[ Ratio freezes for a moment, glancing at the other man out of the corner of his eye, but he's not immediately recognizable as a student, and Ratio relaxes just a bit, though he chastises himself for letting his guard down. But he can't find it in him to consider this a mistake, either; the other man may be a few years younger but he seems intelligent enough, and is certainly intriguing enough that Ratio can't look away. And there's that lack of self preservation as well...

No matter. Should anything happen, it will be one time and Ratio will never see him again. There is no need to concern himself further.

His gaze sweeps up and down his form as he considers the request, and then he lifts an arm in a shrug, directing him towards the table. ]

Very well. Show me how you'd hold the cue first.

( That's certainly a reaction, but Aventurine only files it away for later -- maybe he is one, and he's struck a nerve. He can hardly imagine this man teaching grade schoolers, or even high schoolers. He seems to have a low tolerance for bullshit, and from what he recalls of other people's stories of those experience, it's just full of those sorts of things.

But any thought about that is quick to flee Aventurine's mind the moment that he shrugs. Jackpot. His grin grows bigger as he moves -- bending over the table at just the right position and just the right angle to show off one of his best assets. As it were. He keeps his arms at an incorrect angle as well, an invitation for the other man to correct his errors.

It's not wrong of him, Aventurine thinks, to want to feel his hands on him. That's the whole point. )

Like so?

[ There's no doubt in his mind that the man is doing this on purpose. It's almost comical how wrong he's standing, and Ratio for a moment considers not entertaining it, but...

It's like there's a magnet inside of him pulling him towards the blonde, forgoing personal space to adjust his hips and his arms, pressing chest to back, his mouth dangerously close to his ear. ]

Like so, [ he says, his voice pitched lower, meant only for his temporary student to hear. ] The angles are what's important.

Bend yourself incorrectly, [ he continues, placing his hands over Aventurine's, guiding his arms and hips with his own, ] and you run the risk of failure.

( It wouldn't be one of the oldest tricks in the book if it didn't work, now would it? Aventurine preens a little when he feels the other man's hands on him -- he knows he's small and slight, but even accounting for that, the man's hands feel hot and large against his waist. Almost enough for Aventurine to wish he'd worn something that revealed more skin.

He'd accounted for what it would feel like pressed up against the other man's chest, hip to hip. Enough that he moves back slightly, eyes thrown over his shoulder to acknowledge that yes, he knows what he's doing.

What he doesn't expect is for the way that the man's voice would sound against his ear, low and deep, almost enough to make Aventurine vibrate with it. Fuck. Even he can't suppress the shiver that runs through him as he lets the older man manhandle him. And hell, he doesn't want to.

Following the man's instructions and directions is easy enough, for all the want that's beginning to settle low in his gut, the man doesn't make it difficult to understand. )

Low and straight, ( He does chuckle at that, because there isn't anything straight about them this evening, ) so you can have a better view of your shot, I assume.
