Loki stiffened, recoiled, even, as he contemplated the implications of Maggie's suggestion.
"Oh," he said.
Even if he wanted to, there'd be no point in asking the couple to 'find a room'. The thought of it forced Loki to disguise an amused smirk. From the sound of it, all the efforts of the amorous couple had finally yielded fruit, and their passion was beginning to cool. They bobbed on the water, smiling at each other, panting. It was enough to make him wonder what in the blasted sky he was doing with his life. He shouldn't be sharing a bath with a huge Trianii, and explaining teahouse etiquette to an attractive woman; he should be sharing a bath with an attracive woman, and laying the etiquette on her. Stars, he was horny.
"In Madame Maillanaarro's teahouse, sexual relations are permitted. Encouraged, even." He smiled, now, entertained by the thought of Maggie's shattered illusions, "I am surprised your friend neglected to mention this."
