They used a young man with whom I'd had a night very much like this one in the past to lure me out in the open. I never did find out what became of him... it's quite the shame. He was rather pretty, after all.

[And yet he sounds a bit disconnected when he talks about it -- like he's talking about someone's dog who ran away, rather than a previous lover who disappeared under mysterious circumstances. But in this case, it's not to mask any unspoken trauma -- he's just not terribly invested in the people he fucks, typically.]

[That is, unless they're particularly interesting. And he already knew Chuuya was far more than a pretty face. Which, vague drunkenness aside, is one of the only reasons he's talking about this at all.]

The rest-- well, I'm sure you've heard the rumors. It was a very unpleasant experience.
