Faolan settles himself in beside the other man with a sigh, fastening up
his own belt more because he's certain Lancelot might say something about
it otherwise than out of any particular habit of his own. He can feel the
other man's gaze on him and so he glances up at the other man for a moment,
quietly listening to Lancelot's observations before sinking back further in
his seat and wishing that the earth might just decide to swallow him up
there and then.
When the universe doesn't cooperate -- for the second time that evening --
Faolan speaks up to answer. "It's not, really," he confirms quietly,
turning his eyes down to his hands in his lap. "But I... Wanted to go
somewhere nice, I suppose. For you. With you." He shrugs slightly,
helplessly, swallowing slightly before turning to glance out the window. "I
suppose that I've learned my lesson now though, haven't I," he says, trying
to play off the fiasco of the evening but the words are slightly too
self-deprecating for humor.
