[Okay-- that's really cute, honestly. Not that Scott doesn't seem to have very great self-esteem, but seeing him actually flustered for a second at a compliment...

Well, it has Billy smiling wider. It's all so weird, being here, and knowing what they're going to have to do to help things. But maybe it won't be too bad if there's company like this around.]

You quoted Tolkien at me. Totally my type of guy. [He flashes a quick grin.] And okay, smart choice. We can get towels here.

[They're getting close to others now and Billy chances reaching out and putting a hand lightly in Scott's shoulder.]

So-- we might get split up in a second now that we seem to have come upon people again and we'll hopefully be getting room assignments... I should probably thank you again for coming to the rescue earlier.

[And for as guarded as Billy can be around new people, he's also not-- particularly coy. He probably shouldn't start now, all things considered. He just hopes Scott won't mind too much if he leans in to press a quick kiss to his cheek.]

So-- thanks for that. And I hope we definitely run into each other again. You know, just under different circumstances and not getting felt up by frisky plants.
