The City tries to eradicate anyone who refuses to be a cog in its wheels. So that's technically correct, but I would take it as a compliment.

[ Another compliment he'll easily give to her. A squeeze of her hand too. ]

Perhaps. I'd still like to see her grow, given the optimist that I am. But next time I see her, I'll likely just pluck it from her, much like I plucked the fish from the waters here. I'm a generous individual, but I still have my own desires too.

Oh? [ ... ] Why would she have a problem with that? Unless you do?

[ He very purposefully looks down at their hands with a smile that belies that he's more than aware of what he's been doing. ]

[ Oh, he laughs at that, actually laughs and not just the light chuckle that floats through his speech like an solitary snowflake every now and again. ]

I think comfort is underselling it, a bit. But this isn't the time for debating definitions or semantics—I don't miss chances.

[ Missed opportunities are for men with fear, men with hesitation, men with doubt; Sonya of the Yurodiviye is none of these things, even now. He pulls her closer with a tug of their hands and then leans to press his lips against hers. Like his laughter, the kiss isn't light nor is it shy, but bold and assured, an extension of himself. ]

Guilty as charged, but one can't create without breaking a few laws, a few taboos, a few people. But you know that, don't you, Quin?

[ His smile is wry, his lips brushing up against hers without meeting her in a proper kiss. ]

You'll have to forgive me for the overt familiarity, but you're the one who let me in.
