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

Grief was a funny thing, rearing its head at the strangest moments, and as Phoebe discussed her son's first heartbreak, Liam felt a twist of wistfulness in his chest. What he wouldn't give to have his children to watch over and advise in their lives as they grew up. "I understand," he said, his eyes soft as they watched her. "Or, at least, I can imagine how much you want to fix things for him. It musst be challenging to have to watch him figure things out for himself."
The news that she would be away soon disappointed him slightly, though he'd find it difficult to say why. Perhaps it was simply that he would miss his friend while she was away. "If there is anything you need done in your absence, you need only to ask," he told her with a smile. "Am I allowed to ask about what prompted such a meeting, or is it a secret?" he asked with a laugh.
Having trouble finding time for hobbies, though, he understood all too well. Even with the abundant free time he found himself with these days, he found it challenging to find things to do that didn't mimic his old life. "You're getting better at chess," he pointed out, a crooked grin on his face. They'd been doing lessons for a few weeks, and Phoebe was catching on quickly. "But in all seriousness, you really should find some time for yourself. It's important to take care of your wellbeing."

Losing self in myself
And my demons make demands
