the same old things expecting something different

The shifty comment certainly does bring a low chuckle from the Flood, even as Tal seems to be tense as can be. At least, until the realization that the brothels weren’t entirely for sex. Especially as the idea of it combined with the changing rooms could also be utilized as a therapy session for those dealing with memories or histories that needed help getting through the events.

It doesn’t matter in this specific moment as he offers a bit of information to Tal, flashing him an easier smile. While he understands, and he knows his track record with the Valkyrie like the back of his hand, they’ve grown since then. He’s proven himself. She has his heart, but the rest of him is Frey’s to offer.

“No need to apologize.” He rumbles, before he steps back and stretches a little, turns to thank Landry and Varian for their help, and gestures toward Tal to lead the way lest he crawl out of his skin from his own awkwardness.

but by now we know it's never gonna change
i'm not trying to complain, i'm just saying it's a waste
