Nate
There's a shadow just behind me
Shrouding every step I take
Making every promise empty
Pointing every finger at me
Shrouding every step I take
Making every promise empty
Pointing every finger at me
Nate felt himself relax somewhat when Sam confirmed that he did indeed sleep, he just didn’t need It, a fact that was still strange, but far easier to swallow than the idea of Sam lying awake beside him an entire night. The fact that Remi had a daughter was a little more difficult to digest, Nate looking over the other man again. He looked so young.
Moving to sit on the bed, Nate was content to listen, nodding as Sam asked to stay until Longnight was over, and grinning appreciatively at Remi when he confirmed they could. Monsters and a week of darkness sounded like some kind of horror movie plot, and he was more than happy to leave any of the actual work of protection to someone else. A pinched gaze moved up to focus on Sam, disapproval radiating from Nate when the ginger bookmaker said he was planning on going out.
They apparently had some things to talk about. Even if he didn’t want to be the one to make plans, or do preparations, he’d still like to be included in on some of them. Big ones, like Samuel going out into what he had been led to believe was (ba-ba-ba-bum) certain death.
”...I wasn’t, no.” Nate turned towards Remi after a moment, perking up. ”I think I... popped in right after it all wrapped up.” He laughed shortly, like he’d made some kind of joke. ”Can’t say I’ve heard anything good. Really hoping at least some of it is wrong.”
