Tal held his breath as Flora considered his offer, pale eyes steady but hiding his worries that maybe the map had been too much? But at least it gave him room to haggle. Still, Flora kept him waiting until his face started to turn a concerning shade of light blue beneath his brown skin before she agreed to his price.
All of it.
All of it??
His face broke into a broad grin as he drew in a gulp of air, pale eyes bright. "Thanks, Flora! It's been good doin' business with you, too!" He took her hand in a firm grip and gave it a solid shake, beaming. "Cheers!" This time he offered his glass first, and it wasn't even shaking as he clinked her own and took a more moderate drink of celebratory vodka.
