Not everything, [ he shrugs. ] You're ignoring that second part of my statement. Attraction plays a part, but reading someone's personality does as well. In this case, knowing that Jon isn't retaliatory means that he's the perfect person to call a cocksucker. If you said that to one of our retaliatory assholes like, hmm, that ridiculous Flint man, you'd just get punched.
[Henry is drunk. And because he's drunk, he's actually acting like a normal person. The walls are down, Trixie is gone, and Dorian brings out the part of him that actually longs to fit in. So he laughs, pulling his feet up.]
You can enjoy how someone looks and not be attracted to them! [ Dorian laughs, shaking his head as he points out. ]
For instance, I like it when you smile. Don't want to fuck you, absolutely know you would kill me if I suggested it, but you've got a lovely smile that brightens up my mood.
[Instead of arguing that, instead of trying to process what that might mean, he gets that urge, again, to fit in, to try and not be the odd man out once again. So he sits up and sends a message.]

He may not retaliate, but he would be very surprised.
