“True enough… And I have always been a firm believer in practice after the fact if things don’t work out perfectly.” He added with a small gesture, following suit as Ignis ordered another apple cider to order another drink for himself as well, even if he should probably ease off before he tried to go home. Even if he was rather functional, it was still a poor idea. “At least if one gets the chance to, that is…” Not everyone was so forgiving of mistakes or slip-ups, in his experience. He couldn’t help but muse to himself that Rhy was at least more forgiving than some he’d come to know… He just hoped he never found the limit.

The compliment gets a more thoughtful hum, tilting his head slightly. “Mm… Thank you for saying so. I certainly tried to and succeeded that time. Though we have promised that further additions to the house will be a team effort, which is rather exciting to contemplate.” So no more surprises for the house (aside from the roses, he supposed) for now.
