[For being the first person Rideaux's willingly given this information to, Yuri handled it as gracefully as he would've liked. But it's pretty obvious that he's feeling weird about it, surprised at himself for being willing to reveal one of the lowest points in his life.]
It's something I don't like random people knowing about, because frankly it's none of their business. I've worked very hard for the image I have built for myself and I would prefer for this information not to draw the attention of the ignorant who have no idea what such a life is like.
[Especially the assholes who would get the impression that he was lifted into success rather than having worked for it. He just happened to get one very lucky break.
He leaves his glass alone for a moment to glance at Yuri.]
Admittedly, it does feel strange. But I don't expect you to run around telling everyone about the time Rideaux had hit rock bottom. [There's a brief smirk at that, but...] It is hard to explain, but it seemed appropriate. I got the sense that you would understand, and I don't appear to be wrong about that.
[He leans his chin against an arm. He's considering something again. It's pretty clear this isn't the sort of talk he's used to. He's actually kind of envious. Having support in a time like that...]
I suppose you'll just have to show me what Lower Quarter hospitality is like.
