Only a Look and a Voice

Samuel

The idea of weighing down Zariah's foot with his cube made Sam smile. Hypothetically, it would work, which only made it all the funnier.

The smile left his face when he noticed Remi stiffen as he touched his hand; Sam withdrew immediately. He had thought they were at a level of friendship where such touches were just affectionate and understood. He did not want to appear as if he were attempting to come inbetween Remi's marriage, didn't want to lose the friendship of either Remi or Ronin (maybe Ronin a little bit, after what The Voice had said).

"...I suppose you are right. Still doesn't mean it has to be us that do it, though." He pointed out, but he knew he wasn't going to get Remi to agree to his plan alrready. "I just...wish everything could be simple for at least a month, you know? Things never seem to go right for long enough. I...I was thinking, if the storms around the Greatwood stop, I might go further. What...do you think about that?"

And it's hard to write about being happy
'Cause the older I get

I find that happiness is an extremely uneventful subject
