⠀ ⠀ ⠀( a little frown, his brows creasing. ) it’s one of my best lines. gab .. just doesn’t know. i really should have found someone else, but at the time, it was between gab and lime and lime would have had my head.
〔 pulling up a stool so she could sit opposite him as he drinks, elbows propped on the countertop. 〕 i think he was being a little harsh───that’s a rather lovely line! maybe a but common, but still sweet~
⠀ ⠀ ⠀( he’s genuinely — very slighted by it. ) i used my old reliable line! “your eyes look beautiful under the moon tonight.” and he drops that on me!
〔 struggling not to laugh, shaky fist held against lips. words coming out in short bursts, 〕 o┈oh? i never realised gab could be so blunt. which line did you pull on him?
⠀ ⠀ ⠀( a hum of appreciation, small smile sent her way, reserved for those closest to him. ) i’m rusty as all hell .. sailing with the crew is great, hard to use any of my lines on anyone but shanks.
