Marcus followed the direction of Caly's suggestion, the corner of his mouth lifting. For a moment he considered it. The smell alone was enough to tempt anyone. But, he lifted the crumpled paper still stuck to his fingers as evidence, instead, offering her a smile. “I already surrendered to the first sugary thing I saw,” he admitted with a soft laugh, “and I think a second might actually kill me.”
His attention snapped back to Nova as she shifted topics with the same quick enthusiasm she seemed to bring to everything, her gravitational field pulling him in with a step towards her he didn't consciously notice. “I wrote a letter to the leaders. Figured that was the polite place to start.” His smile brightened, an idea a spark behind his eyes. “I just haven’t made it to the guildhall in person yet.”
