A slight hesitation slid over Canali's face at Drayton's words. Though they made sense, she couldn't help but to disagree. No words slid from her lips to echo in the air between them. "Like a brother" signified a close friendship and the idea that they would always be friends. Yes, friends were chosen family, but they were also family who you adopted.
Frowning at Drayton's choice of words about her significant other, Canali blinked. "Excuse my bad memory, but how many years do you have on your belt now?" The number just wouldn't come to mind. Canali herself had nineteen years, soon to be twenty in summer, on her cake. Having really no way to celebrate her birthday, Canali wondered if a local tavern would take a small fee and Canali could make a cake. Probably not. Besides just that, her father's birthday was the next day. Yes, Canali would definitely have to at least do something for the upcoming birthdays.
Snorting lightly at Drayton's words, Canali didn't shrug off the arm around her shoulder. Yes, she was uncomfortable at the contact, but figured it was just a friendly gesture. At least, she hoped Drayton wouldn't pick-pocket her. "To do what?" Even though she asked, Canali made her way to several booths, overseeing wares and buying a couple items which were shoved unceremoniously into her backpack. A small size of black cotton pants were bought, along with thin leather apron. Several strange looks were given to her by the merchants. Obviously cooks in Sunberth were a strange sight, especially with the city being such a bloodbath.
