Vex pulled back from Regan at his words of betrayal to look him in the eyes. He was clearly punishing himself harshly for whatever had happened. His eyes were full of sadness and regret and it saddened her own heart, too. She placed a hand gently on his cheek and gave him an encouraging smile. She didn't know what had happened, so she didn't know what could be said to make him feel better.

Instead of telling him things would be okay, or that what was meant to be would be, Vex grabbed his hand tightly in hers and gave it a little squeeze. Sometimes just the action of reassuring someone you were there for them was better than all the mumbo jumbo words of it all. Besides, Vex had never been one to be good with words. Not to mention, she'd made some pretty awful choice since Red Rose, too.

"C'mon," she said, giving his hand a little tug. "Let's get some fresh air." This way, they could both talk and get things off their chest if they needed too without the audience. If neither of them was ready to talk, they could simply enjoy the beauty of this enchanted place and forget about the world for a while.

Ren's glass clinked against hers and he brought it to his mouth. Even with the lingering taste of that hot chocolate, the drink was delicious. "I'm Ren," he said with a grin. It would seem that his features were stuck in a permanent grin like that, but it was contagious.

"So, Daralis," he spoke her name almost seductively, "Where ya' comin' from? Where ya' headed?" He took another sip of the drink and pulled himself up to sit on the counter, immediately laying on his side on the bar, propping himself up with one arm, to show off his sculpted muscles.
