Bryn/Jacob
"Can you afford to be distracted by me if you are to protect whatever this precious treasure is. I'm not much of a thief so I promise that you can trust me to be near this treasure, but then, of course, a thief would say that, wouldn't he." Jacob chuckled warmly. Beyond the gifts, which he did appreciate, he truly was enjoying his time with her. She was easy to talk to and he wasn't so eager for it to end just yet.
"I don't want to take up all of your time and attention if there is something you need to do, but I don't mind going with you if you want the company. I don't often have such excellent company." Maybe that wasn't strictly true, not because she wasn't wonderful company, but because Jacob tended to surround himself with people he liked when he had the option and he tended to like people who were good company.
