Maybe all you need is someone to trust
He simply listens, eyes fluttering shut as Sunjata's voice pulses through him. He's never spent any real amount of time with another Attuned and it's kind of nice. This was a side of himself he never got to share with anyone, Maeve included. And it was easier to simply feel when he didn't have his stupid human hang ups. He would take whatever comfort Sunjata gave and return it as well. No having to worry about being a man and all of that. Sunjata was warm and solid and real and he'd take it.
Don't think I've ever had a soulmate. Not sure if I believe in them. He says it kind of half-heartedly, with a bit of a huff. Love just wasn't his thing. Which makes sense, considering all the everything. Locke moves again, sitting up to look at the other cat when he turns back. M'glad you offed your dad, by the way. Fuckin' nightmare. Not that Sunjata doesn't know that but still. It was a pretty glorious moment and despite it all, Locke was glad he had been there. Really boosted his respect for the former governor. You can't change what you've already done. I'm glad Nate was able to move passed it. I imagine my time in Torchline would've been a little more boring without him. Admittedly, he probably wouldn't have come back to Torchline if it weren't for Nate. Probably would still be a dragoon. Definitely wouldn't have the litter of Ascended bites that he does now.
I don't think Maeve knows me as well as she thinks she does. It's not her fault, he's not very open with the kind of person he really is. The things he really feels. But it's best no one is really privy to that, anyway. Again, he licks the top of Sunjata's head. Then we won't talk about it. But I think you should let Nate know how you're feeling. Even a little. Think he can handle it. Or maybe he's just conflated how tough Nate seems to be in his own mind. It's fine.
The thought of going back brings up a swirl of emotions, mostly fear and embarrassment and maybe a little anger. M'not really sure what I'm going to do. Not sure I'm even allowed back. There's a little growl there, as if Maeve could really keep him from seeing his son. But the emotions are quickly replaced with a singular surprise, Really? I don't want to.. interrupt. That said, I've never been outside of Torchline during Longnight.. He's not nervous though, not at all.
