"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Price gets on his knees and starts picking up the shards of broken glass "Besides, this is why I brought two bottles."

The Pride party put ideas in his head? What's that supposed to mean? Price has never even thought of trying to seduce him in any way. He has noticed Dan's attractive everything, of course, he's not blind, but there are several factors (Dan being younger, his powers, having to walk on eggshells because of him, and Price just feeling repulsive in general) that make this situation a turn off and overall he thinks that this would be something best fulfilled with an alone time fantasy rather than the actual deal. It would complicate so many things. Basically it's a no but he actually wants it, it's a 'it's better if we don't do it' rather than 'I don't want to do it', but the reasons for it concern him too much and he would rather stay silent than voice said concerns and be vulnerable even if it leads to false reassurance.

"It's just that I did not expect that."
