In tow, following in Taneth's wake, they left the Inn and walked down the porch steps. Slipping up along side the bouncy blonde, he placed his hand to the small of her back again, lightly guiding her to the area near the alley where he'd parked the Austin-Healey. Forest green with tan leather interior and right-hand steering, he opened the left side door and helped her into the passenger seat. "It's a nice night out tonight, let's do this right, huh?" Proceeding to unlatch the ragtop, opening the driver's door and climbing in with a raffish grin, he let his gaze linger a moment in admiration, hand at the ignition. "You look good in here, petite."
The engine turned over with a well-tuned purr, and he shifted the car into gear, wheeling onto the road then slowing to allow a coach and four the right of way. This was nice, he reflected. It had been a long time since he'd just gone out on the town with a companion. Plenty of sweat-tossed nights and still-dark morning farewells, but dinner, conversation and dancing" No, that was something the "old man" frowned upon. Familiarity was dangerous. At the thought of his employer, his face darkened and full lips pulled a brief scowl.
"So, this Tasha gave you some mace" That was she the other night, right, the silver-haired elf" She looking out for you, ch're, afraid I might get a little too frisky?" His chuckle rumbled from his chest, warm and merry like the twinkle in those sky-clear eyes as they drove through Rhy'Din's night streets towards the University area and the College Green district.
