[Nick watches as Hancock short circuits for a few seconds. He'd expected this much (assuming he didn't just shut him down flat) and so Nick is happy to wait while he runs this sudden proposal through his brain. When Hancock starts speaking again, he's being careful, hedging his words to try and keep the situation neutral, but Nick knows him well enough to know what that means, even before he confirms it: Yes, but he needs an explanation before they go through with it.
By the time Hancock's done dancing around his conditional yes, Nick's smile is threatening to split his silicon. Hancock holds out his hand and Nick's smile breaks into a grin as he carefully fits the band onto the ghoul's finger. The moment it's on, Nick is just overcome with delight. Without warning his hand on Hancock's waist pulls him close and lifts him up. Nick spins them around once-twice-three times before he sets him down again.
The moment those heels hit the floor, the synth leans in and kisses Hancock with all that excited energy, pouring affection into every move. Nick's brain has a new baseline for Joy and Hancock's watching it get written in real time.]
Don't think you can disappoint me, doll, but I hear you. We can work out the nitty gritty after our party.
