Liam was used to scandalized. He wouldn't blame the priest for it.
So when Riley actually answered him, Liam found himself quite pleasantly surprised. He hummed, a low and thoughtful sound. "Neither have I. I wonder if it's real or just some pretty piece of poetry from love stories." Deep down, and hell not that deep, Liam was a romantic, and he believed it was real. He wanted it to be real.
He would not comment on firsts, since his own was, er, complicated. To put it lightly.
For a moment he was silent, like perhaps he'd dropped the topic out of some newfound sense of mercy for the poor priest who he was so drawn to, so eager to tempt. But that wasn't the case, as would be obvious when the next words slipped past his lips seemingly of their own volition. "Would you like to help me find out?"
