[ ooc; omg how dare u mix him up with your other date, Xenk!! But no, I almost do that myself at times, so if I can do it to my own damn character you are certainly excused lol ]
[ The squeeze draws Alucard further out of his own head, and he interprets it as affection. He'd be intimidated if his troubles were so obvious as to warrant reassurance; he'd be intimidated by a lot of what Xenk has gathered about him tonight in spite of much of it being freely offered. ]
Oh, trust me, it's a walk I've done many a time on my own. [ In one port or another. ] You need not worry, Xenk.
[ His free hand comes to rest atop the hilt of the short sword at his side. It's not as impressive as what Xenk is out here rocking, but it'll get the job done if anyone wants to look at him sideways. ]
But thank you, for everything. We'll have to do it again sometime.
[ As they come up to the inn, Alucard gives a few more affectionate pats to his comrade's shoulder before making to withdraw. A bit of cold air fills the gap immediately, but this time he's prepared. His smile speaks of ease. ]
