Her laugh stirs some satisfaction, in amongst the otherwise desolate landscape of dreary emotions. Though the world would never feel like "normal" again, at least they could pave a way to a new normal, a normal where the palace no longer stands and Weaver no longer smirks from behind the bar.

At her display of teeth some bizarre recollection of Neron jumps to the forefront of his mind, though he laughs softly with her for the moment, pressing another kiss upon the tip of her nose - simply unable to resist given the proximity and the attempts at playfulness.

"I offered him to bite me if he ever needed it, and he seemed surprised." His gaze sought hers, genuine innocent curiosity on his face. "Any idea what that's all about?"
