CHULANE
He'd never want to pressure her into anything she didn't want to do, and besides, he'd had a glimpse at the power of the supernatural forces at play in this world - if he could avoid such confrontations moving forward, he would haha like that'll ever happen. He appreciated that she was willing to be there for him, that with the assurance of double- and triple-checking the safety of the event first, they could both go, experience and hopefully enjoy the event this year.
He echoes her laughter with his own soft chuckle at her reaction, grinning a shit-eating grin for a moment before it softens into something vaguely confused for a moment as he tries to identify this Lily. "Oh," he said softly, before clarifying, "the red-head?" He'd noticed her, inasmuch as he'd noticed everyone who attended, though the majority of his attention had been on Kia, and Deimos, and the 'step-father' figure who he'd not met yet but felt a great deal of sorrow for regardless.
The funeral was at the forefront of his mind again, the weight of the day settling over the room once more. Putting his own cup of water aside on the table, he reached to hold her hand in his again, thumb trailing along the back of hers. "You are very kiss-able," he commented softly, his mouth quirking into a ghost of a smirk, as he tried to navigate the complicated and heavy emotions of the day.
