Some people might find the angel’s more eccentric behavior to be off-putting, but Jon happens to find those little non-human quirks of Murmur’s to be quite charming. It’s refreshing to know he’s comfortable enough around Jon to not feel the need to mask the fact that he isn’t human, and - well, Jon isn’t exactly human himself anymore, is he. Not entirely, at least. Murmur dropping the act, even for a small thing like choosing a drink vendor by scent, makes him feel a bit less lonely in his state of existence.

Then again, Murmur makes Jon feel less lonely in general. Even Beholding never made Jon feel as seen and understood as the angel does.

Approval at Murmur’s choice is given with a nod and a small pleased smile. “This looks lovely,” he says, then asks “What will you have?” He’ll be paying for the both of them this time, don’t argue.
