[Yes, that was the point - that really almost anything he could show her would be new to her. The emotion his excitement gets in response is bittersweet; the idea of it makes her happy, too, but there's a lot of sadness mixed in with it, too. She's ready to vaguely talk around this concept, but not quite ready to talk about this like it's actually happening. 'We' is met with a little resistance.]
Well. Excitement is a quality with pros and cons. [. . .] What sort of places would you go?
[Scoff! A scoff! At the idea that excitement has cons. it does not. No cons to be found.]
Well, I mentioned the month off in Nicodranas. Then I suppose I've got to see the rest of the Menagerie Coast, Port Damali and such. And I've never seen Rexxentrum! Capital of the Empire. Supposed to be quite the sight.
[Neither has Molly? He can't help that much. He isn't really that educated about the world, so he just mostly knows names and rumors, things the Nein had mentioned or pointed out on a map when he was nearby. But he reels it back a bit.]
Beau showed me Nicodranas, when she was here. In the thing.
[And that's fond. There's a shade of sadness to it, of course, but ... he's mentioned it so much before now, it feels like he's sort of hanging onto it a bit. like some sort of wish talisman.]
Little port town. By the beach - kind of rocky, looked like? But nice. Different from the beach here, rougher round the edges. Market stalls and shops and such, not a huge place, but I think everyone is going to be . . . very bright. Like me! Hells, I might even fit in. Going to have find something loud to wear.
[There, more interest at that. Even though this whole concept might be a little overwhelming for someone who has only seen the one beach, they're still just playing pretend, so it just sounds fun in a far away kind of way.]

I do like the beach here. It's nice.
