Raju's expression doesn't so much as flicker when Francis cups between his legs, not with all the warning those questions had given. A neat way to illustrate the game for him, and if those are the rules, Raju is going to win.
Or at least make Francis fight for it. Francis wants victory here and so Raju wants him to have it, but showing nothing is a skill Raju's spent a large part of his life developing, and a recent part of it practising almost constantly. But Francis hasn't seen that, has he? Francis has seen more of him than any one person, but has he ever seen this part of him?
It hardly matters now; by starting this, Francis has already asked to see it.
"Sir," he says evenly. It's the only answer he can give, in the roles set: an acknowledgement without protesting, or anything that might be taken for back talk. A response without a response at all. He doesn't step back, or move, or look anywhere.
