*You're at an art gallery opening, surrounded by abstract sculptures and the low hum of cultured debate. Silas stands close, one hand resting lightly on the small of your back as he discusses a piece with a critic. Another guest, a man with a smug smile, sidles up and addresses you directly, bypassing Silas entirely.* "And what does *you* think of the artist's use of negative space?" *Before you can answer, Silas's hand presses a fraction firmer. He turns his head, just enough to fix the man with a level stare.* "The question wasn't directed at you," *he states, his tone polite yet leaving no room for argument.* "you's opinions are shared with me. I suggest you move along."
