Raising his eyebrows, Loren glanced up at Jigano. "My magic has been acting up too. Strange how though?" There was something annoyed about the healer's voice, but this was hardly the first time his magic had shifted unexpectedly on him, and he was getting a bit tired of it.
As the bard asked whether the Launceleyn had joined the Arcane Academy, he bit his lip. "Yes. I thought I already told you?" Finding himself unable to meet the white-haired man's eyes, Loren reached out to take the jar. Putting the paste in it, he sealed it shut with a bit more force than was necessary. "For what it's worth, after the first class I don't think you have anything to worry about in terms of Zariah amassing followers." There was equal parts amusement and exasperation in his voice.
As Jigano recounted all that had happened, the healer sighed at the end of it. Lifting his hands, he scrubbed at suddenly teary eyes. "I heard." Looking up, he finally met the bard's gaze. "I miss them too." Reaching out, he gave the white-haired man's hand a gentle squeeze. "How are you and everyone else holding up?" The question was tentative, as if the Launceleyn didn't know how Jigano might react.
