Milly almost flinches as you pull yourself from your defeatist melancholy and are brazen enough to lean in for a kiss. She remains rigid for only a moment before softening into your embrace and kissing you back with equal parts relief and affection. Then the pirate pushes against you and disengages, letting you breath freely and aching for her touch.
"Uh uh, I'm still mad at you Master Brightland. Don't think that making puppy eyes and acting all sensitive is going to get you off easy. You're going to have to work if you want my fine ass anywhere near your bed again."
Somehow you knew it was never going to be this easy. Now that the emotional crisis has passed, Milly has firmly entrenched herself in the righteously outraged territory of lovers' spats. You're still in the dog house. Knowing how hard-to-get Milly normally presents herself, you can only guess at what it might take to earn her forgiveness.
"I suppose I can't reasonably order you to stay away from "that other woman", can I?... Speaking of which."
Milly stomps over to the entrance and calls in Telai, who hesitantly arrives, clearly apprehensive about entering into a lovers' quarrel. She gives you a look that clearly asks where she stands in the tangled mess that is your love life, but Milly gives no opportunity to clear the air, pulling over a table and plopping down with the air of one calling a meeting to order.
"I figure we should get to work on our plan of attack.," She states imperiously. "The men are clearly still reeling after Nat's little announcement, but we can't afford to sit around twiddling our thumbs until they get their heads screwed on straight."
