Love mends even the broken parts
Apparently they were dancing around one another. Loren sighed. Maybe Hotaru’s accusation of him as posturing was more right than he cared to admit. ”Sorry. It’s been a long season.” And they hadn’t even it made it to LongNight, which was supposed to be the hardest part of it. Given how much it had already sucked the summoner didn’t even want to begin to imagine how much worse it was going to get. ”And I’ve been having a rough time of things. But that’s no excuse. You’re new, and I should be doing my best to welcome you.” Although his posture and expression didn’t change, there might have been an almost imperceptible softening around the edges. He was tired, both from dealing with people and his life.
However, he shouldn’t take that out on a stranger.
She explained her old world, but nothing about it sounded familiar to him. That didn’t mean there weren’t others, it just meant he wouldn’t be able to figure it out from the broad strokes she’d given him. ”I’m sorry.” The sorrow and sympathy would hopefully be apparent. They’d all lost a lot, that much was true, but from her words it seemed she’d lost more than most.
As Hotaru then straight up refused to reveal information to him, he sighed again. ”I have no intention of harming you and yours. I’m trying to help, actually. The blighted need to be healed, and as it stands they are a danger to themselves more than anything else.” He firmly believed that, though he obviously couldn’t convince Hotaru of anything she didn’t want to hear.
