sacrifice what you are for what you can become
Loki's apparent jealousy of the necklace brings a brighter smile to Henry's face. He shakes his head in amusement at Wessex's comment, a quiet laugh following. He would've made a joke about it but he quells his voice and raises his gaze in interest as Wessex seems to want to ask him something more. At first, the insinuation is lost on Henry, but as he listens, he can feel his chest begin to puff up with pride.
He tries to contain his thrill at the offer with a straighter face. Be cool, be cool. He doesn't interject even even though he immediately wants to accept. He didn't fancy himself much of a politician but, he did know that he cared about his community and wanted to make it a better place for everyone; a place welcome to all. Longnight put a damper on things, for sure... but maybe not after this.
When Wessex's offer stands, open for him to take, he smiles in a serious manner and very earnestly states, "Wessex, of course I'll join the Council. I would love nothing more and, daresay, I think we could make a great team."
She just had to come back.
