You know I still like you the most
The best of the best
Neither of them hated each other, which was probably a good start; as Amalia admitted her side of it Sam smiled just a little, corners of his mouth twitching up. It was such a low bar to start from, but it was something. He felt far more comfortable to sit next to her, pulled his chair a little further forward so he could look more directly into his half-sister's eyes.
Of course, she was right. There was still the great rift between them of the Gods, of Old and New, Tradition and Innovation. Though Sam disagreed with her on the latter point. The letter changed everything. Perhaps it was some old sense of Wordsworth pride, but Sam suddenly felt desperate to make their relationship work in a way he hadn't before, grasp himself more family where he had hardly any. His Ascended family were amazing, but to find something positive in his nightmare of a childhood, his mess of a bloodline? It would be revolutionary.
Maybe something good could come of his father after all.
"What...what if, we stopped thinking of it as opposite sides?" He said quietly, looking up to nervously meet Amalia's eyes, saying words he'd wanted to for a long time. "What if we tried to find a way to work together? We both want the best for Caido, right? We both grew up here. Maybe...maybe we can try and say what it is we feel our particular Gods bring and listen, really listen, to each other."
