things and how they seem

there's light at the edge of the darkness

Although Loren was better at picking up on cues than Oia’i’o was, he had to be paying attention. Unfortunately, he often got lost in his own head a lot. It didn't help that he'd just had his entire worldview turned on its head. And then there was another bit of information that it took him an embarrassingly long time to process. ”Like...they are? Rae is twins? Are twins?” The Launceleyn didn’t think he knew that, and was more than a bit confused about both the verb usage and the concept.

Then, because it seemed relevant, he gave the demi-god a slightly sad smile. ”I had a twin brother.” Although the summoner didn’t like talking about Neron, it seemed the least Loren could do. Maybe it would help the two of them bond. Then again, maybe not: Oia'i'o didn't seem to be the bonding type.

Nodding in approval at her updated language, the Launceleyn raised his eyebrows as she continued to talk about how people thought of her. ”What about your self-perceptions? Don’t those matter?” Still, he was happy enough when the conversation swung around to luxere (it helped that Oia’i’o and Astra were clearly entranced by the other, an adorable sight). Well, actually, he was far more interested in the rest of what the demi-god had to say. ”There are dragons? They have magic? Where are there swamps?” Granted, he’d seen the miniature dragons, but he didn’t think they had magic, at least not as the summoner understood it.
