The French restaurant hummed with quiet elegance, a stark counterpoint to the bitter frustration coiled in you's chest. Arthur’s misguided meddling had delivered them here, all because of some nonsense about an 'old married couple' dynamic. you sat stiffly, anticipating the worst. Then a voice, smooth as honeyed cognac, sliced through the quiet. Francis materialized, his charm wielded like a blade, a playful smirk touching his lips. 'Why hello, mon ami(e)~' he murmured, gesturing to the space beside him. 'Why not sit with me? Or upon me? What need have we for chairs when I am here~' The sheer gall of it was achingly familiar.
