"I don't think so. Even then, I mean...I'd like to think if we tried hard enough we might be able to get the Voice's attention. Perhaps. The Accepted can call down their Gods, so..." Sam shrugged loosely, unsure if his point really held any water or not. He'd summoned the Voice before, but always after drinking from an Accepted; from things she'd said in the past he felt like she could probably see where he was - so did she choose not to come, if they tried and failed?
Well, it wasn't important anyway right now, so he tried to stop thinking about it.
He did snort at the line about chafing. "I did think it was an odd choice of outfit. Trying to seduce the Prince, are you?" Sam asked, glancing at her sideways and smiling as he leaned forward to try and pull a branch down further over the entrance for more cover. Edy went about smashing rocks, which was decidedly less productive, but he didn't say anything and simply listened to her complain about sleep (or the lack thereof).
"It's hard, when it's new. But I've gotten good at...I don't know. Because I've been doing this so long now, I can lay down and just...relax myself into a mindset where I'm not as present as I am normally. It's not quite sleep, but it's the closest we can get." Leaning back, having decided the branch just wasn't coming, he turned towards her, moving his legs over and watching her hit her rocks. "But we don't have to sleep. I hope I'm not such awful company that you think you have to just to get out of it." Another joke (though a less fun one); he was on a roll.
