot of the whole table in silence, shocked that Elwen spoke up. on the left, chibi Aera and Fiora say to each other "Elwen never talks..." "Was that an omen?" Ferris is just frozen with his hand still holding an imaginary dick, but looking dumbstruck at Elwen's warning. Even Hamlin has stopped looking pissed to look surprised instead. Elwen just seems confused at the reaction like "What?" and her husband Dulliath nods at the advice with a little "sage wisdom" next to him. Panel 4: Ferris stands over Elwen's chair as she looks up at him still a bit confused. Ferris looks at Hamlin and winks as he says, "Well, I've had bad sex before." Hamlin yeets his mug into the distance to point an accusatory finger at Ferris, stuttering out, "You- You did not just imply- YOU BASTARD!" Panel 5: Ferris runs away laughing at that reaction as Hamlin shouts after him "I am the EPITOME of a selfless love you CUR!" Hamlin is chibified and thrashing in Dulliath's grip, who's holding him back. Elwen just has her face in her hands, and Fiora is cackling like mad, looking like that WHEEZE GIF.

Panel 1: Javier stands up out of his seat, slightly surprising Ferris and Fiora.

Next to him Elwen looks about to say something with a little "..wait...!" But Hamlin talks over her, tears still streaming down his face from the earlier rejection as he pops open a fresh wine bottle saying, "UGH! You know you're only so popular with men *sniff* ...because they can picture just how much of their dick they can *sob* ...squeeze into that gaping maw of yours when you sing."

Panel 6: Ferris has an empty bottle of wine in front of him and is tilet back in his chair draining the wine-filled mug like it's a race. Chibi Marion, Aera, and Fiora are all egging him on to get wasted yelling "Chug! Chug! Chug!" and "Drink!"
