If she ever decides to ask him about it again, he might be willing to let her in, though he doubts he would give her all the details. At least not right away. It really was a rather complex story and he’s not sure he has the strength to go through it all. Besides, it seems they’re both here out of curiosity and for a want of a little companionship. He hardly wants to ruin the mood with the more recent details of his life.
“Thank you,” he replies as he sits himself down in front of the fire. He stretches out his legs towards the fireplace and crosses his legs at the ankle as he waits for her. Taking the glass from her when she returns, he smells the liquor first, a wonderful aroma wafting up from the glass causing him to close his eyes in delight. “Yes, I imagine this is the perfect spot for reading. I used to enjoy a similar pastime when I was younger.”
He’s a little surprised when she tucks herself in against him, but he tries not to show it. He is aware of what they had been discussing over the messages and what there plans were here tonight, and yet. He relaxes almost instantly though and even puts his free arm around her as he sips lightly at his drink. He can’t help but notice how well she fits at his side.
“The first time I realized I had a true friend.” He doesn’t even need to think about it. Friendship wasn’t something that had come easily to him before that, but Mobius had changed everything. “As you can imagine, I was not a popular person for most of my life. It is only recently I have found true friendship in my life. It changed everything.”
