In the Blink of an Eye

Your heroes for ghosts?

"...Mmm..." Sam acknowledged. He knew a notice was likely a good idea, but his self conscious soul cringed at the thought. People reading that he'd been attacked and had to be rescued, thinking well, of course. It's Sam. When isn't he being a wimp?

He had not heard anything of the crazy scheme either, but he supposed the people wouldn't be telling him about it. Were they all somewhere now, planning to ambush him again?

With that question in his mind he couldn't have been more eager to live with Remi. So eager that he automatically, without thought answered: "Oh no, just the one will do. I'll g-go and talk to him and we'll be over in a couple of hours. Thank you, Remi."

Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?
