NIKI
"It is," Niki says easily to Flora, his smile remaining as he allows her to lead them over to the drinks. "Though I was attempting to be subtle so as to not have to spell it out." Not that he thinks he'll need to; Flora looks objectively gorgeous no matter who is looking, providing they have the benefit of eyes in their head. Releasing her so that she might collect their two mugs of cider, the boy accepts his drink with a nod of gratitude, resisting the urge to peer into it as if to break it down to its base components and ingredients.
Instead, he forces himself to take a small sip - it's sweet and crisp but sharp enough to have an eye crinkling at the corner; not terrible, all in all, especially given Niki's preference away from sweets. "A sway?" he echoes, before remembering and letting out a quiet laugh, lifting his mug to clink it with her own. "Alright. Let me see how inclined I am to sway after this, yes?"
