you wouldn't even recognize me anymore
not that you knew me back then
Watching the Arbieter with a mild expression as he explodes in an outburst of possessiveness, the Wraith quietly resolves to either shelve that part of the conversation for now or just let it die entirely and have him figure out the Halovians’ nature for himself. Without being a constant face in the Citadel, she thinks he’ll have his work cut out for him if he wants to reclaim the bar. Especially if Korbin doesn’t like him.
His pour is kind, but she shakes her head and pushes it towards him. “Think you need it more than me right now,” she says gently. There’s an emotional pause and in the same tone, she says, “I’m sorry,” half for bringing the bad news and half for losing a friend.
“I’m going to find Hotaru and see if she’ll come to the Climb with us - that’s what the place is called, apparently.” The Wraith stands in a single, fluid motion, unhampered by the booze and tucking her emotions in tightly. After all, LongNight will soon be upon them and they’re likely to ride the death roller coaster again soon enough. “I’ll be around if you need anything. Have Haai find Loki.”
And then she’s gone again, to let Sunjata grieve privately if he wishes.
