“Do you like it?” Rini asked him.  “If I weren’t your brother, would you add it to your collection?”

            Absently sweeping his hair behind his ear, Remin nodded.  “I’d hang it on my wall and get off to it.”

            “Ha!”  Rini sounded triumphant.  “I knew I could do it.  I knew I could be a good model.”  He prodded Talin in the ribs; Talin smacked his hand away.  “Would you hire me?  Would you recommend me?  If I wanted to do it again?”

            “You’d be a good model,” Talin said.  “If you wanted to do it again, you could.”  Coming from him, it was a tremendous compliment, which was probably why he kept his words and tone casual.

            Rini grinned.  “I probably won’t, but I like knowing that I could, if I wanted to.”  His fingers tugged at Remin’s hair.  “What about you?  You want to be a model?”

            “Not particularly.”  Remin sighed.  “I’d like to be on my back for a naked man, though.”

There's a line in this chapter that always makes me a little lightheaded:

Banok’s body was hard with muscle, his shoulders broad, his thighs thick, his tiny silver shorts straining at the seams to contain his muscular ass and the bulk of his full, heavy genitals.  Looking at him, Rini couldn’t think of a thing except submitting to him and letting him do, have, and take whatever he wanted.  It seemed impossible that Remin had used to keep him on a leash.

I mean, it's not like we needed further proof that Remin is only slightly less sexually gifted than Kudorin (post ascension, of course; Remin had everyone beat when they were all teenagers), but still. Rowr.
