[ the warmth of his hand, the press of lips to Molly's knuckles, are like a singular log gifted to a man who can't swim. the tiefling breathes in sharply, clouds all but vanishing from his eyes. ]
Spoil me? [ he could kiss Hugo for this, holding tight and grounding him. ] Love, you're the one who ought to be spoilt. You only just arrived and deserve the best gifts this city can give you.
[ the grip on Hugo's hand relaxes a little, the tension in his shoulders melts away. he cocks his head to the side, chains softly jingling with the movement. whatever memory it was that was trying to steal him away has passed, freeing Mollymauk from it's clutches. ]
The city has some delicious shadows hidden within it as well as some shining jewels. Whenever you want to hit the town just say the word.
As far as I'm concerned, The city has already given me the best it can offer.

Then I say we go and do so in a few days time, hmm? A little adventure for just the two of us where we can explore. If we'd like to avoid the day, we can do it at dusk. I'm hardly a morning person, to anytime noon and after are far better in my opinion, regardless of the sun's feelings on murder that day.
[ Their hands are brought back down again in case Molly wanted it for drinking more of the absinthe. ]
