He's laughing in delighted mischief when Phillip presses their mouths together, the sound turning more purring as he dives deeper into the kiss.
"Well, if you're making a checklist," he deliberately misunderstands a bit, "then we'll just have to make sure we mark off all of them. Scandalous, probably, but if I cared about propriety, I assume I wouldn't be here." It's a joke, but it's also not a joke. He's basically just said he's down to fuck across every part of a lonely, insane man's dying dream palace. But said lonely insane man both did try to kill him and also, Gustavain has siblings he'd grown up with. Sometimes, doing something specifically to piss them off is really just another form of love.
Or grief, he thinks, though getting drunk at his sister's grave and yelling at the sky is a bit different from fucking your once and current lover in your dead sibling's memento mori, even before considering Gustavain was the one who killed him.
Look, he's not been known for his reverence in any lifetime.
