i'd probably still adore you with your hands around my neck
Nodding thoughtfully, Everest shrugs ever so slightly against Isla. "We had thought of something like that. Normally with the runs the goal is to do it with as few crew as possible. Shockingly, aviator is not as sexy of a job as it sounds and we're usually understaffed." Smaller boats, mages on board, all required more bodies than they currently had.
Letting his fingertips rise buoyantly up Isla's back before pulling them down against her sides, Ever did his utmost to stay present in the conversation despite the way the feel of the Remedy's body, barred from his only by hot water and a thin layer of fabric, continually tried to vie for his attention. It was a difficult task, with how his hands yearned to see if their memory of her body was as accurate as he thought, and with the way the rising steam had her cheeks flushed in a way he'd now describe as sensual rather than just pretty.
"I suppose if you don't think you're missing out on anything." Perhaps Isla had already seen the parts of Halo that interested her, or perhaps none of it did to begin with. "I lived there for a season when I was a boy." He wrinkles his nose slightly at the memory. "I can't say I enjoyed it very much."
