[Dirk beams and claps John on the shoulder before he turns and makes his way through the flat to his room, still munching idly at the slice of bread. He has, for better or worse, a relatively unrefined understanding of his own persuasive powers -- it's only so intentional, the being impossible to deny. Part of the problem is of course that he means it: absolutely shameless earnestness is, apparently, a powerful tool.
He's humming again as he toes clumsily out of his shoes, which requires a rather more extended effort than it might normally, though this doesn't seem to do anything to put a damper on his mood. Jacket, tie, and belt follow in short order, being thrown haphazardly and with relish onto the floor. Dirk is generally a reasonably neat roommate, perhaps surprisingly so given his generally chaotic demeanour, but this tendency is a relic of his life at Black Wing and one he occasionally (for instance, when intoxicated) enjoys flouting.]
Avert thine eyes.
[The warning is sort of mumbled down his front distractedly as he tries to undo the buttons on his shirt one-handed, which requires a great deal of concentration at the moment. It's not until he's a few buttons in that he adds, at more conversational volume:]
