The gentle touch had Gangleri fall silent for a moment as he briefly wondered if he'd ever felt anything half as comforting in his house before. His late wife had certainly been willing to touch him, usually seductive attempts to regain his favor after some fight, or a display of affection that never felt honest whenever relatives were visiting, but never anything comforting. He supposed it had been quite some time since he'd last tried to comfort her as well though, before he'd given up. It was such a novel and refreshing gesture that he didn't even mind that his favorite bartender was trying to stop him from spoiling her.
The threat made him laugh though and Gangleri shook his head, "Ah, well I suppose I should try to pamper him then; make sure that the both of you are comfortable and relaxing. I could play music if that would keep you from exacting your cruel vengeance. Try as you might, I will find some way to pamper you, Quil. Dark and evil villainous queens deserve no less."
He reached over to give her hand a squeeze in return, considering her offer. "I'm having more fun right now trying to think of other ways to irritate you. Perhaps I could offer you a massage, act as your personal valet or butler for the rest of your stay here. Honestly I find it quite refreshing to have you here. It... adds a bit of life and brightness back to this place. You don't have to indulge me with a walk if you don't want. But if I do decide to wander off I'll let you know in case you want to come along."
