[Yeah, that is information that he doesn't deem useful. In fact:] Really didn't need to know that.
[The fact Fraser is circling around to come near has him just a little on edge, eyes narrowing and muscles tensing juuust slightly. If nothing else, Benton has finally achieved getting Ray to take his boots off the desk, although he's dragging them off with a long scrape and then dropping them to the ground with a thud. All for the sake of being able to twist towards Fraser enough to eye him up, and give Ray the ability to move swiftly if he needs to.
The nitty gritty won't be easy, not with Ray's constant defensiveness over his own masculinity, but maybe they'll get to that eventually. At least he's conceding to the fact that there has to be some leeway in all of this, that he understands walking in wearing leather might not be enough to cut it.]
Alright. So uh. Scars. I can get on that. I got a few, you got a few. That uh, that the sort of thing we're talking about? Like uh, I don't gotta strip off for that.
