"Um, hi!" Giving a nervous sort of laugh, Faelan allowed Neville to pull him close, trying not to stiffen at the touch. He was really happy to see Neville so happy, and to be so welcomed, so it wasn't that difficult. He was also relieved to see that Neville wore jeans, too.
"Thanks for inviting me." Winding his way with Neville through the crowd, he noted, "You have a lot of friends. I hope I don't look stupid. Oh, and here." He held out the bottle of brandy with a small smile and a shrug. "I didn't know what to bring."
