[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[GM Marvel]

[OoC: When you say alone does that include your dog?  Cuz the dog would have followed you unless you tell it to wait outside your cabin.  It will do what it's told but will look up at you with puppy-dog eyes as if to say, 'Why would you want to go anywhere without me?' ]

[OoC2:  I'd like to reiterate that I LMAO at the mental image I got of Selina being dragged through the sky while tangled in a parachute, screaming, "I REGRET NOTHING!!"      ]

Tomeal is caught off guard by Selina's sudden show of appreciation.  When she kisses him, his eyes widen like saucers and he's momentary paralyzed with surprise before returning her kiss.  

After a few seconds, she slowly pulls away and whispers "For my life I owe you that and far more."

"You're wel... welcome." Tomeal replies with a hint of bashfulness in his voice.  "I have similar feelings as well.  If it weren't for you, I would have died in that gatehouse.  But you all did more than just save my life.  By joining you, I have been opened up to possibilities that Tomeal, the naive Gate Guard, never dreamed possible.  You have given my life purpose beyond collecting tolls.  I'm happy I was able to return the gift you gave me but in reality I will always be in your debt.  You're an incredible woman, Selina.  I can see why those guards asked you to lead them."
