LOREN
Taking the proffered glass, Loren took a sip, feeling the alcohol burn down his throat. As Sunjata spoke, the summoner frowned, but remained mostly quiet. Instead, his eyes searched the panther's features.
However, eventually the Launcelyn sighed. "Having tried to push people away, let me tell you that it doesn't work, because you can't control them and their actions. If they're determined to be in your life, sometimes you have to accept that, though you control the relationship as much as they do." Then the corners his lips quirked up. "Plus, this is a small community, and you're bound to run into her. Probably best to make your peace with one another." His tone was a bit awkward, but hopefully the advice was sound.
Tilting his head, he took another sip. "What happened next? What comment did she take offense to?" Although he tried to keep his tone even, there was a sort of morbid curiosity in it.
