I know. And you've never taken me for granted. This is just -- this is the way things should be, [ Jaime says warmly, giving her a kiss on the cheek, his facial hair scratching against her. It's true. All of it. It is the way it should be. It should be taken for granted in a way, because it should be expected. But she's also someone who's never made him feel like he was being taken for granted, as though someone would accept what he'd do, what he'd say without trying to see who was underneath it all.

From upstairs, Ruka will hear a muffled: ] Hey, man, we just wanna eat. I'll double your tip if you just, like... go.
[ By the time she gets back down, Jaime's seated on the couch again, cutlery and plates out and a bevy of food laid neatly out on the coffee table.
Jaime's already got a mouthful of pakora. ] Mmf, [ he says artfully, waving at her. ]
