Will couldn't help holding his breath when Molly took his hand again, not just because every time they touched there was still an electric snap between them, like a circuit closing, but also in anticipation of feeling her magic, of feeling more of her. There was a part of Will that hoped, eventually, he'd be able to feel her power all the time, without restraint. Not to a point where either of them were in danger, but just enough of a connection that Molly wouldn't feel like she was holding an important part of herself back.
Will could feel the moment when Molly began drawing in her energy like a warm hum along the length of his arm. He could taste it at the back of his throat, almost like burnt spices, tingling like taking a sip of alcohol. The sensation grew and it made Will tremble a little, his heartbeat ticking up and an odd feeling of arousal stirring in his belly. She was powerful, and Will knew she was shielding the brunt of it from him, but he wondered if using her talents made her feel the way it was making him feel right now.
As Molly continued to draw her energy in, the feeling of it started to coalesce in Will's chest, like a little ball of heat behind his heart. It makes his pulse skip and his breath hitch, but Molly's steady voice keeps him grounded, and eh can feel power flowing through them, cooling him as Molly sends her magic over the bowl. After another moment, the power ebbed and then vanished, leaving behind the normal low level buzz of their connection.
Will licked his lips, raising his eyes to Molly's. "Thank you," he said softly. "For sharing that with me." He squeezed her hand and took the amulet, crossing to where Snickers continued to sleep. He stooped and removed the dog's collar, threading the amulet onto the ring of it before he snapped it back around Snickers' neck.
"Will the magic eventually run out? Or will it always stay strong?" he asked as he walked back to Molly.
