Bruce felt like he was going to explode or something. He was observant, and saw how she turned the cup and the took such a delicate sip. His training in Japan had taught him much, and Bruce was an astute enough man to be quite aware of Talia's flirtations with him.
Clearing his throat, Bruce drew himself up, the motion drawing him closer to Talia. He wasn't quite sure what drew him to reach out, his fingers picking and the sleeve of her traveling clothes. They weren't nearly as fine as some of the things he had seen her in before, during their long talks in the walled garden of her father's stronghold, but the fabric was still fine and it gave him something to focus on. Something of hers to touch that wasn't directly Talia's flesh.
Lips parted as though he might say something, Bruce then turned his dark eyes up to Talia's face before he said softly, "Swans are not the only creature who mates for life. Wolves.. penguins.." he then smirked a bit in amusement, and added "Humans are supposed to as well, though it doesn't always happen like that in the city that I am from. Perhaps here in the desert, things are different.."
