[Siffrin leans on him, seemingly apropos of nothing, and it sends a little thrill through him. A spark of giddiness that shortens his breath and one moment and lengthens it the next, instilling a particular feeling of safety that only Siffrin can inspire in him. He's still not used to it! And it just makes him so... so happy. He's relied on. Easily. Seen as someone they can just reach out to without even asking, and it's barely been twelve hours. That means so much to him.
He could say as much, and later he probably will, but for now he ought to make good on that "summer rain" vs "deluge" thing he just promised them. Still holding one hand, he wraps his other arm around their back and squeezes them in a hug, letting out a little hum of satisfaction.]
Heh! Guess that's true.
[His squeeze relents to a gentle hold, fingers trailing on his back in a bid to not let go quite so quickly.]
Hmm... much as I personally could stand here and hold you all day, if you let me keep this up, we'll be in Dormont for another week. [He pats his back, takes a second to apply one last fluffing to that bright hair of his.] Ready to go lay ourselves at the Madame's mercy?
