[He sure does get her a lot of jewelry, huh. To be fair, what better thing to get the most beautiful woman in the whole world than things that will make her even more beautiful? Lup is already the crown jewel in Barry's long life. Nothing wrong with even more sparkle, right?]
Right, 'course. Not half bad.
[Her teasing words aside, Barry can tell she likes it. It's a correct assumption - making the necklace hadn't been easy. More than a few days were spent sitting outside in the freezing cold in secret, practicing the enchantment that would suspend the water in an icy shell in the shape of a crystal of pure ice, and even more time had gone into perfecting the temperature. Transmutation isn't his strong suit by a long shot, but he's nothing if not resourceful. Lots and lots of Prime Hadriel Ice had gone to waste trying to craft jewelry fit for a queen.
A real shame.]
Anything for th'lady. [Setting his punch aside, Barry accepts the necklace and - as elegantly as he can, which isn't saying much in his state - fastens it around her neck, letting it drape over her sharp clavicle, the ice gems a stunning contrast to her dark freckled skin, the center pendant resting picture perfect in her cleavage. He takes the opportunity to plant a soft, warm kiss to the back of her neck, right at her hairline.
