Love mends even the broken parts
Oh.
Well.
This certainly put things in perspective, even if it didn’t change anything. Given that Remi had said he hadn’t planned it out, and given the contents, Loren remained silent until he was sure the other man was done. However, there were, of course, things the summoner reacted to. Taken—he winced, since it had been taken by the Launceleyn. Why Remi reacted the way he had to the mention of the Ascended: because the alchemist was jealous, which was so far from what Loren had ever thought might be the case that literally hadn’t occurred to him. That made him blink, shock and surprise writ large on his features.
To his credit, though, when Remi held out his hand, Loren only hesitated for a brief moment before resting his hand on the other man’s. ”Friends.” It would be messy, and complicated, but then again everything with them and in the summoner’s life. So that was nothing new. And he’d rather try to figure it out with the alchemist than without him. They'd have to talk about at least some of it. And Loren would screw up again. But he'd accept the pain he received and caused, if it was accompanied by friendship.
