[Eames doesn't comment on Boxer's happiness or lack thereof; he knows he's a happy dog, if Molly saw how nervous he used to be he'd see this is like night and day, but he's not about to get all sentimental about it here.]
[The comment about licking gets a snort from him though, and he raises his eyebrows.] Well when you finish your drink, I can show you my technique upstairs.
Though I will say, I am a sight to behold when naked. [A work of art, really. Despite being covered in scars on his chest, neck, and arms, Mollymauk's entire right arm and back are covered in intricate, beautiful tattoos. The peacock tail on the side of his face is literally the tip of the iceberg in his situation. He gives Eames a smirk and takes maybe a larger sip than his usual from his glass.] But I think I'm of the same opinion.
[After all, anyone with such a social, friendly dog can't be too terrible. Molly continues to stroke the adorable dog's head.] But I suppose for someone like you, being patient is a practiced thing.
[Eames is actually slightly enamoured with others' scars, always has been. It's incredibly difficult to leave a lasting mark on him, and he could get rid of them if he wanted. Eames' scars and tattoos only stay because they're a fixture of how he sees himself rather than because of the permanence they should hold.]
[The comment on patience gets an amused snort from Eames though.] You'd be surprised. I know people much older than me who have almost zero patience.
Perhaps it's a trend, then. [Molly gives Boxer a good behind-the-ears scritching, pleased when it seems to be well-received. Dogs aren't so hard, apparently!] We're all impatient when we're young, mellow out, and then if you're fortunate enough to be ancient, you grow impatient again. Perhaps from watching everyone else moving so slowly or being stupid about the things they're rushing towards.

I didn't want to down this all in one swallow, though. I was enjoying it.

[Boxer meanwhile, is taking a seat right at Molly's feet and putting his head on Molly's knee to soak up all these pets.]
