[Yet Aak's laughter is misconstrued. Not as a signal that the too-cutesy gesture is a weird one to adopt - but instead of as a mutual amusement of just how fortuitous this little chance meeting has turned out! Any further interactions of an old man playing cute is a reality whose blame lies at Aak's feet.
Baptiste punches at the buttons of his device until he can properly dismiss the glowing square from his vision. Then he rolls his shoulder, hand reaching to touch the tender mark of Aak's bite.
He winks, even in the face of a smile that carries a mischievous glint with it. Really, it is rather endearing. How could he deny a fellow troublemaker?]
That's a promise, then. I'll send you a picture regardless of where I'm from.
[How would he take a picture from the stocks? A mystery! One he didn't care to think through, as he is too confident he'll avoid such a fate.
With that Baptiste offers a bow to Aak once more. A flourished gesture, complete with a sweeping arm motion and a dip of his torso. Then he pops up from his showy display to grasp at his bottle of accelerant. He tips the capped bottle in Aak's direction in place of a playful salute before he's off to resume trying to save his own ass.]
