Sam may have felt like a bully, but Wessex didn’t; the ex-Queen knows full well that Loren can’t keep his mouth shut and based on the title of the work, this isn’t something that should be talked about before it’s ready. If he’s hurt by it, it’s the consequence of his own actions. She spares the Launceleyn another absent-minded nod farewell, waiting for him to venture beyond eavesdropping range until she continues.
Earlier in the year, she might have said this wasn’t a good idea - but as no one came to tear down the painting Bastien made and the Voice hasn’t done anything “bad” lately, it’s probably a safe way to provoke a conversation. “So. What’s prompting this?”Can’t remember whether or not Sam’s revealed anything about his troubles with others she questions, sitting back down in her original chair. And then a pause and a little side-eye glance. “Were you the one that posted about the Blight on the Notice Board?”
If this is Sam’s version of rebellion, she’ll take it. And run with it, as far as they can go.
