there's a fire starting in my heart
reaching a fever pitch
Letting out a huff of laughter as Abasi returned Loren’s flirtatious comment with one of the undertaker’s own (subtle though it was), the summoner let that particular strand of conversation drop. Thankfully, the other man’s reaction to the phoenix—plus the fact that the Launceleyn wasn’t upset to begin with—was more than enough to lift Loren’s spirits. ”I know. I was just teasing you.” There was a matching smile to Abasi’s on the summoner’s lips.Unfortunately, it slipped away when the conversation swung around to the rest of the Launceleyns. ”I don’t know about great trial. I’ve been through worse. And my kin have been around, and so far no fighting.” His tone was quiet, and his eyes were distant and filled with sorrow.
The other man’s response was more than sufficient to bring the Launceleyn’s mind back from where it had wandered. Grinning giddily after the kiss, he reached down to take a bite of his food. Making sure he fully chewed and swallowed, he still had that happy look on his face when he finished. ”Again, I know. I appreciated it. And I appreciate you.” He took a sip of his wine, momentarily overwhelmed by the depths of feeling he felt for the undertaker.
and it's bringing me out the dark
LOREN
