He wants to joke about that, but he doesn't. He doesn't do much of anything, really, other than kiss back until the kiss is broken, other than tightening his hands around the fabric of Alucard's suit, other than forgetting that the rest of the hall exists. He can't make a joke at Damien's expense, because the vampire may as well not be here. He isn't Alucard or Sypha, and so he probably doesn't exist right now.
He doesn't need to care about him. He doesn't need to keep one eye on him the whole night, knowing that he will be displeased and that that's going to show itself somehow and the last thing he wants to become is a weakness that someone can strike at Alucard through. It doesn't matter, because he's safe.
He doesn't speak for a moment after the kiss breaks, letting himself just be a warm weight in Alucard's arms. When he does talk, it's breathless and quiet and accompanied by a small, genuine smile. ]
