Her laughter made it worth his lingering shock at the announcement, and he grinned brightly back at her as her magic danced over her hair and eyes, effortless and effervescent. If it drew any stares or doubletakes from the people passing them by, Tal didn't notice. At the moment his eyes were all for his found family and the new powers that she was already exercising as easily as she breathed.
"Makin' things bigger for Frey, huh?" Tal's nose wrinkled as he bit his tongue against the grin that took on a decidedly teasing cast. "Well, th'Needle ain't Molly's, but I reckon we can figure somethin' out..." He wasn't sure how he felt about the prisoners watching from behind their cell doors, but what was the worst Stormbreak could do? Kick him out?
At least if they did, maybe he'd finally get an answer on where Sohalia was and why she wasn't answering his letters.
With nothing to lose, Tal spun off into the crowd behind Hotaru, dragged along without resistance until he could get ahead of her and spin her into an impromptu dance of their own that had maybe a bit more enthusiasm than rhythm, but that allowed them to bump into even more people! "Hey! What we really need is some music!" He whooped to her over the growing noise of the dancing crowd.
