[Silco had already spent long nights thinking on what he would change in his life should he have an opportunity to redo it. When it came to Jinx, there was nothing that he would change, including saving her life with Shimmer. He would give her the world, and now she must navigate it on her own regardless of this fake life that they lived here. For him, this was all that was real, and he valued each day that he continued.

He would do whatever was necessary for his goals. There, here and everywhere. However, that wasn't talk for today, especially now that his eye and the surrounding scarred flesh was feeling as normal as it could again. He didn't want the distraction tonight.]

No? How fortunate for me that you value my life so deeply. [The corner of his lip tugged in a faint smile. Much like Richard, the number of people that wanted him dead were many. It was pleasant to feel wanted, even in jest.] I suppose that depends what's in that surprise crate that you lugged over here. Do I get to know the contents, or is it here to tease me with mystery? Otherwise...

[He reached up to cup the side of Richard's face with a hand, stroking his thumb beneath the younger man's eye.] Jinx will be away for at least two weeks, so you're... welcome to stay here.
