LOREN
At the worried look on Oliver’s face (and the gesture, one the summoner was very familiar with), Loren smiled gently. ”Don’t worry about it. I probably would’ve woken up soon anyway.” Even though he was mostly over many of his traumas—though he’d never be completely free of them—he was still plagued by nightmares. Luckily, he’d gotten used to operating on too little sleep. Nowadays, it didn’t even bother him when he didn’t get a full night. Besides, after LongNight he was filled with a great deal of energy.
The water had heated enough, so the Launceleyn took it off the stove and poured them both a mug. He slid the other man’s over, before Loren blew on his own. At Oliver’s nervous chatter, the summoner gave another soft smile. ”You’re welcome.” It was nice to have others staying at the Manor. When he’d first returned, it had been terrifyingly empty, and the loneliness had gotten to even Loren before too long.

but I've been down here before
and I know the way out
