[Hancock complains after declaring his ring choice romantic and Nick's first reaction is a gravelly chuckle. He thought it was a bit on the nose, honestly. Making a ring out of the lining of his artificial heart isn't exactly a subtle metaphor. He's glad that Hancock finds it as romantic as he did.]
It's not a contest--
[His protest is cut off when that heel perches on his leg, sending the draped sequin fabric riding up Hancock's thigh and pooling where it joins his hip. That is--certainly a good look. His request hits a moment after he says it, when Nick catches back up, and the synth huffs another bemused chuckle as he takes the ghoul's ankle and the back of that shoe into the careful grip of his skeletal hand. His good hand, feels along the strap until it finds the buckle and takes its sweet time doing so.]
Well, one more thing we agree on: rings made out of viscera? Hard pass.
[He can undo the strappy heel blind, and he finally does, pulling that shoe off and twisting to set it on the floor by one of his chair's legs. He assumes the second heel is incoming, and then probably a foot massage, but he is still floating on cloud nine. Hancock could ask him for just about anything right now and Nick would endeavor to give it.]
I was thinking about rings and I kinda hoped for something a little...peculiar. [His bashfulness doesn't make a full return here, but it brushes the surface again.] Ring's meant to go on the left hand and mine isn't...so good for wearin jewelry. So whatever it ends up being, think I can talk you into welding it in place?
