Angel can't help his laughter at her guess. "No, not a tiara. A necklace, or earrings - or both - but... you know the phrase 'dripping in diamonds?' That kind of necklace." Although she'd look good with any color of precious gems.
"I'm not sure 'literal demon magnet' is quite accurate - just the one demon was attracted to you," he can't help but murmur, getting sidetracked for just a moment over the thought.
It's only a slight reprieve, as her reaction to his comment about piercings is definitely worth paying attention to. He can hear her heart pounding, recognizes the signs of her arousal even if he couldn't practically taste it in the air around her. "You'd be surprised the kind of people I've met over the years. Vampire and human. There was a tattoo artist in Reno in the 60s who was interested in piercing. He figured out what I was, and kept pestering me to let him 'practice' on me, since I heal fast and couldn't get infections. I did not agree," he's quick to inform her, "but it was still interesting, listening to him talk about stuff."
He laughs again when she realizes what he's done. Bending his head closer to where she has hers pressed to his shoulder, he murmurs, "That is the perfect tease. Awful - and doesn't leave the teaser unaffected."
