Tell the tales of the trail of dead
Lovers learned from slower hands

Liam had never been good at concealing his emotions, and he flushed again as Phoebe noticed the sadness that had crept into his face. He shook his head, rueful and contrite. "No, of course not. I just..." He hesitated, unsure whether to or even how to give voice to his inner turmoil. But then he sighed. "Sometimes I feel guilty for having a good time. For forgetting about my family for a moment."
It was good to hear that Phoebe had some experience with self-defense; Liam strongly believed that everyone should know some basic martial arts. One never knew what could happen in Caido, and even civilians could be pulled into an altercation - as he knew all too well. "Good," he said crisply. "I look forward to seeing what you can do."
Their waiter returned for their food order, and Liam looked to Phoebe to order (ladies first and all that), sipping his whiskey as he waited his turn. "I'll have what she's having," he said after she'd ordered. He wasn't picky, and he hadn't been paying attention to the menu. When the waiter withdrew, Liam turned his attention back to Phoebe with a smile. "So, other than razor-edged petals, what other secrets do you have?" he asked teasingly. "Anything else I should be on the lookout for?"

Losing self in myself
And my demons make demands
And my demons make demands
