Being called sweetheart made him blush, and he took a big bite of the muffin -- the bottom part was almost gone -- to give himself time to think a little bit, put his words in the right order. Rude to talk with your mouth full and all.
"I mean, that's a really broad question, though," Quentin said. "Like what kind of wants are we talking about here? Life wants? I'm holding out hope I won't be here long enough to have to make a life. Sex wants? Like, yeah, I can talk about that but I'm not just gonna be like 'well I like sucking dick,'" he said, talking in a falsetto and waving his hands around to indicate...something, presumably, "to someone who wasn't actually asking that."
"You'd be surprised how many people have expressed just that to me, pretty explicitly. Usually right before they demonstrate, but not always. But like, if you want dick-sucking to be something you do with your Dominant, letting prospects know that at some point seems like it oughta be important."
"I think...I may have misunderstood the term 'hands-off'," Quentin said, now playing with his coffee cup lid. "I sort of assumed we were talking about literal hands on or off. Is sex not the difference? Or like, at least part of the difference?"
"I mean, not the only difference? Like, I could imagine such a thing as a contract between friends who don't necessarily have sex, but don't just ignore one another. Or between people who fuck but who try not to get feelings involved--that one wouldn't work for me at all, but I'm a sentimental asshole."
"Okay, well, the point, anyway," he said, shaking his head. "Was that obviously like someone I'm gonna be having sex with I'll hopefully at some point have a conversation about what's good and what's bad. Especially if it's gonna be kinky, anyway. That's not, like, exclusive to contract partners."

The self mockery is shameless, though.
