The book of love is long and boring
Sam took out some bags he wanted then looking through his own things, shuffled through to find some tea from the Grounds. After his recent visit he'd gotten some more, so he had plenty to give, and he'd give it happily for a chance to try tea from the Greatwood. "Thank you."
Matters of Mers were indeed interesting, but with the emotional reaction Vervain had accidentally brought up in him, Sam knew he had to explain it, as little as he wanted to. "Um...no, it's not your fault, I'm sorry." He shook his head, not knowing how honest to be at first: it was going to be an awkward conversation regardless, but he didn't know if telling the truth would make it all the worse.
Looking to Vervain, her kind eyes, he decided to tell her the whole truth. She'd never let him down with her understanding so far, after all. "It's...It's a little awkward, I suppose, but I've um...I suppose you could say I've had a crush on Zeph for a while." Wanting to sink into the ground, Sam clasped his hands together on the table hard, trying to force himself to continue. "He turned me down and it's all...settled, I just...I'm still trying to get over some of my feelings, I suppose, and I didn't know he had someone. I'm embarrassed I asked him to be with me when someone like you was there." Laughing a quite, self-deprecating laugh, Sam shuffled his feet and stared down at the floor.

No one can lift the damn thing
