[Byleth doesn't mind helping out with the tea. He knows how busy Claude has been lately, and he's just glad that they have a free afternoon to spend together.
He smiles softly at the kiss, then takes his seat at the table across from Claude.]
It's fine. I'm always happy to help.
[He adds a bit of sugar to his own cup, stirring the tea before taking a sip as well.]
Very pleasant, as always. [Another smile as he continues to sip slowly at the brew. Nothing seems off about it at first... but eventually Byleth does feel a certain heat beginning to spread throughout his body. He shifts a bit in his seat, glancing down from Claude's face briefly as he feels a startling stirring of arousal.
So far he doesn't suspect, but still. This is quite strange.]
[That smile makes his expression soften, still a bit lovesick for the sight of it even after all their time together.
It almost makes him feel bad for the little trick, but... well, Byleth knew all too well what he was getting into by being with Claude. And he had agreed to being his test subject from time to time.]
It's the Leicester Cortania blend. Thought I'd spoil you a little, after all the lovely tea parties you've set up for me in the past. [Claude winks, starting to feel the effects himself. He'd already stripped down a bit, taking off his royal accouterments and leaving just the essential articles of clothing, but he unbuttons his shirt just a bit as well. The heat is starting to get to him.
And, well, if it shows off his collar bone and the dusting of chest hair he's so very proud of, all the better.]
