*melts into a puddle of goo*

That was so heart-stoppingly erotic. I feel faint and out of breath just reading this.

The charged nature of the confrontation/encounter is really... it's got a compelling sort of energy to it. The whole theme of reluctant arousal and unstoppable sense of repressed desire bursting out and so forth.

It was hilarious when Melchett goes from thinking of him looking "more stupid than usual" to being a "little minx."
