Letting his eyes flicker back to his attire, Kirev paused only a few seconds before glancing out the window of the penthouse apartment building. His eyes glanced over the San Francisco Bay, the view of Koit Tower in the distance. He could see the bare edges of the Golden Gate Bridge to his left as well, via the giant picture window overlooking the business district and the Ferry Building as well as that more stunning view to the northwest. “You almost ready?” the human said, his eyes studying Kirev’s back critically. Kirev nodded, using the human version of the mannerism. “I am ready.” He turned as he said it, tugging down on his dark brown jacket to straighten it over the white dress shirt. He walked towards the human as he did it, pulling lightly on his cufflinks and sleeves next to straighten those too and watching the other look at him. He could feel flickers of the human’s thoughts, enough to know he was thinking about sex as he looked at Kirev in the suit. Kirev pretended not to notice.
