The headache-inducing shenanigans knew no end.
Rachel always struck up conversation with Liam, somehow never running out of things to involve him in despite the floating tent's limited resources.
The topics ranged from wine and food to jewelry and clothes that Rachel sought Liam's opinion about, using those excuses to learn about his tastes while sharing bits about her life.
The jewelry and clothes part also came after Liam's enduring silence about his own life, forcing Rachel to learn about him through indirect methods. She never changed attire, but that wasn't out of self-restraint or decorum.
Uriah and his conflicting anger kept Rachel in check, on top of being the other side of those shenanigans. He scolded Liam whenever he tried to refuse Rachel, but his fury skyrocketed once he accepted her attention.
Basically, Liam was damned if he did and damned if he didn't, but things eventually clicked, turning his headaches into bittersweet warmth.
