Love mends even the broken parts
Remi’s unhappiness was tough to see, but Loren steeled himself against it. The other man’s jealousy was not exactly the Launceleyn’s fault: the alchemist had a loving husband and a family and a whole lot of friends, and if he was uncomfortable with the summoner feeling any sort of pleasure, well, that certainly didn’t feel like unconditional love. And it was entirely unfair to Loren to expect him to remain alone and single on the off chance it might upset the alchemist. They’d said this friendship might be painful, and they’d both have to learn to live with it. This was a part of that.
”I can’t exactly control what they do with it once they bite me.” The summoner could ask them, but it was ultimately down to the Ascended if they wanted healing or summoning. Besides, he was always of the opinion that the best defense was a good offense, though in this case he knew that he was almost certainly wrong.
Guess the tunnel was one more area that someone would have to keep an eye on. ”Well. Let’s hope they can’t, assume they can, and plan for the worst.” That hadn’t been his decision, but it was too late now. At the mention of what else the other man might have up his sleeve, the Launceleyn tilted his head. ”Other options?” He was curious, but if Remi didn’t want to reveal his secrets, Loren couldn’t force it.
