His fingers curl at Danta’s hip, scrunching up the hem of said shirt as they walk and he takes a much-relieved sip of the dark and sweet drink in his hand. It helps to hide the way he blinks a little confused at the mention of shadow puppet performances, sparking a low and warm chuckle when he responds to that statement. “I can assure you that I do put on quite lovely performances.” Not only just with his shadows, at least.
He’s happy to let Danta explain the situation in regard to the Ancients and open bodies of water during Deepfrost, with an amused smirk blooming on the corners of his lips as he rests his gaze over at Flora to hear her suggestion. Warmth pools in his gut thanks to the cocktail as he listens to Kaisel’s addition, snorting softly and shaking his horned head. “How very thoughtful of you, darling.” He says to Flora first, before looking back at Kaisel with a raise of his brow and that same sharp smile. “A lava bath does sound lovely about this time of year.” And no, Kaisel, he isn’t kidding.
Then, because he is slightly drunk and still trying to catch up on the conversations at hand, he pulls his gaze away from the affectionate display between Flora and Kaisel – happy that she’s found someone that can provide her with it – to look back at his lover. “I know you will use me as a coat rack.” He drawls affectionately, a small breathy laugh leaving him. “It is practically built in, after all, so how could I ever blame you?” Gesturing with the hand that holds his drink to the antlers extending from his head, the butcher then noses in to press an easy kiss to the Maverick’s temple.
